Is your DNS Patched? Hot hot hot security issue

Is Your DNS Patched?

In case you have been living under a rock for the past month you have most likely heard about the DNS cache exploit recently discovered by Dan Kaminsky.  This might be one of the most severe flaws discovered as it was cross platform affecting everything from Windows to Linux, UNIX, Cisco IOS etc....  It was so big in fact that all the major vendors worked together to get the patch issued on the same day.  The flaw would allow an attacker to insert a malicious DNS record into the cache.  As an end user you type in www.technet.com and rather than get the proper IP address the cache delivers the malicious IP address sending you to ????  You can find out more on the details of the flaw at Dan's blog.

You should also make sure that you are patched.  Make sure that your upstream ISP DNS servers are patched by calling them or using Dan's DNS Checker at the top of his website.

So why all of a sudden a rush to ensure you are patched?  Well the patches issued by the vendors have been reverse engineered and exploit code has been published!  Dan has said many times that this is an extremely easy to launch exploit that could be implemented in seconds.

MS08-037 - Vulnerabilities in DNS Could Allow Spoofing (953230)

KB953230 - Vulnerabilities in DNS could allow spoofing

Go. Read. Patch. Now.

And when you are done, copy and paste this blog post to your blog, email it to your IT Pro buddies, get the word out!

If you have links to the patches from other vendors, please leave a comment with the URL!

I Bought an Xbox360 - the Podcast

http://landofsilly.mypodcast.com/2008/07/Bought_and_Xbox360-126579.html

Sing along folks.  It's the best way to drown out my voice!

Xbox360

Sung to "Flavour of the Week - American Hifi" - cheap at the local online music store "eh?"

My gamebox broke, I'm so damn bored, I'm countin spots upon the wall.
I played it long, for 12 months straight, Can't wait to play again.
I've been at ebGames all day long, up and down that wall so tall, I've that VISA card out now

Atari, Nintendo, Sega and Playstation 2.
I've owned them and used them, I'm runnin' out the door to get
an XBOX 360 right now.

I've set it up, the cables linked.   I've got wifi through the room.
The games they rock, I'm buyin' stock, cuz I can't stop the sonic boom.
The sound it shakes apart the floor, and all my friends they want to play, they're lined up right

outside my door.

Vic-20 and Tandy.  Apple and Coleco too.
I've had them and used them I played them until they blew apart
I bought an Xbox 360.

--- cool scary solo time ---

My XBOX 360, it smokes the house away

It's so cool

I just drool

I can't fool

I missed school

My XBOX 360, theres goes the power bill

No lights on

No power

But at least I can proudly say.

I own an XBOX360.

Yeah an XBOX360

There go the lights....

I am Caffeinated - Podcast Version

http://landofsilly.mypodcast.com/2008/07/I_am_Caffeinated-126508.html

With HUGE apologies to the Ramones and "I Wanna Be Sedated"

"I'm gonna be Caffeinated"

Twenty-twenty-twenty more coffees to go,  I am caffeinated
The server has crashed, I need to stay up, I am caffeinated
Just drop me on the rack, with Timmies from a friend
Pour about a gallon, drive me round the bend
My body is a shaking, this might just be the end
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa!

Twenty-twenty-twenty more coffees to go,  I am caffeinated
The network is down, No sleep for me now, I am caffeinated
The client is a screaming, he's a bloody pain
Get him outta here before I go insane
My fingers are a shaking, so's my freaking brain
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa!

Twenty-twenty-twenty more coffees to go,  I am caffeinated
They want their mail now, I'm not allowed home, I am caffeinated
Just roll me a in a wheelchair, I can't stand on my feet
I'll take a double double, my body is so beat
My fingers fell right off, my mouth takes just like peat
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa!

Twenty-twenty-twenty more coffees to go,  I am caffeinated
My eyes are bloodshot and can't walk at all, I am caffeinated
I'll take it in a cup, I'll take in a glass
Pour it in me now, I'm laying on my ass
Sorry for the lyrics, the words were rather crass
Oh Whoa Oh Whoa Oh Whoa!

Type-type-typea Type-type-typea, I am caffeinated
Type-type-typea Type-type-typea, I am caffeinated
Type-type-typea Type-type-typea, I am caffeinated
Type-type-typea Type-type-typea, I am caffeinated

Hyper-V in Server 2008 - The THEME SONG!

I keep telling these people at Microsoft they need theme music for their stuff.   Someday they'll listen... SOMEDAY!

Sung to Hyperactive by Thomas Dolby - Buy the MP3 today or better yet his amazing library!

Hyper-V - Theme Song

Tell me about your system

I was trapped and stuck inside,
a datacentre deep and wide
Trying to hold back from the noise and heat
A symphony of wind and sun,
God forbid it was no fun
wondering what I could do to get it beat
Then I quickly glanced online,
for all I had to me was time
and a light it came upon my screen
With a server on the rack,
I began my deep attack
and i virtualized it all as one!

And nobody saw them go....
And nobody saw them go.....
And nobody saw them go.....

and now they're Virtualized away!

Hyper-v they're hid away
Hyper-v my drive Array
Hyper-v it came and saved the day

and nobody saw them go.....

"So what is your power bill this month?"

And nobody saw them go.....

"What was our hardware budget last year?"

Virtual, Virtual, virtual, virtual, virtualize me now

Powercords, thrown away
Cooler now, so I can play
Space time get more done
Chillin' now and havin' fun
in Server 2008
Just a built in role for you
Just a built in role for you
Built in built in built for you now

System Centre VMM
Virtualize right to the end
and it Saved me time
No heat problems to be found,
and the room is lacking sound
cuz it's virtualized
Costs of Hardware Power, Heat
You'll see them all so clearly beat
and you're laughing to the bank
When you get out Hyper-V

Hyper-V: to integrate
Hyper-V: i just can't wait
Hyper-V: it's part of 2k8
Hyper-v: they're hid away
Hyper-v: my drive Array
Hyper-v: it came and saved the day
Hyper-V: and I'm online
Hyper-V: and In no time
Hyper-v: Come get and use it now!

Hyper-v: Server 2008!
Hyper-V: Server 2008!
Hyper-V: Server 2008!
Hyper-V: Server 2008!

Hyper-V: to integrate
Hyper-V: i just can't wait
Hyper-V: it's part of 2k8
Hyper-v: they're hid away
Hyper-v: my drive Array
Hyper-v: it came and saved the day
Hyper-V: and I'm online
Hyper-V: and In no time
