Hacking Tutorial: Basic Information Gathering Using IP Trace Tools, Google and “The Google Phonebook” 2007-05-09 09:38:16 A big part of &ldquo
;hacking”, or more accurately, information security testing is gathering information. *In this tutorial we will cover some very basic methods on how to gather information on a specific target (ie one person). The information we will look for is the first and last name of the target as well as the city and state that they live in, then we’ll use that information to get the target’s phone number.
There are alot of ways and reason target an individual for information gathering, but we are only going to discuss the “how” not the “why”. Our primary tool in this tutorial is going to be Google
. Why Google? Because it has all the advanced search functions that pretty much none of the other search engines have. Our secondary tools are going to be IPtools.com and IP-Adress.com, which both are great sites to help one gather information based on an IP addresses. Last but not least, we are going to use the “Google Phone Book Read more:Hacking

Repost: New Bill to Give Bloggers Same Shield Law Protection as Journalists!! 2007-05-08 11:27:28 Saw this over at arstechnica and had to spread the good word, even if it’s still just a bill sittin’ on capital hill.
New bill to give bloggers same shield law protection as journalists
By Jacqui Cheng
The House of Representatives has amended the Free Flow of Information Act of 2007 to include provisions to protect bloggers from being required to divulge their sources under certain situations in the same way as journalists. Instead of requiring journalists to be tied to a news organization, the bill now defines “journalism” to focus more on the function of the job: “the gathering, preparing, collecting, photographing, recording, writing, editing, reporting, or publishing of news or information that concerns local, national, or international events or other matters of public interest for dissemination to the public.”

D00d SRSLY WTF: Coke Plus?!?! 2007-05-08 04:00:32 While waltzing through the local CVS I saw a strange site. And it looked a little something like this:
Its the design that catches the eye at first then its the little text at the bottom that says something to the effect of “contains vital vitamins and nutrients”. That’s when I was all, STFU!?!? Really?
So when I got back home I decided to give it a little research and this little image from the official Diet Coke page:
So, its got a teeny tiny amount of Niacin, B6, B12, Zinc and Magnesium, well whoopidy doo!!
I hope to the giant spaghetti monster, that peeps out there are not fooled by this obvious shame of a “healthy” cola. Maybe its just me, but this seems like an unholy union of vitamins and Coke meant to snag the healthy crowd and perhaps put one over on the ladies out there that order a Big Mac, Large Fries and a Diet Coke. Maybe they will start buying Coke Plus en masse to help curb their weight.

leetupload.com - A Huge Vault Of Hacking Tools, Videos and More 2007-05-07 11:40:09 Leetupload.com is kind of like VXChaos file server, which has gone MIA of late, only its a little more sleek, it doesn’t just focus on viri and its brand spanking new.
Here’s the word from the horses mouth:
This site is dedicated as a repository for “hacking” programs for Windows and Linux. Please note that hacking means nothing but tweaking or cleverly [wink] resolving a problem [nudge] . Use the programs as you wish, but this site or its provider are not responsible in terms of how you use these programs, (i.e. for educational purposes only).
The way this site works is as follows. I will update the database to the best of my capability, to a point. You, the community, may upload whatever you feel is relevant to the site in terms of security, docs/videos, etc. Then, I will eventually review each submitted item, and add it to the database.
Note: I added the “wink” and “nudge”.

Review: ChatAny.Com - Create a Personalized Chatroom, Then Pay Out?? 2007-05-07 10:58:33 I haven’t seen or heard of ChatAny.com before now, and me kinda likey-ish a bit … but not really.
Basically you can register and create a “next gen” (ie flash/interactive) chatroom all cluttered up just like ya want. You can even embed your chatroom right in your web site or blog or whatever.
The only, actually the BIG drawback is the whole paying for chatroom items with “gold pieces”. When you sign up, at least for now, you get 20 items and 50 gold pieces for free. But after you run out of items and gold then you have to pay $1 for 500 gold pieces to buy more crap for your room. That both sucks ass and bites it big time.
Other than that, being able to customize and embed a flash chatroom is a cool idea.
Yahoo instant messenger has a plug in that kinda works like this, but you can’t embed it in a website and there aren’t that many different customizations that you can use. You do get to see your avatar “talk” and yo Read more:Personalized
EXTREMELY GRAPHIC VIDEO: Teenage Girl Stoned To Death For Honor?!? 2007-05-07 09:28:53 This report from aina.org, translates an account of this story: Video Captures Stoning of Kurdish Teenage Girl, that first appeared on Jebar.info.
Excerpt:
Mosul, Iraq — According to the Kurdish website Jebar.info up to 1000 men from the Yezidi Kurdish community of Mosul killed a teenager who’s only crime was running away to marry a Muslim man whom she loved and converting to his religion.For four months the girl had been given shelter by a local Muslim Sheik. It was reported that in the last few days her family persuaded her to return home, convincing her that she had been forgiven by her parents and relatives for her mistake.
In a short mobile video clip which appears to have been taken by locals at seen of the murder, the girl is seen being ambushed on her way home by a group of up to 1000 men who were waiting for her to return; the men killed her in the most brutal way possible, by throwing large stones on her head. The following clips show that while she is alive and

Fidg’t: The Web 2.0 of Web 2.0 2007-05-10 21:12:02 What do you need for all those Social Networking sites that you use? One site to rule them all, and in the darkness bind them, DUh!!!! That is pretty much Fidg’t in a nutshell. There’s an added bonus though, you can put the friends you really like on your cell along with all their media and instant connectivity.
There’s really not much more to say about it than that. Now if only someone could do this for EVERY service we use on the web, like photobucket, megashare, Vod:Pod and assorted other sites that aren’t necessarily for “social networking” but it’d be nice to keep all that crap in one place!!
Sounds pretty cool to me. I’ll keep an eye on this one.
How To: Get Your YouTube Videos Approved by Google! 2007-05-10 13:04:38 There is a pretty interesting tutorial over on instructables on how to get your video approved on YouTube
, by using a Google
“bug” and using the tag “Approved by Google!”.
For those of you who may not know, a “bug” in media terms, is a small garphic that sits in the lower right or left hand corner of a video. You may have noticed that Comedy Central does this all the time for shows like “The Daily Show”. It can be a way of branding a product as well as quick little advertisements for other shows (aka animated bugs).
Moving on. HEre’s the link to the instructable: Get your YouTube videos approved by Google!
I’m unclear if this “Google Bug”, means that all your uploaded videos will be automatically approved no matter what the copyright is on a video, or if its just a bunch of bullshit.
I also don’t know if this counts as a hack … Your thoughts?
Lemme know if this is pure golden truth or fowl cont

HARRY POTTER LEAKED: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows PDF LEAKED!!! (Downloads) 2007-05-10 03:14:10 The last Harry Potter book appears to have been leaked*. Its a PDF and around 650 pages long.
Download it here: Harry_Potter_and_the_deathly_hallows.zip
I zipped the copy that was emailed to me, so its easier to download. The file is about 1.8mb so it may take a minute or two to download unless you use a download manager.
I’ll keep you updated on the particulars of this HUGE leak. I bet J.K Rowling is pissed. If this leak is in fact real.
NOTE: There are alot of “Larry Pooter” books flying around china. People actually write fake Harry Potter books and sell them as pirated copies, but they aren’t really pirated, they’re trademark and copywrite infringements.

Microsoft Fianlly Sees Open Source As A Threat, Suing For Patents 2007-05-15 02:57:36 Tech News on ZDNet has a pretty authoritative article on Microsoft
’s sudden decision that Open Source
software like any Linux distro and Open Office. Sounds like a bunch of bullshit to me, especially since Linux has been around forever and its just now getting uber popular. Its a money grab for royalties now that Linux and Open source is becoming popular. I say fuck em and I hope they lose and that whoever they are suing countersues for something like defamation of character or something that would bite Micro$oft in the ass.
Here’s what ZDNet says:
Microsoft says open source violates 235 patents
Microsoft claims that free and open-source software violates 235 of its patents, according to a magazine report published Sunday.

How To: Make Gmail Send Automated Responses To Anyone 2007-05-15 01:56:04 SOURCE: Ask Lifehacker: Set up a filtered response in Gmail
? - Lifehacker
File this one under, “I can’t believe I didn’t think of it first“. I could kick myself this is so simple.
Here’s the tutorial from lifehaker:
From here on out, I’ll refer to you main Gmail account as Gmail 1 and your second as Gmail 2 (could it get more complicated?).
Set up a filter in Gmail 1 that forwards messages to Gmail 2 that you want to send the auto-response to.
Head over to Gmail 2 and go to the Accounts settings tab. You need to add your Gmail 1 address to your Gmail 2 account so that Gmail 2 can send messages as Gmail 1. Then set Gmail 1 as your default account in Gmail 2. This way all messages you send from Gmail 2 will still look like they’re coming from Gmail 1.
Set up a Vacation responder in Gmail 2. Done!
Now when you receive a message from the sender you want to always auto-respond to, Gmail 1 will forward the message to Gmail 2, which will automa Read more:Automated

User data stolen but not unsecuredHi, we have some sad news, but don’t be alarmed…
Some people (and yes, we know who) found a security hole on our web site (in fact, actually in this blog).
They have got a copy of the user database. That is, your username and passwords. But, the passwords are stored encrypted, so it’s not a big deal, but it’s still very sad that it’s out there. All e-mails are for instance encrypted as well, they will most likely not be able to decrypt them either (they are _very_ encrypted).
We encourage all our users to change passwords as soon as possible - and if you have the same password on the bay as other places, you should update them as well.
Sorry for the mess, but we are all human and we miss something sometimes.

Graffiti or Mural: Evolution, Like Never Before, From Begining to *END* (HUGE IMAGE) 2007-05-14 01:21:48 The link I have here will take you to a HUGE image. I can’t even post a thumbnail of it here because it measures 10,264 by 478 pixels!!
It is actually the most poignant comment on human evolution that I have ever seen. If you look at this wall from left to right you will see a series of paintings that are all part of the same mural or urban art project. The pictures tell a story of evolution where humans aren’t the end product. It keeps going after humans show up, and that is where the story gets interesting. You have to see it for yourself to make your own deductions and then figure out what those deductions mean to you.

May 14th Is FBI Internet Wiretap Day!! 2007-05-13 14:26:26 Happy Friggin Monday … NOT
Hai 2 U Americans. Get your privacy apps and proxies ready, cause the FBI
will have all their gear set up by Monday May 14th:
May 14th is the official deadline for cable modem companies, DSL providers, broadband over powerline, satellite internet companies and some universities to finish wiring up their networks with FBI-friendly surveillance gear, to comply with the FCC’s expanded interpretation of the Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act.
Isn’t that special? Oh well, its not like “they” weren’t listening in the whole time anyway. Only now, its all legal thanks to a bill, aka CALEA, passed by Congress in ‘94 to help expedite the process of phone/cellular wiretapping, which was expanded to wiretapping the net in June of 2006. Unfortunately, we can’t just blame G W Bush for all this crap. Darn.

Latest AACS Revision Defeated A Week Before Release via ArsTechnica 2007-05-18 07:53:33 Just FYI via ArsTechnica:
Despite the best efforts of the Advanced Access Content System (AACS) Licensing Administration (AACS LA), content pirates remain one step ahead. A new volume key used by high-def films scheduled for release next week has already been cracked. The previous AACS volume key was invalidated by AACS LA after it was exposed and broadly disseminated earlier this month. The latest beta release of SlySoft’s AnyDVD HD program can apparently be used to rip HD DVD discs that use AACS version 3. Although these won’t hit store shelves until the May 22, pirates have already successfully tested SlySoft’s program with early release previews of the Matrix trilogy.

Tutorial: Wep Cracking At Its Best and Fastest Using Aircrack-PTW (Downloads) 2007-05-18 02:12:54 Source: The Register
A hanfull of hackers have the fastest attack on WEP that I’ve read of so far.
Here’s are the instructions via The Register:
Step 1: Find the enemy (this is the test-network you created in your lab, to verify our results). You can use kismet or airodump to find it.
Step 2: Generate some traffic. To generate some traffic, use aireplay-ng in ARP injection mode. Aireplay will listen to the network until it has found an encrypted ARP packet. By reinjecting this packet again and again, you will generate a lot of traffic, and you will know that most of the traffic was ARP-traffic. For an ARP-Packet, you know the first 16 Bytes of the clertext and so the first 16 bytes of the cipherstream.
Step 3: Write this traffic to disk using airodump-ng or so. This will create a tcpdump-like capture file with the traffic.
Step 4: Launch our algorithm. You need the aircrack-ptw (by the way, aircrack-ptw has been integrated in the 0.9-dev version of aircrack-ng, which is c Read more:Tutorial
