Just goes to show that you should "NEVER" give out your password. Especially if you are the sort of person who uses the same password everywhere.

Back at it
Well after a year and a half hiatus I have been well enough to get out bouldering. The treatments have been going good and the immune-inhibitors have worked wonders for the vascullitic neuropathy. I figured that since I can now feel my feet and hands again I might as well try to get back into bouldering. The vasculitis really did a number to my left arm (especially the triceps and wrist extensors/flexors) and the muscles in my left leg so I was not expecting too much. We went to Mt. Woodson and I started out and ended at boulder 1 and 2. I remember walking almost all of these problems in my prime and now they were at my limit. Still I had a great time and was able to climb quite a few. Hopefully next time I'll make it further up the hill and up a few more problems.
After the sit start.
Right before the crux.
My future little climbers.
This problem was a lot harder than I remember it being.
Got to love the undercling.

Webcams, printers, gizmos - the untold net threats • The Register
Your network is not as secure as you think. Having a firewall is not enough protection. Printers, NAS and routers can all be vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting, Cross Site Request Forgery, and Cross Channel Scripting attacks. -> theregister.co.uk
Change all the default password on your internet enabled devices and make sure your firmware is up to date.

Linux 2.6.30+/SELinux/RHEL5 test kernel 0day, exploiting the unexploitable
A heads up for those of you that have RH5/CentOS5 boxes out there. lists.grok.org.uk
Luckily the exploit is local only. The most interesting thing is that having selinux enabled actually makes the server easier to exploit :)

Schneier on Security: Homomorphic Encryption Breakthrough
Last month, IBM made some pretty brash claims about homomorphic encryption and the future of security. I hate to be the one to throw cold water on the whole thing -- as cool as the new discovery is -- but it's important to separate the theoretical from the practical. schneier.com
Interesting explanation about the homomorphic encryption "breakthrough" IBM made last month.
