2. Security Patches by Modem? Forget it!
By Scott Granneman

Let's face it - there is no way for dial-up users on any major operating
system to keep their computers up-to-date and patched. OK, maybe "no way"
is an exaggeration. How about, "a difficult, burdensome, time-consuming,
very prone to failure way?"

3. When Gaming is a Gamble
By Mark Rasch

A new Justice Department policy threatens to jail security professionals
who help lock down online gambling sites anywhere in the world.

vulnerability. This issue is due to a design error that allows the
application to insecurely write to a temporary file that is created with a
predictable file name.

An attacker may exploit this issue to corrupt arbitrary files. This
corruption may potentially result in the elevation of privileges, or in a
system wide denial of service.

It should be noted that the 'smbprint-new.sh' is a sample script located
in the 'examples' directory. This script is not intended for commercial
use. The 'smbprint' script included in the 'packaging' directory is not
vulnerable to this issue. Individual package distributions may vary.
