Greetings,
Firstly it would be remiss of me not to mention that AusCERT2012 conference registration is now open. Especially since I have just registered myself. Once you have decided that you really cannot miss this year, we have even more good news for you: buy 2 get 1 free registration! Therefore, as an AusCERT member, you can send 3 people for only $2350 if you register before the 16th of August.
Per person, that works out to $2166 less than a standard non-member rate.
As always VMware has decided to grace us with Friday afternoon patches, this time however we were ready for them. In fact, we are publishing the bulletins as I type, I can almost hear it zipping off into the clutches of various email devices and servers around me, either that or the constant beeping of a reversing truck.
Joomla! was also updated this week correcting vulnerabilities for the 1.5 branch, some of which look to have been corrected in the newer versions the week before.
Of course Adobe Flash Player (and AIR) [4] were updated fixing a couple of vulnerabilities allowing code execution. Of course where you have a Flash player update you know that comes near enough to a related Google Chrome update [5] to patch, among others, the version of Flash Player that comes with Google Chrome.
Lastly phpMyAdmin and MySQL had some security patches this week. Oracle were very verbose with the security information for MySQL, the details it contained were: "Security Fix: Bug #13510739 and Bug #63775 were fixed".
Unfortunately Oracle is showing "Bug #13510739 - MySQL Bugs: No such bug" for that bug. At least it is patched, even if you don't know exactly what was patched.
Have a good weekend,
Jonathan and Richard
