Good work thanks for sharing... i'll try to see if UBUNTU uses mDNSResponder in any ways and post it here... Nice article TRDQ.. Good work
thanks for sharing…

i’ll try to see if UBUNTU uses mDNSResponder in any ways and post it here…

If you could read this little article I wrote on the Rape.osx and the iPhone exploits and tell me what you think or if you know anything that I haven't found. I am running into walls all over the place trying to find some solid information on the mDNSresponder variant, but I am sure that it all comes back to Safari and how the system as a whole handles connections to WiFi. But I got nothin.

I found that there are some linux apps that use mDNSResponder. We all know that Mac OS X is really a solid unix core, there are probably alot of open source projects, like rendevous (it uses mDNSresponder) that find their way to linux repos. I was just wondering if anyone had found some similar vulnerable code in the basic Ubuntu or Kubuntu distros?

If i have misunderstood your question, Can you please rephrase your question? Hey TRDQ

Correct me if I am wrong, I believe mDNSResponder exploit is related to apple and not UBUNTU (Linux).

If i have misunderstood your question, Can you please rephrase your question?

I'm still working on putting all the pentesting tools from BackTrack2 on a Kubuntu distro, has to be Kubuntu cause BT is all KDE. The only tricky part is making Slax based apps work (correctly) in kubuntu linux 7.04 (feisty fawn). Oh that and I need a buttload of time. One question, Will this help with the alleged mDNSresponder exploits? Keep up the good work!!
