<p>&#8220;Turbodiff 1.01 beta release 1&#8243; works with IDA starting from v5.0.</p>
<p><strong>Instructions</strong></p>
<p>For the binaries:<br />
Download the plugin and store it at the directory &#8220;..\IDA\plugins&#8221;.</p>
<p>If you want to compile it on your own: We have compiled it and tested it using Borland C. For the free version of IDA Pro (4.9) you&#8217;ll need to first:</p>
<ol>
<li>Generate the ida_free.lib library. To do this execute: &#8220;implib -c ida_free.lib ida_free.def&#8221;</li>
<li>Next, you must have the linker use this library.</li>
<li>Compile.</li>
</ol>
<p>Comparing two files:</p>
<ol>
<li>Open the first file to be compared with IDA and run /Option 1 (take info from this idb)/ from the plugin. Close.</li>
<li>Open the second file to be compared with IDA and run /Option 1 (take info from this idb)/ from the plugin.<br />
Use /Option 2 (compare with&#8230;)/ from the plugin, and when prompted to select a file, select the first file. </li>
<li>Chose if you want a log file to be genreated and run. Once finished a functions table will popup (watch Figure 1) describing results. The results are then saved for later usage.</li>
</ol>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>RATS &#8211; Rough Auditing Tool for Security &#8211; is an open source tool developed and maintained by Secure Software security engineers. Secure Software was acquired by Fortify Software, Inc. RATS is a tool for scanning C, C++, Perl, PHP and Python source code and flagging common security related programming errors such as buffer overflows and TOCTOU (Time Of Check, Time Of Use) race conditions.</p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<p>RATS scanning tool provides a security analyst with a list of potential trouble spots on which to focus, along with describing the problem, and potentially suggest remedies. It also provides a relative assessment of the potential severity of each problem, to better help an auditor prioritize. This tool also performs some basic analysis to try to rule out conditions that are obviously not problems.</p>
<p>As its name implies, the tool performs only a rough analysis of source code. It will not find every error and will also find things that are not errors. Manual inspection of your code is still necessary, but greatly aided with this tool.</p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<p><strong>Requirements</strong></p>
<p>RATS requires expat to be installed in order to build and run. Expat is often installed in /usr/local/lib and /usr/local/include. On some systems, you will need to specify &#8211;with-expat-lib and &#8211;with-expat-include options to configure so that it can find your installation of the library and header. Expat can be found <a href="http://expat.sourceforge.net/">here</a>.</p>
<p>You can download RATS here:</p>
<p>Source Code:  <a href="http://www.fortify.com/servlet/downloads/public/rats-2.3.tar.gz">rats-2.3.tar.gz</a><br />
Windows Binary: <a href="http://www.fortify.com/servlet/downloads/public/rats-2.3-win32.zip">rats-2.3-win32.zip</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>4f is a file format <a href="http://www.darknet.org.uk/tag/fuzzing-framework/">fuzzing framework</a>. 4f uses modules which are specifications of the targeted binary or text file format that tell it how to fuzz the target application. If 4f detects a crash, it will log crucial information important for allowing the 4f user to reproduce the problem and also debugging information important to deciding the severity of the bug and its exploitability.</p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<p>4f&#8217;s purpose is to find vulnerabilities in code that parses file formats including configuration files.</p>
<p>4f uses specialized modules for fuzzing code that interprets file formats. Several modules are included and more can be written to follow other file formats.</p>
<p>A module system is in place for fuzzing any file format you like as long as you know its specification</p>
<p>Custom debugger gathers crucial debugging information on crash, logs it, then continues fuzzing.</p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<p><strong>Usage</strong></p>
<pre><code>USAGE DETAILS

USAGE:   ./4f <-T /usr/bin/target> <-M #> [-N fuzz.conf]
         [-A ARGS] [-R /output] [-L log.txt] [-C] [-D]

INFO:    [-O Fuzzing Oracle] [-S Modules Available]</code></pre>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>fm-fsf is a new fuzzer/data scraper that works under OSX, Linux (with Mono) and Windows (.NET Framework). <a href="http://www.darknet.org.uk/tag/fuzzing-tool/">Fuzzing tools</a> are always useful if you are looking at discovering some new flaws in a software or web service.</p>
<p><strong>Quick Info</strong></p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<p>FSF is a plug-in based freakin&#8217; simple fuzzer for fuzzing web applications and scraping data. </p>
<p>It supports some basic stuff and is missing some features however it has got some advanced RegEx capturing features for scraping data out of web applications.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s still in early stage of development so don&#8217;t expect too much.</p>
<p><strong>Why bring yet another fuzzer into this cruel world?</strong></p>
<p>The author was trying to fuzz something and after spending about 2-3 hours about 3-4 different terribly designed fuzzers he thought knocking up his own would be better.</p>
<p><strong>Don&#8217;t use if you&#8230;.</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Want a fuzzer where you can control the raw HTTP request</li>
<li>Need some crazy features such as fuzzing multiple locations at a time </li>
</ul>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<p><strong>Use if you need a fuzzer&#8230;</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>That allows to take advantage of RegEx with the full power for scraping data (this is quite useful while exploiting SQL Injections, gathering data, looking for some hidden resource or trying to enumerate all valid &#8220;user id&#8221;s)</li>
<li>Simple to run and easy to use</li>
<li>Which makes it easy to write your own fuzzing modules</li>
<li>With simple and compact .NET code </li>
</ul>
<p>You can download fm-fsf here:</p>
<p><a href="http://fm-fsf.googlecode.com/files/FSF-7.1.0.0.tar.gz">FSF-7.1.0.0.tar.gz</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Charles is an HTTP proxy / HTTP monitor / Reverse Proxy that enables a developer to view all of the HTTP traffic between their machine and the Internet. This includes requests, responses and the HTTP headers (which contain the cookies and caching information).</p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<p>Charles can act as a man-in-the-middle for HTTP/SSL communication, enabling you to debug the content of your HTTPS sessions.</p>
<p>Charles simulates modem speeds by effectively throttling your bandwidth and introducing latency, so that you can experience an entire website as a modem user might (bandwidth simulator).</p>
<p>Charles is especially useful for Adobe Flash developers as you can view the contents of LoadVariables, LoadMovie and XML loads. Charles also has native support for Flash Remoting (AMF0 and AMF3).</p>
<p>Charles is also useful for XML development in web browsers, such as AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) and XMLHTTP, as it enables you to see the actual XML that is flowing between the client and the server. Charles natively supports JSON, JSON-RPC and SOAP; displaying each in a simplified tree format for easy viewing and debugging. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Finally Microsoft is doing something proactive and perhaps even slightly ahead of the game, a real game-change for the security community.</p>
<p>They have released a new AND open-source tool to make debugging easier, it gives developers a lot of help during the release cycle to build more secure software. Mostly because it takes the legwork and labour intensive tasks and semi-automates them leaving the developer to concentrate on more important stuff.</p>
<p>At least something from Microsoft we can applaud!</p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<blockquote><p>Microsoft on Friday released an open-source program designed to streamline the labor-intensive process of identifying security vulnerabilities in software while it&#8217;s still under development.</p>
<p>As its name suggests, !exploitable Crash Analyzer (pronounced &#8220;bang exploitable crash analyzer&#8221;) combs through bugs that cause a program to seize up, and assesses the likelihood of them being exploited by attackers. Dan Kaminsky, a well-known security expert who also provides consulting services to Microsoft, hailed the release a &#8220;game changer&#8221; because it provides a reliable way for developers to sort through thousands of bugs to identify the several dozen that pose the greatest risk.</p>
<p>&#8220;Microsoft has taken years of difficulties with security vulnerabilities and really condensed that experience down to a repeatable tool that takes a look at a crash and says &#8216;You better take a look at this,&#8217;&#8221; Kaminsky told The Reg. &#8220;What makes !exploitable so fascinating is that it takes at least the first level of this knowledge and packages it up into something that can be in the workflow.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>It&#8217;s a great idea, as surely there are a lot of conditions that cause an application to hang &#8211; but the majority of them will pose no security risk other than a denial of service locally (which is quite pointless). The tool will point out those bugs that are exploitable and therefore can be considered critical issues.</p>
<p>I hope developers harness this app and really start to produce more secure code.</p>
<p><!--adsense#New468--></p>
<blockquote><p>Over the past five years, Microsoft has made a fair amount of progress hardening its operating systems and applications against the most-common security threats. Protections such as Address Space Layout Randomization and cross-site scripting defenses have been added to later versions of Windows and Internet Explorer, respectively. And the company has generally managed to exorcise its programs of dangerous vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by attackers.</p>
<p>Now, Microsoft wants to help secure third-party applications that run on top of Windows. Last year, the company released a threat-modeling tool and other resources designed to help software developers kick-start secure development lifecycle programs in their organizations. The idea was to package the security experience Microsoft has attained so it can serve as a sort of template for other companies.</p>
<p>The release of !exploitable, which was announced at the CanSecWest security conference in Vancouver, British Columbia, is a continuation of that effort. It&#8217;s a Windows debugger extension that&#8217;s used during fuzz testing, when testers test the stability and security of an application by throwing unexpected data at it.</p></blockquote>
<p>The tool creates hashes to ensure each crash is unique then rates them according to how exploitable it is &#8211; Exploitable, Probably Exploitable, Probably Not Exploitable or Unknown.</p>
<p>There is currently an x86 and an x64 version availalble.</p>
<p>As wisely said, it&#8217;s about the signal to noise ratio and this tool can really help you weed out the noise and get to the important issues.</p>
