Some of you might have noticed that Bugtraq has not been operating now for some time. Scott Chasin, the regular moderator of Bugtraq is at the moment not able to fill that role. Until Scott comes back from the net-dead I will be taking over his role. Much nothing else changes. The charter is the same and we play by the same rules. The list address is BUGTRAQ@NETSPACE.ORG and the subscription address is LISTSERV@NETSPACE.ORG. Just in case you forgotten what this is all about here is the WELCOME message from the list: B U G T R A Q Last Updated: 05/14/96 What is this list about? This list is for *detailed* discussion of UNIX security holes: what they are, how to exploit, and what to do to fix them. This list is not intended to be about cracking systems or exploiting their vunerabilities. It is about defining, recognizing, and preventing use of security holes and risks. Please refrain from posting one-line messages or messages that do not contain any substance that can relate to this list`s charter. I will allow certain informational posts regarding updates to security tools, documents, etc. But I will not tolerate any unnecessary or nonessential "noise" on this list. Please follow the below guidelines on what kind of information should be posted to the Bugtraq list: o Information on Unix related security holes/backdoors (past and present) o Exploit programs, scripts or detailed processes about the above o Patches, workarounds, fixes o Announcements, advisories or warnings o Ideas, future plans or current works dealing with Unix security o Information material regarding vendor contacts and procedures o Individual experiences in dealing with above vendors or security organizations o Incident advisories or informational reporting Any non-essential replies should not be directed to the list but to the originator of the message. Please do not "CC" the bugtraq reflector address if the response does not meet the above criteria. Remember: YOYOW. You own your own words. This means that you are responsible for the words that you post on this list and that reproduction of those words without your permission in any medium outside the distribution of this list may be challenged by you, the author. Scott Chasin, the original moderator, is taking an extended vacation. Aleph One will be filling his role until he returns.
