Adobe preps sandboxing tech to fight exploits

crap!?

C and C++ are crap and so many simple programs have more vulnerabilities than lines of code. Although often bloated (because it's so easy to integrate with external modules) common java apps are no nearly as buggy as the general C app.

What about the bunch of PHP/Perl/python/the likes? Well they have much more limited usage and in my experience don't show any better security.

Google preps tablet-friendly Chrome that knows 'what's up'

Chrome is being installed on Google's Tablet

The reason for Google wanting Chrome to know orientation, is because Chrome is going to be installed on tablets... including Google's tablet, which will actually be Android based. Chrome might be installed on other tablets, including Win7, WebOS, and hopefully...the iPad.

poc

There is a POC here http://www.hack0wn.com/view.php?xroot=672.0&cat=exploits

But I have no idea what's is supposed to prove. All I can say is that nothing happen when I load this page or download the php file. Is that supposed to crash and display a message ? It doesn't, not for me anyway.
