Lynn Cisco presentation chased by ISS
According to TaoSecurity Blog, ISS is trying to chase down copies of Lynn's presentation on the Internet and sending those hosting them "Cease and Desist" letters.
Waste of time guys - cat's already out of the bag. Even BEFORE he gave the presentation, do you think no one at the Black Hat convention would have noticed the pages literally ripped out of their conference proceedings? Someone would have gotten their hands on a copy and distributed it.
Besides, what's the strategy for shutting down foreign sites hosting the presentation? I bet it's for sale on eBay too!
It's strongly rumored that groups of "pissed off hackers" are collaborating on exploit code and planning on releasing it into the wild. I don't know for sure of this is true, but it is highly likely. Of course I denounce such activities, although I can understand the outrage.
Let's hope people patch their Cisco routers - Cisco released a patch MONTHS ago.
