Microsoft Security Advisory (2416728): Vulnerability in ASP.NET Could Allow Information Disclosure -

Revision Note: V1.1 (September 20, 2010): Revised Executive Summary to communicate that Microsoft is aware of limited, active attacks. Also added additional entries to the Frequently Asked Questions section and additional clarification to the workaround. Advisory Summary:Microsoft is investigating a new public report of a vulnerability in ASP.NET. An attacker who exploited this vulnerability could view data, such as the View State, which was encrypted by the target server, or read data from files on the target server, such as web.config. This would allow the attacker to tamper with the contents of the data. By sending back the altered contents to an affected server, the attacker could observe the error codes returned by the server. Microsoft is aware of limited, active attacks at this time.

NAME
Apache::AuthCookie::FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions about Apache::AuthCookie. VERSION
version 3.18 DESCRIPTION
This document serves to answer the most frequently asked questions about Apache::AuthCookie. How can I protect an entire site (/) with Apache::AuthCookie? You have to give an Apache "require" directive that applies to all requests for except for your login handler. The easiest way to do this is to override the auth handlers for your login script. For example, if your login handler is "/LOGIN", then you need to use something like the following: <Location /> AuthType My::AuthCookieHandler AuthName Whatever PerlAuthenHandler My::AuthCookieHandler->authenticate PerlAuthzHandler My::AuthCookieHandler->authorize require valid-user </Location> <Location /LOGIN> PerlAuthenHandler Apache2::Const::OK PerlAuthzHandler Apache2::Const::OK </Location> ...
