Mozilla Security Advisory - Windows versions of Mozilla products pass URIs using the shell: scheme to the OS for handling. The effects depend on the version of windows, but on Windows XP it is possible to launch executables in known locations or the default handlers for file extensions. It could be possible to combine this effect with a known buffer overrun in one of these programs to create a remote execution exploit, although at this time we have confirmed only denial-of-service type attacks. Versions affected: Mozilla (Suite), Mozilla Firefox, Mozilla Thunderbird.

Outlook 2000 and 2003 allow execution of remote web pages specified within the data property of OBJECT tags when there is no closing /OBJECT tag, while forwarding an HTML email message using Word 2000 or 2003 as the email editor. This behavior happens regardless of Security Zone settings.

Nmap is a utility for port scanning large networks, although it works fine for single hosts. Sometimes you need speed, other times you may need stealth. In some cases, bypassing firewalls may be required. Not to mention the fact that you may want to scan different protocols (UDP, TCP, ICMP, etc.). Nmap supports Vanilla TCP connect() scanning, TCP SYN (half open) scanning, TCP FIN, Xmas, or NULL (stealth) scanning, TCP ftp proxy (bounce attack) scanning, SYN/FIN scanning using IP fragments (bypasses some packet filters), TCP ACK and Window scanning, UDP raw ICMP port unreachable scanning, ICMP scanning (ping-sweep), TCP Ping scanning, Direct (non portmapper) RPC scanning, Remote OS Identification by TCP/IP Fingerprinting, and Reverse-ident scanning. Nmap also supports a number of performance and reliability features such as dynamic delay time calculations, packet timeout and retransmission, parallel port scanning, detection of down hosts via parallel pings. Full changelog available here.
