Security Gap osCommerce

Creating an online store is now easily done by the developers. Moreover, existing osCommerce which became one of the quickest and easiest option to create an online store with some setting that is not too difficult. But even so, there lurked the danger of this osCommerce engine. Well, if you have a website using osCommerce please review the following gap, at least not until your site burglarized by people who are not interested in the future.

Scareware distributors recently managed to find security holes found on the websites with osCommerce engine, this is done by implementing BHSEO campaign. The level of attacks are shown to the public and shows the script that became the cause of hackers easily broken server.

This security hole was actually already opened since August 31, 2009 is in fact already started to be published on Milw0rm by a user with the nickname Flyh4t. The security adviser, which is published by the firm Secunia explained about this vulnerability as an error in the authentication mechanism that can be exploited to bypass authentication and gain access to the admin folder as well as administration pages.

According to a report from Unmask parasites, after these exploits, some existing PHP scripts on the server following the targeted attacks, which a few examples of these files is mm.php, sh1.php, betty.php and lname.php.

For the script file itself betty.php aims to generate a URL with the format: http://namadomain.com/betty.php?q=keywords which would then be indexed by search engines and generate search results for terms as keywords earlier. HTML script is finally stored in the cache directory.

While the script can turn pages lname.php visitors to malicious sites which are pages that offer anti-virus hoax. Scareware own party through this campaign fairly new and have the ability to detect low-level AV on VirusTotal.

For mm.php script used to upload files to the server directly. While the script is used as sh1.php PHP web shell. If you find some files of this type in the web server might have dieksploit server. Unmask parasites also stressed that "Google Webmaster Tools can help you to detect the attack. Report 'search queries' that had to be able to express other security problems, so at least by using this GWT once a week would be very helpful at all. "

Until this news was published, handling and repair of the osCommerce project itself had not yet appeared, and this seems to occur even in version osCommerce 2.2 RC2a. However this attack can be prevented by limiting access to the directory through the settings in admin. Htaccess. Or if you want you can rename this directory and delete the file-manager.php to enhance your osCommerce site security.

Android-x86

If you hear the name of Android, it's not wrong if you immediately remember that it is a mobile operating system that it belongs to Google's recent speech was widely became public and began many ogled by the manufacturers of telecommunications equipment.

This time it comes with a different view, Android is now present as the x86 platform, which means that allow us to run this operating system in Asus Eee PC netbook, and also can run on a platform 32-bit x86.

A group of developers called the 'Android-x86'. Indeed the news itself has begun terendus by them since several years ago after creating several improvements which allow Android to run on x86 platform.

The purpose of this project itself is to provide a complete solution for Android-based Eee PC the first time and then provides solutions for common x86 platforms as well.

So far, this team has successfully tested this operating system which still use the Android 1.6 (Donut) on some models like the Eee PC 701, 701SD, 900, 900A, 901, 904HD, 1000, 1000HE, 1000HD, 1005HAG, S101, T91 ( VESA mode) and Eee Top 1602C.

This operating system reportedly also working on the Lenovo ThinkPad x61 Tablet. All the machines mentioned above size resolutions seem to run 480 or 800 × 1024 × 600 with i915 driver. Apparently this will also work on Linux Kernel 2.6.29 with KMS is enabled.

The next plan is to support an external monitor, improve bluetooth support, including power management, support multi-touch touchpad, 3G support and GPS

In fact, Microsoft has released the ASP.NET MVC on the server RC 2 download it since a few weeks ago. With this new framework is expected the developers can use it best to develop the Cloud-based applications. With this new framework will also make it easier for developers to maintain systems and applications created the framework itself is really well tested for use in the build web-based applications.

"MVC is a framwork with the concept of model-view-controller which can separate between the application logic and display design that will easily tested in ASP.NET environment. MVC can also be used for various applications based webnamun usually more often associated with REST applications, "says Nicholas Allen, one of the applications manager at Microsoft who worked on Windows Communication Foundation, Windows Workflow Foundation, Silverlight and the various projects. NET Framework others.

ASP.NET MVC 2 RC itself has actually released a few weeks ago after the beta version of this framework out. Microsoft's own focus is now more placed primarily on the completion and repair bugs reported by users start by improving the validation and error handling support on the template has been created.

"You can use the ASP.NET MVC 2 is side by side on a machine with ASP.NET MVC 1 but you will not be able to menjalannya side by side with the beta version has been released by the Visual Studio 2010. This is because the Visual Studio has its own version to ASP.NET MVC 2. You will be able to run together when the Visual Studio sekalugs beta has been updated. "Tambaha Allen.

Parties Microsoftbaru recently announced the postponement of the release of Visual Studio 2010 and. NET Framework 4 a few weeks to develop its RC version.

SQL Server Migration Assistants for MySQL

Working with databases is sometimes confusing, especially if we are forced to take action when the system we used was to use other databases, like it or not we do is change it. But now if you are forced to have to convert MySQL databases into SQL Server, seems not to be a difficult thing to do. Microsoft has recently been providing a free application for MySQL database migration to SQL Server.

Application called SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) for MySQL v1.0 are not only able to change the MySQL database to SQL Server 2005 database, but can even turn it into SQL Server 2008 and SQL Azure.

Microsoft parties underline that this application can automate aspects of the migration process from MySQL to SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2008 and SQL Azure.

"SQL Server Migration Assistant for MySQL is a recent conversion applications which are also capable of processing Oracle, Sybase, Access and analyzer for PowerBuilder. The tool is designed to handle the manual process in which a complex when we are required to perform the migration. In using the SQL Server Migration Assistants, customers and business partners to reduce manual way, so that the benefits are more efficient time, cost and risk when performed migration. According to a survey we did recently, people who download the SSMA 94% would recommend it to others, "said Erika Sommer, a member of the marketing team Microsoft SQL Server.

Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant is currently released by Microsoft as a free application, which users will not be charged at all. This application will reportedly continue to be freely distributed even after the general availability in mid-2010.

"Since the application of SQL Server Migration Assistants for Oracle is available in June 2005, Microsoft has seen more than 250,000 have downloaded penggunduh this application. Motorola, Simon & Schuster, Sony Ericsson and Artesia are some of the customers who use the SQL Server Migration Assistant to do the conversion to Microsoft SQL Server, "said Sommer added.

Captcha Technique

Do you still lay with Captcha? If you often surf in cyberspace and registration on a website, usually there will be security code which contains characters which must alphanumerik you fill in accordance with the drawings, if one then you have to repeat the charge. If it is correct then the registration stage would be successful. Security code that is named with the Captcha.

Scientists at Tel Aviv University is currently working on a new captcha technology that they think will be more difficult for hackers ditelusupi by robots. The new system relies on the ability of people to recognize the object when the object is moving, although this new system may be much more difficult to see than the usual picture.

"People have very specific skills that a bot can not yet mastered the computer," said Professor Danny Cohen-Or. "We can see what is called 'the emergence of image', when an object on the computer screen becomes recognizable when moving and identify these images in seconds.

"Although one can not see the images as objects in the background still punctate, moving objects will allow us to recognize and process it."

New synthesis techniques to produce 3D images such as those running or flying aircraft. This will allow developers to produce an infinite number of moving objects which would be almost impossible to be solved by computer algorithms.

The scientists warn that this experiment would take a little time before the results of research can be applied in the real world. But they are currently defining the parameters that identify the level of difficulty of perception of pictures that can be used in future web security technology.

"We do not claim that our research has been thoroughly resolved," said Professor Cohen-Or. "But we are taking steps in that direction, something that could generate captcha is far better, to highlight the major differences between human and robot.

Hopefully this research will result in a better way to be able to identify a user whether a human or a robot, without having to trouble us through this process later.

Microsoft Presents Free SEO Toolkit To Optimize Google, Bing & Yahoo

You are looking for free tools to perform the optimization according to all the search engine giants like Google, Yahoo and Bing? This time Microsoft comes to free SEO Toolkit application which is designed specifically for webmasters and web admin to adapt directly with Bing, Google and Yahoo. This course will help the website being developed to be performed in the search engine can easily be accessed by Internet users world.

A few days ago, Microsoft also released the latest update to Windows Server Technical Evangelism. This time they put forward the application IIS SEO Toolkit.

"Windows Server 2008 R2 Web Server (IIS 7.5) which was built with a fully modular architecture has a sophisticated API. This allows developers to easily add, delete and even replace IIS components are already built-in that had been adapted to the various sites websites. Currently more easily combine the code into the core IIS and using ways not previously possible, "Pennington said.

The promise from Microsoft is that the SEO Toolkit is designed to help webmasters to improve the work flow of traffic and virtual worlds extra income, influence and update the search engines and improve the customer experience. One-one solution to the lack of search engine optimization is the fact that this tool is only designed to work with web sites that use Windows Server and IIS servers.

Assembling File Server with the Red Devils

If you do not want to be bothered and loose enough budget, then the NAS (Network Attached Storage) is one solution. However, if you want to use the old computer and unused hard disk, FreeNAS which is a variant of the FreeBSD operating system can dayagunakan. FreeNAS file you can download at www.freenas.org address in the form of an ISO file size of 46.6 Mega Bytes.

Uniquely, we FreeNAS can run as a Live-CD, aka do not need to be installed into the hard drive. If the PC motherboard to be used to support booting from a USB Flashdisk, FreeNAS is also ready to be installed in this popular media. If you are a photography and have pehobi store media type CF Card. This configuration steps:

Burn the ISO file to a CD

By default FreeNAS is distributed in the form of an ISO file, to be burned into a CD. Do not forget, we do not burn the FreeNAS ISO file as data, but as the ISO.

Priorities change Booting PC

The following steps we need to do because our computers will not boot from the hard disk, but from the CD contains the files that previously freeNAS we prepared. Shortly after the turn on the PC, press, press the Delete key to enter the BIOS settings (Basic Input-Output System). This button may vary, depending on your PC motherboard manufacturer. We recommend that you look at the PC motherboard's manual. Usually, booting priority configuration in the Settings or Anvanced the Boot tab. Go to the section, then change the priority of booting from the CD-ROM was first on. After that, save this configuration by going to the Exit and select Exit and Save Settings. Immediately insert the CD into the FreeNAS includes CD-ROM, the PC will soon be booting from the CD-ROM.

Initial Configuration

Initial configuration contains the steps of defining a local network that will use FreeNAS services.

1. The first step, we will activate the network card (ethernet) or LAN card. Type the number 1, then press Enter.

2. By default, FreeNAS will apply the existing network card in the computer with the label em. Choose one with which you want to FreeNAS network communications media. Navigate to the option OK, then press Enter. Card that has an active network will have a label Up.

3. Furthermore, you are given a bid to use a DHCP server (Dynamic Host Configuration Server) that facilitate the management of IP numbers and addresses in a local network FreeNAS. If you're already using DNS server for IP address numbers, point it to the option No. If no DNS server in the network, select Yes, and press Enter.

4. This option will not appear if you previously chose to use a DHCP server. IP addresses are used by FreeNAS server computers and computers FreeNAS server The access will be determined by the DHCP server. Fill in the IP number that will be used by FreeNAS server computer. Choose the number of unused IP on the network. Navigate to the OK option, and press Enter.

5. Fill in the subnet mask for the IP number we have just given. In this discussion, we use a class A IP number, the subnet mask in binary is 24 bits for three subnet octets in the front covered with a binary 1 (255.255.255.0). If you use a class B IP number, for example 192.168.XX, then its subnet mask in binary is 16 bit for two octet subnet on the front covered with a binary 1 (255.255.0.0). Navigate to the OK option, and press Enter.

6. If the local network connected to the outside (internet) through the gateway computer, fill in the IP number of the gateway computer. Navigate to the OK option, and press Enter.

7. If the local network using DNS server to manage IP addressing number, fill in its IP number. This option does not appear if you previously chose to use a DHCP server. Navigate to the OK option, and press Enter.

8. Translation bids will perform IP numbers used by FreeNAS server to form IP version 6. Just navigate to the OK option, and press Enter.

9. A moment later, the configuration of the IP number has been completed. If you choose to use a DHCP server, IP numbers used by the server will also be displayed freeNAS. Remember the IP numbers, because we will use to access the advanced configuration interface via a web browser. Press Enter to reboot FreeNAS.

10. If it appears FreeNAS screen, just press Enter.

11. Initial configuration has been completed.

Box 1: About RAID

RAID systems (Redundant Array of inexpensive Disks) is a mechanism for arranging the several disks to improve performance, better data access speed, the speed of data writing and reading speed data.

There are two main arranging the system in RAID, which is stripping and mirroring. The first system of storing pieces of data packets between a series of alternately hard disk (array) and the other one. While mirroring the system stores the same data on each hard drive series. Effectively stripping system to increase the speed of data access and write data, while mirroring the system ideal for data backup.

Actually there is one more system of arranging the disks in the RAID, which is JBOD (Just a Bunch Of Disks). Circuits simpannya combined disk capacity and is considered as one disk. This system is suitable for the purposes of data storage capacity of extra space.

Advanced Configuration

Advanced configuration steps are used to organize a series of RAID disk and set the rules for-expiry date. This advanced configuration can be done on any computer in the network FreeNAS.

1. Open a web browser, then fill IP numbers used by FreeNAS server computer and press Enter. Immediately perform advanced configuration interface FreeNAS.

2. The first step, we define the disk to be arranged in RAID. Click the Management sub-menu under Disks menu. On the Management tab, press the plus sign icon (plus).

3. Press the button on the Disks dropdown, then navigate to the first hard drive that is identified by a label ad0. Next, press the Add button.

4. On the Management tab, press again the plus sign icon (plus). Press the button on the Disks dropdown, then navigate to a second hard drive that is identified by a label ad2. Next, press the Add button.

5. After all the hard drives to be arranged in RAID defined, apply the configuration by pressing the Apply Changes button.

6. Now, we will format the hard disk-drive that we will cluster in RAID. Click the Format sub-menu under Disks menu. On the disk, press the dropdown button and navigate to the first hard disk (ad0). In the File System, press the dropdown button and select Software RAID. Click the Format button.

7. Back to the Disk, press the dropdown button and navigate to a second hard drive (ad2). In the File System, press the dropdown button and select Software RAID. Click the Format button.

8. After the disk-drive formatted to be strung together, we are now in a RAID series. Way, click the sub menu under the Software RAID Disks menu. Specify the desired type of RAID. In the first practice, we try to select raid1 with raid1 click the tab. Click the plus sign icon (plus).

9. Give any name in the RAID Name field. Put a check (tick) on the Members of This Volume to select the disk to be arranged in RAID. Similarly, to enable the option Create and Initialize RAID. If you are finished, click the Add button.

10. Do not forget to apply the RAID configuration by pressing the Apply Changes button.

11. Now, time to format the RAID set. Click the Format sub-menu under Disks menu. In the Disks, point to the RAID set we just created. In the File System, select UFS (GPT and Soft Updates). Give any entries in the Volume label and enable (check mark) on the option Do not Erase the MBR. Then, press the Disc Format.

12. Do not forget to apply the configuration by pressing the Apply Changes button.

13. We need to define a RAID mount point that can be accessed by members of the network (clients). For that, click the sub menu under the mount points Disks menu. To add the mount point, click the plus sign (plus).

14. In the Type section, navigate to Disk option. On the disk, navigate to the RAID set we just created. On the Partition, press the dropdown button and select EFI GPT. Click the dropdown button on the File System, select UFS. Give any name in the Name and Description field. If you are finished, click the Add button.

15. Do not forget to apply the configuration of the RAID mount point that we have already set with the click Apply Changes button.

16. The final step, we manage services Samba (CIFS / SMB) which is a file-sharing services between the family computer UNIX (including FreeBSD and Linux) with Windows computers. Press the sub menu CIFS / SMB under the Services menu. Open the Settings tab. In the Authentication section, if you want everyone to be able to access the FreeNAS server without a password, select Anonymous. Fill in the name of the FreeNAS server identifies the network on the NetBIOS name, so that later can be recognized by Windows computers. Specify workgroup where FreeNAS server will join. Fill in any labels on all Description section. Do not press the Save and Restart once.

17. Open Shares used tab. This section serves to establish the folders to be shared. Of course, the files will be more organized if the folders are sorted in a more-specific flder. In the Name, fill in the desired folder name. Give any entries in the Comment section. Press the button marked three points on the path, then navigate to the RAID mount point that we form. Do not put a check (tick) in the Read Only, unless you want to network members can only read and copy the files in the FreeNAS server. Put a check (tick) in the browseable so that this folder can be viewed by members of the network. If you are finished, click the Add button.

18. You can add a folder click the icon sharing with the plus sign (plus) and do step 17. Do not forget to apply the configuration folder sharing that we have already set with the click Apply Changes button.

19. Go back to the Settings tab, press the Save and Restart.

Changing RAID Types

What if you want to change the type of RAID? The first step is to backup all the files used in RAID is much older then, because changing the RAID will destroy all data. After that, the following steps:

1. Click the sub menu below mount points in the Disk menu. Management tab. Select the mount point, then remove with a click on the icon letter e (Erase).

2. Apply removal mount point with the click Apply Changes button.

3. Click the sub menu under the Software RAID Disk menu. Select the RAID, then click the icon to delete the letter e (Erase).

4. Return to Software RAID sub menu, click the type of RAID you want. As an example of this practice is JBOD. Then press the plus sign icon (plus).

5. In the Name RAID, RAID fill with new identities. Put a check (tick) on the hard disk will be arranged in the new RAID. Activate the Create option is Initialize RAID. When finished, click the Add button.

6. Apply the new RAID configuration with the click Apply Changes button.

7. The next step, follow steps 11-19, Advanced Configuration chapter.

FreeNAS server access from members Computer Network (Client)

Well, now we have FreeNAS server and have become active. It is time we move on a computer network members and try to plunge or copy files from the server made-in my self, this homemade alias.

1. Open the My Network Places box or click the Start button> Run. Fill in the FreeNAS server IP number, preceded two backslash sign (--), eg: - 10.15.38.235, then press the Enter key.

2. Try to copy (copies) files from the client computer hard disk and add (paste) into the FreeNAS server folder.

Box 2: Installing FreeNAS in Flashdisk or Disk

In addition to running as Live_CD, FreeNAS can also be installed into the USB or Harddrive Flashdisk. If you want to install to the hard disk, the disk used to install FreeNAS can not be used to store data. In other words, can not be arranged in RAID. So, you need a minimum of 3 hard drives.

1. Run FreeNAS as a Live-CD, after arriving at the configuration option (Setup) as in the discussion Initial Configuration, type the option number 9, then press Enter.

2. Next, navigate to the option Istall 'Embedded' OS on HDD / Flash / USB ". Highlight the OK button and press Enter.

3. Navigate to the location of media files from FreeNAS, which is in the CD-ROM with the label known cd0. Highlight the OK button and press Enter.

4. Select the media where FreeNAS is installed. Choose USB flash which is known as a label or a hard disk da0 are recognized as ad0. Do not select the disk to be arranged in RAID and used as a place to store the data in the network. Highlight the OK button and press Enter.

5. After the installation finishes, restart your computer and change the first boot priority in BIOS to the medium used to install FreeNAS. Save the boot configuration and exit the BIOS. After the computer restarts, booting from the media would do a new install FreeNAS (Flasdisk USB, CF card, or hard disk).

Congratulations and enjoy creating your own file server

Harddisk Problem Solution : Addressing the MBR Damage

In the disk, there is a file called the MBR (Master Boot Record). This file is located on the first byte and the first sector of your hard disk; really just the first. Understandably, this is the MBR marker disk presence. If the analogy, the MBR is like a map that leads the BIOS to find hard drive.

But many things can cause the MBR is damaged, such as a virus or accidentally formatted. If that happens, the operating system lost the signpost marked by the emergence of the message Operating System not found or missing operating system on the screen.

The solution of this problem is to restore the MBR file. The most common way is to make the process of recovery from the Windows CD. Way, boot to the Windows CD and select Repair (by pressing the R button) and enter the Recovery Console. After that, type fixmbr command to restore the MBR file.

For Windows Vista, the same concept although the procedure is slightly different. First, boot into Windows Vista DVD and select Repair Your Computer. When the System Recovery Options appears, select Command Prompt. After the Command Prompt window appears, type Bootrec.exe and press Enter.

If the Windows CD either gone anywhere, you can use the application of the Rescue Kit 9.0 Paragon Express artificial. This is a free application that has diverse functions, including restore the MBR. This application is bootable, meaning can be burned to a CD and a source of the boot process. When the system showed signs of loss of MBR, you have to do is boot to the CD containing this Rescue Kit. After that, select Corrector Boot menu, follow the procedures that have been determined, and the case lost MBR should have been resolved.

Harddisk Problem Solution: Windows Damage

Cases around the hard drive more often than Windows on the hard disk is badly damaged so that we can not enter into it. In such cases, the only solution is to reinstall Windows. The problem, often in the hard disk or partition containing Windows is still there are many important files that must be saved. Then, how it?

Use a bootable applications, and can explore (browse) a file on disk is problematic. Again, you can use the Disk Rescue 9.0 Express, Very easy to use, you simply follow the wizard (the wizard) from the menu File Transfer Wizard. Unfortunately, this free version can not move these files to CD / DVD. So, you must copy the files to a flash or external hard drive.

Rescue Disk Express but can only work from the CD. If you prefer the process of the flash, use a portable Linux operating system that can boot from flash (live-USB). Almost all Linux distributions have a portable version, but it should be noted that the mounting process (introduction of hard disk contents) often must be done manually. Therefore, we recommend using Puppy Linux distributions because these distributions do the automatic mounting. Size Puppy Linux also only 100MB, so the fit on the flash is small size.

Keeping Harddisk Healty

In all PATA and SATA hard drives on the market today, is already embedded features SMART (Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology) that specifically detects the hard disk's health. In the SMART parameters were about 30 hard drives health, ranging from temperature, spin-out time, to seek error rate. From this data could be inferred if the hard disk on your PC is still healthy, or already ill.

To read this SMART data, we need specialized applications such as HD Tunes. The main functions of this application is measuring the speed of disk, but can be to read the SMART information, too. HD 15 Tunes will read SMART parameters, with 3 types of results, the current, worst, and the threshold. The definition of each outcome is:

· Current: current state of your hard disk

· Worst: the smallest number ever found in the previous generation hard drives

· Threshold: the limits below which shows the damaged hard drive

· Data: raw data from sensors or counters.
