Forgot a few, or rather neglected to mention them, because I have no
good response, and am acknowledging the argument by omitting a
response. I'm responding here in the interest of fairness:

Pro: MAC policies are complex because what you're trying to do is complex.
Anti: So you're saying MAC is complex because MAC is complex?
Pro: I guess so. ;-)

I don't have a good way to defend this, but it seems to me that, in
general, the more fine-grained...

Okay, I'll feed him... ;-)

I'm the one who came forward a few years ago - not as saying SELinux
is a silver bullet - but rather that it's not entirely worthless (as
many curmudgeons would have you believe).

That you can defeat a kernel-level protection with a kernel-level
exploit isn't news. Saltzer & Schroeder pointed out that a
"supervisor program" must protect itself long ago. To reliably
enforce a protection mechanism, you...

Bug in vde_plug, remote exploitation possible?

Vde (virtual distributed ethernet) is an ethernet compliant virtual network that
can be spawned over a set of physical computers over the internet ... (see
http://vde.sourceforge.net).

The vde_plug (at least on ubuntu hardy) contains a bug, that is triggered when a
certain amount of encapsulated ether frame data is sent to the plug in a
specially timed manner. When the input buffer is filled just with a single byte,
vde_plug uses also the first...

If your OS's security model "understands" programs and data belong in
different security domains then every instruction of code on your computer
is trusted to enforce that policy. Your line of defence goes through every
program and any bug can breach it. The failure is inevitable. [1]

Re: question regarding RSA

Full Disclosure - 5 hours 27 min ago

Posted by Pavel Kankovsky on Sep 02

You made general questions about RSA as a cryptographic primitive.
There was nothing about PKI in them.

RSA encryption uses public keys. Public keys are--as their name
suggests--supposed to be known publicly. Anyone can compute ciphertexts
from plaintexts. An encryption oracle will not help you crack RSA private
keys. If you can do it with the oracle, you can do it without the oracle
as well.

As far as encryption is concerned the purpose of...
