Exchange 2003

Was doing some work for a client on the weekend with Microsoft Exchange 2003. I ran into this error:

exchange 2003 error

How does something like that even pass QA?

Sussen 0.90

Sussen 0.90 has been released. Sussen is a tool that checks for vulnerabilities and configuration issues on computer systems.

We are getting closer to v1.0. The remaining items to do are to fix the remaining bugs in bugzilla, clean up the look/feel of the web console. The editor has been disabled for now, it won’t be ready in time for 1.0, but we’ll keep working on it for the 1.1/1.2 branch.

We are also working on setting up an OVAL repository so we can provide updated definitions in a more timely manner. I’ll have more details on that later.

Changes since 0.35:

  • editor: Disabled editor; will continue development in 1.1/1.2 branch
  • oval: Added initial support for OVAL 5.3
  • oval: API documentation updated
  • misc: Change license to GPL v3
  • www: Various improvements to web console
  • xml: Updated Ubuntu definitions for USNs 425-1 to 483-1
  • xml: Updated Windows definitions from oval.mitre.org

Sussen now OVAL compatible

Earlier today, Sussen was certified as being OVAL compatible. Here is the message we got:

Congratulations! MMG Security’s Sussen has been granted official OVAL
Compatibility. The OVAL Community is excited to add you to the growing
list of products and services that have embraced the initiative and are
working to make IT Security better for all.

The OVAL web site should now reflect this status. We will also be
presenting you with a formal certificate, either by mail or at an
upcoming conference.

Thank you again for you support of OVAL!

Currently it’s only for the Windows version though. We had some issues with XML validation under Linux/Mono. We reported the bugs, they got fixed and are just waiting for the next Mono release. Since the Linux and Windows versions share 90%+ of their code we don’t expect any major issues getting the Linux version certified as well.
