October is Octoberfest Advisory month: one rfp.labs release planned each week
for the whole month of October!  (Now, let's see if I can pull it off....)

----[ 1. Revoke/Update of RFP9903

        Ok, I released RFP9903 detailing a little bug about insecure
AeDebug registry permissions yesterday.  Unfortunately, I did not do
thorough homework, as Mnemonix (who is always two steps ahead of me in my
though processes :) had reported this vulnerability as early as July 1998
(!) to NTBugtraq.  Apologies and credits then to Mnemonix, and kudos to 
Russ Cooper for catching my booboo.  RFP9903 was cancelled for
distribution, but it may have leaked out in a few channels. So, to save
face, I am releasing another advisory in it's place, in efforts to
maintain the Octoberfest advisory festival!  Anyways, onto the info (don't
want to be as long as my RDS advisory. ;)

----[ 2. Problem

        TeamTrack server, published by TeamShare, is available from
www.teamtrack.com.  It's purpose, to quote the web search engine spam
located at the bottom of their website:

        teamshare teamtrack web based defect bug tracking track teamshare
        teamtrack web based defect bug tracking track teamshare teamtrack 
        web based defect bug tracking track 

        The problem is with the included web server they use to access the
database--it allows unrestricted retrieval of any file on the filesystem.

        In case you haven't figured it out already, it runs on NT, and as
a service.  This means it has system access to any file.

----[ 3. Solution

        TeamTrack also includes the option to use Netscape
FastTrack/Enterprise or IIS instead.  I suggest you look into this.  The
SP4 readme includes information/instructions on how to migrate to one of
these webservers.

----[ 4. Miscellaneous Updates (From RFP9903)

        - Like I mentioned before, October is Octoberfest Advisory month.
I'm going to attempt to release something every week.  Hopefully you'll
find the stuff worthwhile...I think there's some planned goodies.  A
little NT, a little unix, a little web, all good. :)  Why Octoberfest?
Simply because I can. :)

        - My website is narrowing completion!  Many people have been
wondering if I have archives of my releases, programs, research, etc.  The
answer is 'yes', and soon it will be made public.  More information on
this in the next release (next week :)

        - Many people have emailed me wondering about the release of version
two of the RDS script.  This is one of the planned releases.  Gimme time
to finish coding it.

        - Why the formal advisory numbering system and format?  Well, it's
really to better organize my own personal filing, really.  And you'll see
how it fits into my website design in a little bit.  In case you're
wondering, RFP9901 was the ODBC article posted May 25th, and RFP9902 was
the RDS posted June 23rd? (or July 23rd).

        - Phrack 55 is out--good stuff.  www.phrack.com  Packetstorm is back.
packetstorm.securify.com.  Technotronic still rules.  www.technotronic.com.

        - Practical application of one of the perl problems I talked about in
Phrack 55 landed JFS $1,000 for hacking securelinux.hackpcweek.com. 
Congrats, JFS.
