i cant seem 2 find a references section in your paper that links to
previous work in the subject. is this an intended rip-off or are
you simply another amateur? otoh:

i'm also not buying into this whole "new attack class" thing. can
you really call exploiting null derefs (something that we knew
possible for quite a while) a "new attack class" because you
"found" a platform-specific way to attack them? i'd say it's a new
attack vector, if anything.

and please, can the security industry pull itself together and stop
publishing half-baked material? i know the job market is tough and
you need to justify your salary, but this is getting ridiculous...

Hey all,

I've released a short paper on the new attack class mentioned in
my CSW presentation.

Respect to all those who didn't buy into quack speculation before
the talk was given :)
