Wow, that's pretty amazing. Now one can't trust somewhat 50% of all Microsoft Computers. That's rather fun, wouldn't you say? On May 19, 2004, at 14:11, A.H. wrote:By Jesper M. Johansson, Ph.D., CISSP, MCSE, MCP+I Security Program Manager Microsoft Corporation:You can’t clean a compromised system by using some “vulnerability remover.” Let’s say you had a system hit by Blaster. A number of vendors (including Microsoft) published vulnerability removers for Blaster. Can you trust a system that had Blaster after the tool is run? I wouldn’t. If the system was vulnerable to Blaster, it was also vulnerable to a number of other attacks. Can you guarantee that none of those have been run against it? I didn’t think so. You can’t trust any data copied from a compromised system. Once an attacker gets into a system, all the data on it may be modified. In the best-case scenario, copying data off a compromised system and putting it on a clean system will give you potentially untrustworthy data. In the worst-case scenario, you may actually have copied a back door hidden in the data.http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community/columns/secmgmt/sm0504.mspx http://www.vsantivirus.com/derribar-reconstruir.htm _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
