1) Word From Secunia:
The Secunia staff is spending hours every day to assure you the best
and most reliable source for vulnerability information. Every single
vulnerability report is being validated and verified before a Secunia
advisory is written.
Secunia validates and verifies vulnerability reports in many different
ways e.g. by downloading the software and performing comprehensive
tests, by reviewing source code, or by validating the credibility of
the source from which the vulnerability report was issued.
As a result, Secunia's database is the most correct and complete source
for recent vulnerability information available on the Internet.

========================================================================
2) This Week in Brief:
A vulnerability in the rsync service has been identified, which
reportedly has been used in the compromise of several servers in the
past few months. The vulnerability allows malicious people to execute
arbitrary code with privileges of the rsync service.
Also, almost all Linux distributors have been very fast to issue fixed
packages for this vulnerability, and all administrators are advised to
check for available updates.
Ref.: [SA10353]
Another vulnerability in Internet Explorer has been revealed. This time
it is possible to completely spoof content in the address bar. This
could easily be used to trick users into believing they are on a
trusted domain rather than on a malicious web site trying to get users
to reveal sensitive information.
Users are advised not to follow links from untrusted sources or to
verify digital certificates before entering any sensitive information.
Ref.: [SA10395]
Yahoo! Messenger has been reported vulnerable to Cross-Site Scripting
attacks. The vulnerability can be used to execute HTML or script code
in context of Yahoo! Messenger.
All users of Yahoo! Messenger are advised to install the fixed version.
Ref.: [SA10370]
