[001] - 64 Studio 0.9.2
by Daniel James (http://freshmeat.net/users/danieljames/)
Thu, Aug 17th 2006 05:13
Artistic Software
Multimedia :: Graphics
Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
About: 64 Studio is a collection of native free software for digital
content creation on x86_64 hardware (AMD's 64-bit CPUs and Intel's EM64T
chips). It's based on the pure 64 port of Debian GNU/Linux, but with a
specialised package selection and lots of other customisations. The
distribution includes the Linux kernel with realtime preemption patches,
the GNOME desktop, and a selection of creative applications, covering
audio and music, 2D and 3D graphics, and publishing for the Web and print.
It also includes Internet and office tools that a creative user is likely
to need for their daily work.
Changes: A number of bugs were fixed. An alternative i386 build is now
provided for 32-bit PCs. Several known bugs remain: software RAID support
via mdadm is broken, printconf takes too long during install, and after an
offline install, Synaptic may produce an error message.

[002] - BruteBlock 0.0.4
by Alex Samorukov (http://freshmeat.net/users/sammdev/)
Thu, Aug 17th 2006 05:57
Internet :: Log Analysis
Security
System :: Networking :: Monitoring
About: Bruteblock allows system administrators to block various bruteforce
attacks on UNIX services. The program analyzes system logs and adds
attackers' IP addresses into the ipfw2 table, effectively blocking them.
Addresses are automatically removed from the table after specified amount
of time. Bruteblock uses regular expressions to parse logs, which gives it
enough flexibility to be used with almost any network service. Bruteblock
doesn't use any external programs and works with ipfw2 tables via the raw
sockets API.

Communications :: Email
Communications :: Email :: Address Book
Communications :: Email :: Email Clients (MUA)
About: Brutus is an Exchange connector and development framework that
offers access to all of MAPI and therefore to all versions of Microsoft
Exchange from version 5.5 onwards. It is a complete wrapping of all of
MAPI into a (large) set of CORBA interfaces. It enables any groupware
client to integrate seamlessly into any organization with large Exchange
deployments on an equal footing with MS Outlook. Being based on CORBA, it
is platform independent, and works equally well on Linux, the BSDs,
Windows, or wherever there is a CORBA implementation available.
Changes: The performance of evolution-brutus was fixed by using
g_thread_create() instead of g_timeout_add() to implement asynchronous
update operations.

Education
Information Management
About: Emdros is a text database engine for annotated or analyzed text. It
is applicable in linguistics, publishing, text processing, and other fields
dealing with annotated text. Emdros has a powerful query language for
asking relevant questions of the data. It is middleware, acting as a layer
between a client (written by the user), and an underlying database.
PostgreSQL and MySQL are supported.
Changes: All db backends can now reside in the same binary, thus reducing
the complexity for the system administrator. A number of bugs were fixed.
Mac OS X support was greatly improved, as was Solaris support. Two
importers were added, one for plain text and the other for the linguistic
"slashed text" format. The Unix builds now use the system-wide SQLite
and/or PCRE libraries if present. Significant speed increases were gained
on topographic queries, especially on multi-million-token corpora. A lot
of Doxygen documentation was added.

About: Getmail-cfg.sh is a script for configuring getmail. It is written
for users who want to manage multiple accounts and fetch mail from them.
When setting up user accounts, it tries to guess some of the values (like
Maildir or mbox) and sets the appropriate values in the configuration.
Calling the script without arguments will fetch the mail from all accounts
that are already configured for that user.
Changes: Some issues with IMAP4 were fixed.

Software Development :: Libraries
System :: Operating System
System :: Operating System Kernels
About: The HelenOS project is an effort to develop a working operating
system. HelenOS supports SMP, multitasking, and multithreading on 32-bit
and 64-bit, little-endian and big-endian processor architectures, among
which are AMD64/EM64T (x86-64), IA-32, IA-64 (Itanium), 32-bit MIPS,
32-bit PowerPC, SPARC V9, and Xen. The extent to which these architectures
are supported differs from architecture to architecture. Some run on real
hardware, and some run only in a simulator.
Changes: This release brings support for Xen 3.0 via the new xen32 port
and more virtualization via partitioning resources into separate kernel
contexts. The sparc64 port has been improved so that the kernel boots on a
real Sun Ultra 5 workstation. A new sparc64 boot loader and support for
more Sun-specific devices was added. Finally, HelenOS is now more portable
because it is C99 compliant.

[032] - SQLIer 0.8.1b

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: Dynamic Content
Security
About: SQLIer takes an URL vulnerable to SQL injection attacks and
attempts to determine all of the necessary information to build and
exploit an SQL injection hole by itself. It requires no user interaction
unless it can't guess the table/field names correctly. By doing so, it can
build a UNION SELECT query designed to brute force passwords out of the
database. It does not use quotes in the exploit, meaning it will work for
a wider range of sites. An 8 character password (containing any character
from decimal ASCII code 1-127) takes approximately one minute to crack.
Changes: Non-blind injection support was added along with support for
subquery-based exploits. "UNION SELECT" exploits now attempt to bypass
some common filtering mechanisms before giving up. The detection engine
was altered, fixing a bunch of injection issues. Various other bugfixes
and engine tweaks were made.

Software Development :: Compilers
Software Development :: Debuggers
About: Ultimate++ is a cross-platform C++ rapid application development
suite. It includes set of libraries (for things like GUI and SQL) and an
integrated development environment. Rapid development is achieved by smart
and aggressive use of C++ rather than through fancy code generators. In
this respect, U++ competes with popular scripting languages while
preserving C/C++ runtime characteristics. Its integrated development
environment, TheIDE, introduces modular conception to C++ programming, and
can be used to develop non-U++ applications.
