A couple of links over at Linux Security caught my eye:

A paper on how to attack LDAP based web forms. SQL injection attacks are old school now, but I’d never thought to apply it to LDAP queries.

A cool use of Net::Pcap – write a daemon that promiscuously listens for a door knock, and then perform an action based on it. I’ve read other papers using iptables for such tasks, but I find this more elegant.

Read, share, enjoy.
