Control the behaviour of your cdrom device This program allows you to control the behaviour of your Linux cdrom player. You'll need a cdrom device that complies to the new interface defined in linux/Documentation/cdrom/cdrom-standard.tex. For kernel 2.0 this is only the cm206 drive, for kernel 2.1 this includes IDE and SCSI drives. You can control: auto close, auto eject, medium type checking and tray locking. You can get information on the volume name of cdroms and other data, and you can set the speed of your drive and choose a disc from a jukebox. In order to fully exploit the possibilities, you'll need libc6 and a recent version of the the linux kernel, but you will get decent error behaviour in return. Expect a message "No medium found" if you attempt to mount an empty drive or "Wrong medium type" if you try to mount an audio disc, instead of a whole load of kernel error messages. The source of this package may be an example for cdrom player program developers that wish to exploit the features of the new cdrom interface. From Debian 3.0r0 APT

This distribution was created by the original Sorcerer GNU/Linux author, Kyle Sallee. Sources are downloaded directly from software authors' homepages and mirrors. Then, they are compiled with the architecture and optimizations that the system administrator specifies. Finally, it is installed, tracked, and archived for easy removal and upgrades. Sorcerer has both both command line and menu driven package mangement programs. A public beta, not backward compatible with previous releases of SGL, was made available April 14, 2002.

In network network protocols, source routing is the capability whereby the sender can specify the route a packet should take. Analogy: Somebody asks you how to get to the freeway. You can give them two responses: You tell them to drive a little further on, and there will be signs pointing to the freeway. You tell them just to follow the signs. This is normal routing: you simply hand the packet off to the routers, and let them worry about which direction the packet takes. You tell them to drive up 3 blocks, turn left, then go 2 blocks, then turn right, then go one more block and bear left onto the onramp. This is source routing: you tell the packet every hop it should take through the network. Key point: The hacker can give the packets routes that go around firewalls. From Hacking-Lexicon

Most spam comes through open SMTP relays. Spam is generally sent through the SMTP mail transfer protocol, though spammers are increasingly making use of web-based e-mail. A big source of spam comes from people who spider websites looking for web-pages that contain e-mail addresses. Since a lot of a web-sites will archive mailing lists and USENET groups, posting to a "private" list will often still expose your e-mail address. The SirCam worm of 2001 spidered the HTML files on the local web-browser cache to forward e-mail, creating a hugely effective manner for discovering new e-mail addresses. Spammers will usually spoof their e-mail address -- you can virtually never reply to the "sender" e-mail address. Netiquette: Use Bcc to send to multiple recipients rather than Cc: or To: fields in order to avoid exposing friends e-mail addresses to potential spammers. Firewalls don't block spam. The @Home cable modem ISP now regularly scans its customers for open USENET relays that spammers often hijack in order to forward spam on newsgroups. Some people are so emotionally against spam that they will will completely shun all access from networks known to be sources of spam. Websites will sometimes scan clients with SNMP or NetBIOS in order to discover their login name. Likewise, some websites sift HTTP fields for usernames (though virtually all web-browsers have disabled this feature). A Rumpelstiltskin attack is where a spammer sends e-mail to all possible names (a@example.com, b@example.com, c@example.com, ...) at a domain. This is similar to a brute-force attack.

An extremely aggressive Scheme compiler. stalin is an aggressive self-hosting Scheme compiler, designed to generate resource efficient stand-alone executables with very high computational performance. It is a batch mode compiler like gcc, not an interpreter, and is designed to be used only after your code has stabilized. It places a few limitations on the content of the source code. For example, you may not not LOAD or EVAL new expressions or procedure definitions at runtime, but in exchange, it is able to perform various global analyses which may allow it to transparently map Scheme types to C types and to use native C arithmetic operations on a per-expression basis, whenever such operations are proven safe. Further stalin can often reduce or eliminate run-time type checking and dispatching, and omit garbage collection for data of limited scope or accessability, while omitting unreachable data altogether. stalin also has a foreign procedure interface to both Xlib and OpenGL.

On UNIX, a symbolic link is where a file in one directory acts as a pointer to a file in another directory. For example, you could create a link so that all accesses to the file /tmp/foo really act upon the file /etc/passwd. This feature can often be exploited. While a non-root user does not have permission to write to administrative files like /etc/passwd, they can certainly create links to them in the /tmp directory or their local directory. SUID can then be exploited whereby they believe they are acting upon a user file, which which are instead acting upon the original administrative file. This is the leading way that local users can escalate their privileges on a system. Example: finger A user could link their .plan file to any other file on the system. A finger daemon running with root privileges would then follow the link to that file and read it upon execution of a finger lookup. From Hacking-Lexicon

SYMPA means 'Systhme de Multi-Postage Automatique' (French) or 'Automatic Mailing System' (English). It is written in Perl and uses some modules (mailtools, md5, msgcat, db).
