...window of vulnerability ITT tech | Window of Vulnerability | Review of unauthorized access to SMB server. | | Cory Reiss | 4/1/2014 | This is the Window of Vulnerability For a patch to a newly discovered exploit residing in manufacturer software. | The security breach was detected by the server software manufacturer and a patch is currently being worked on. This vulnerability affects the SMB server giving access to an unauthorized user. The estimated time for the patch to be completed is three days with 7 additional days required for testing and executing the patch. There has been no documented timeline on when the security exploit was established, discovered, or executed. From discovery of the breach yesterday to final completion of fix there is a window of vulnerability consisting of 11 days. From the information presented the exploit only affects the SMB server. If the unauthorized user is able to run an interactive shell this should not be taken likely. Recommended procedure should be to block access on ports defined or suspend the server if possible. Access to SMB can put all of your files at risk and an aftermarket firewall blocking all IP ranges not specified in the workgroup should lower and impede the effectiveness of the exploit. Scans should be run to assess the possibility of injected code or malware. Someone skilled in security forensics should be deployed to assess the files affected or viewed. This can also give you a direction to search for...

According to ancient Vedic texts (and later through Tantric and Taoist traditions), the energetic, or subtle, body is the foundation of the food, or coarse body, and the bridge between the physical and causal realms. Therefore, the structure of the subtle energetic body provides an intended means for human spiritual development, or evolution (which enables humanity to fulfill its purpose as a conduit between heaven and earth, hence transforming into an entity more subtle, and original). The text’s primary purpose is to present oriental bio-energetic theory, and second, to bridge...
