As you may have noticed here through our partner website news, a 17-years old promoted his own website (StalkDaily) through a JS worm that infected several profiles in the Twitter network.

The author released a short interview for BNO News where he claims the responsability for the worm activity and explain few things.

You can now find the Worm source code in our Worms Database to view and analize it.

The XSS Cheats section has been just lightly updated with a couple of new features included you can now:
• Use the "export list" function which permits you to get the whole list of published XSS vectors submittes by the users, useful for fuzzing for example,
• You can now test with the "Test it!" link each vector in the page and check how it acts towards a real XSS vulnerability.

Enjoy and have fun!

* Changed the standard error output's look.
* Added the possibility to choose if page generation and the request should be aborted or not.

After an inactive period the forums are finally back with some fix and modifications in order to make it more useable from all the users that alwawys proved their support to XSSing.com and its activities.

The spam issue has always ruined the forum activity so now it's up with two new features that should help in this way:
- the registration form now have an image verification that should most likely avoid spambots to register to the forum
- the forums flow is now monitored by Akismet, which is configured to disable spam posts and ban those users creating them.

It will probably get some false positive and disable legitimate posts and ban unguilty users: if this happens to you just contact us and clarify the problem and we'll restore your account.

Hope you enjoy and strike back to the forum!
Stay tuned.

As you may know our Forum is using that Bulletin Board and in order to keep the data safe we already updated the software to the latest patched version 1.2.17, which solved this and other security issues affecting the previous versions.

The Cascading Style Sheet files will be restored within today, but if you notice any malfunctioning feel free to contact us.
