Mar 19, 2011Parental control
Mar 14, 2011Parental control, also known as URL Filtering or web filtering software, is a term for software designed and optimized for controlling what content is permitted to children, especially when it is used to restrict material delivered over the Web. As rule, Parental control determines what content will be available for children in accordance with restrictions applied by a parent and helps parents to monitor the Internet activities of their children.
The motive is often to prevent children from viewing harmful Web content like phonographic, violation, drug, gambling and more. Some Parental control software includes time control functions that empowers parents to set the amount of time that child may spend accessing the Internet or playing games or other computer activities.

Persistent XSS Vulnerability in Facebook
Mar 10, 2011There is a JavaScript Spam trick on Facebook resulting in spam messages being posted on many user accounts. First mentioned yesterday by Internet security experts at GFI Software, the persistent cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability still remains unpatched as of this writing.
So, what happened? Some attacker has discovered a XSS vulnerability which can be used to inject JavaScript through specially crafted Facebook application pages. Normally the script would be removed by filters before the page is shown to the user, but in this case, it is able to slip through. The malicious script will then be executed in the context of Facebook.com, allowing it to perform requests under the user’s session. Keep in mind this happens before the application asks for any permissions. Visiting the page while being logged into Facebook is enough to get it started, which is normally the case when a user is viewing new messages.
