Yahoo! Blog Admins Noticed my Security Warning

August 10th, 2007

I just installed Casey Bisson’s bsuite Wordpress Plugin (a tool for blog statistics, very nice!) and what is popping up in my Referer Logs?

You got it, it seems that the Yahoo! Engineers noticed my Article (the “Yahoo! Blogs are Open For Hacks” thingy) and they followed the incoming Links, more precise the Pings and Trackbacks my Blog has sent to them. So they went directly into my arms. :o)

And Now I’m so sorry that I removed the Wordpress XSS Worm’s Code from my Blog’s index.php this morning. It could have shown them what Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities are capable of. Damn.

For my statistics: This is the second chance to prank a big company and I missed it again, that means I really gotta go to bed. Have a good night!
