I am super-behind on my blog posting of Forensics/Security news of note.
Here is a rapid-fire linkfest dump.
Some is old news and some is hot-off-the-press.
Cross-pollination is to be expected.
Enjoy!

Please correct me I I am wrong but I am now seeing the terms “YAJ0” and “YAJU” pretty often in blog posts and titles. YAJ0 seems to mean “Yet Another Java Zero-Day” and YAJU probably means “Yet Another Java Update”. That both of these are now come in text-worthy shorthand forms is no LOL-ROLFLMAO matter.
And a final object lesson…
Be careful in your watchfulness to not overlook the obvious hiding in plain sight.
