XML data Island workaround may affect clients wth exchange 2003 outlook web access
J.T. wrote in to tell us there is an issue with the XML Data Island CLSID workaround for the zero day IE vulnerability.
"If the Disable XML Island functionality work around is used, users are
no longer able to send emails with Exchange 2003 Outlook Web Access.
When the user clicks the send button to send the message, the following
alert is displayed: "You do not have permissions to delete this item".
If the user clicks "OK" on the prompt window, the message window is
closed and the message is not sent.
When XML island functionality is re-enabled, the message is delivered as
expected."
I assume this implies that outlook webmail requires embedded xml in
html as Microsoft did list this as an impact.

"Impact of workaround: Embedded XML in HTML may not render correctly."
Cisco's Annual Security report has been released.
Cisco released their 2008 Annual Security report.
http://cisco.com/en/US/prod/vpndevc/annual_security_report.html
It is a good report highlighting security threats and trends.
This is fairly comprehensive. Its 52 pages in length and very well done.
They have chapter on Security Risks and trends, data loss, Human Factors,
Insider Threats, Issues of trust, vulnerabilities, Geopolitical and
political conflicts, Countering Internet Security Threats and a
Conclusion chapter.
Of course they couldn't cover everything but for a good review
of the kinds of things that happened in the last year from an
Internet based perspective this is a very good report to read.
