Southern writes "HTTPS Everywhere 1.0 has been released, and the project is out of beta. Version 1.0 includes support for over 1,000 new sites, a better UI, and performance improvements.
HTTPS Everywhere is a Firefox extension produced as a collaboration between The Tor Project and the Electronic Frontier Foundation. It encrypts your communications with a number of major websites. Many sites on the web offer some limited support for encryption over HTTPS, but make it difficult to use. For instance, they may default to unencrypted HTTP, or fill encrypted pages with links that go back to the unencrypted site. The HTTPS Everywhere extension fixes these problems by rewriting all requests to these sites to HTTPS. Firefox users can get it by clicking here:

Race conditions in security dialogs
Southern writes "From www.squarefree.com I discovered arbitrary code execution holes in Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Opera that involve human reaction time. One version of the attack works like this:
The secret word fills the blank in the sentence 'If ____ web developers would use alternate text correctly!' It is all lowercase.
The page contains a captcha displaying the word "only" and asks you to type the word to verify that you are a human. As soon as you type 'n', the site attempts to install software, resulting in a security dialog. When you type 'y' at the end of the word, you trigger the 'Yes' button in the dialog. I made a demo of this attack for Firefox and Mozilla.
Another form of the attack involves convincing the user to double-click a certain spot on the screen. This spot happens to be the location where the 'Yes' button will appear. The first click triggers the dialog; the second click lands on the 'Yes' button. I made a demo of this attack for Firefox and Mozilla.

Backup Your MySQL Database Using PHP
Southern writes "One of the most important tasks any developer needs to do often is back up their MySQL database. In many cases, the database is what drives most of the site. While most web hosts do a daily backup of a customer's database, relying on them to make backups and provide them at no cost is risky to say the least. That's why I've created a database backup function that I can call whenever I want -- including nightly CRONs.

Graphical Support For Raven Nuke
papamike writes "About a year ago I designed some banners and transparent buttons that community members can add to their RN site to show their support for the best CMS out there.
When posting this, I noticed that there is no "support" option to choose for RN. I wonder why!
You can grab your free banner or transparent button by going here:
Come on, support RavenNuke(tm) .... a donation of $5.00 I'm sure helps. Think of the time and effort that the "Development Team" puts into designing quality products."
