|
| Well kiddies, it's Easter time again. Easter has got to be one of my |
| favorite holidays of the bunch. No, no, no...not for any of that spiritual |
| rebirth or religious hooey. Easter brings with it two of the most joyous |
| items in the world: Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs and Marshmallow Peeps. |
|
|
| In the past two weeks I have eaten my body weight many times over |
| in peanut butter eggs. I don't know what it is about those damn things, but |
| I just can't stop eating them. And the Peeps? Oh man, if you haven't put |
| a Marshmallow Peep in the microwave, you just haven't lived. The cute |
| little yellow duckie takes on whole new dimensions as it becomes superheated |
| in the nuclear nightmare of a conventional microwave oven. It becomes |
| like a scene from Akira as the Peep grows at an alarming rate, almost filling |
| up the entire oven with its grossly mutated form. You can almost hear |
| it squealing with agony. Go do it right now, and then finish reading this |
| issue. |
|
|
| The net has been more fun the past few months than a barrel full of monkeys, |
| (or a hottub full of co-eds, pick your own comparison). In the time since |
| last issue I have been the subject of a lot of attention. I've been |
| pseudo-framed for hacking a handful of sites with fake syslog messages, I've |
| been spoofed as the source of a pre-release CERT advisory, I've been |
| mentioned in numerous altered motd files on many systems, and even better, |
| spoofed messages from "erikb@mindvox.phantom.com" were posted to a |
| homosexual listserv announcing my supposed "exit from the closet." |
|
|
| Well, unfortunately for everyone, including the hundreds of hopeful gay |
| respondents to the forged post, I only like women. But it sure is nice to |
| know that even men are into me. What an ego boost. Seriously though, one |
| has to wonder how the forgers knew that something called queernet.org |
| even existed. I think I get around on the net, but I'd never heard of it. |
| Have you? Perhaps the Posse are 'closer' than we thought. |
|
|
| And the abuse continues. God knows why. The common thread seems to be: |
| "Erikb is a nark." Let's look at that logic, shall we? If Erikb is a |
| nark, then he would be on some terms with law enforcement. If he were |
| on some terms with law enforcement, then he would have no qualms about |
| handing over names of people doing bad things. If had no qualms about |
| handing over names of people doing bad things, then law enforcement would |
| open cases based on that information. If law enforcement opened cases based |
| on that information, then people would get raided. If people would get |
| raided, then people would almost certainly go to jail. |
|
|
| Why on earth would someone want to evoke a chain of events that would |
| land them in jail? Or do they not believe their own statements about |
| me being a nark? Or are they convinced that they are so good that |
| they cannot get caught? Or are they just pathetically stupid? |
|
|
| Personally I choose the latter. These guys are not good. And they are |
| very dumb. They make more mistakes than I've seen in a long time. And |
| they've pissed off very powerful people. (No, I'm not including myself in |
| that list of 'Powerful People.') It's good that much of MOD is getting out |
| of jail soon. Now those guys were legitimately GOOD HACKERS. They were |
| definitely assholes, but damn good computer hackers. It will be nice to have |
| some harassment from dickheads with skills once again. |
|
|
| But I digress. |
|
|
| Phrack's gotten a bit of notice as of late. In Mondo-2000, in their |
| "Pirate Media" article, and in Richard Kadrey's "Covert Culture" |
| sourcebook. Of course both of these got the subscription information |
| wrong, but hell, I've learned to expect as much. Also, the mention |
| of Phreak Accident's fantastic "Playing Hide & Seek -- Unix Style" |
| article in Dan Farmer and Weitse Venema's "Improving The Security of |
| Your Site by Breaking Into It" article brought in hundreds of |
| new subscribers. Let's see how many of these security people register. |
| (How many fingers am I holding up?) |
|
|
| Speaking of such, Phrack has a couple of other registrations now. One is a |
| teacher who wanted to use Phrack in her class. Kudos to her! The other was |
| a cool guy who just wanted to register because he felt like it. Why |
| can't the rest of you be more like him? |
|
|
| Anyway, the money is going to sponsor a new contest. (Considering how |
| well the last one went...not!) This time, we are serious, so read in |
| LINE NOISE for more info. |
|
|
| What else? Phrack has now made the big time in the Federal Penal system. |
| We're the proud recipients of the Bureau of Prisons form 328(58). Our |
| material was considered to be a breach of security of the institution. |
| This, of course, pissed me off. But hell, on the same form, they |
| denote how "Body Hair, Plant Shavings, and Sexually Explicit Personal |
| Photos" are also inappropriate. Phrack or Body Hair. You make the call. |
|
|
| Phrack 45...let's see... |
|
|
| If this issue doesn't cause neck hairs to bristle on everyone within spying |
| distance of the beltway, I will be very disappointed. It's amazing what you |
| find in your mailbox. |
|
|
| We've got a lot of nifty things in this issue. More source code for |
| you to play with, uuencoded goodness, cellular info, telco / pbx info, |
| Ho Ho Con coverage, ancient hack memorabilia, and a plethora of spurious |
| scatological material. (translated: lots of other crap) |
|
|
| Enjoy. |
