LogicalDOC 6.7.1

Wed, 06/05/2013 - 11:15
LogicalDOC is a Web-based document management system that is easy to use and learn. Its architecture leverages best-of-breed Java technology to achieve a powerful and flexible solution. It supports its users with a powerful search engine (Lucene), Web service interface (JAX-WS via CXF) compatible with .NET and PHP, versioning, annotation on documents, a WebDAV interface, importing and exporting from .zip files. Documents can be organized into hierarchical folders, searched using the integrated search engine, or browsed by Tag. The system is extensible thanks to the technologies used (Spring-Hibernate) and its plugin architecture.

Release Notes: This release added the ability to edit metadata at checkin time, a new Croatian translation of the GUI, the ability to delete specific versions, an option to inherit security policies from the parent when creating a new fold, and a new standard analyzer (useful for indexing/search special kinds of documents). The French, German, and Brazilian Portuguese GUI localizations were updated, and the libraries for indexing and search (Apache Lucene - Solr) were upgraded. MySQL 5.6 compliance, an inability to save changes in Administration - Client and External Apps, and a problem with previewing documents were fixed.

PHP OAuth API 2013.06.05

Wed, 06/05/2013 - 07:07
PHP OAuth API authorizes user access using the OAuth protocol. It abstracts OAuth 1.0, 1.0a, and 2.0 in the same class. It provides built-in support for popular OAuth servers: Bitbucket, Box.net, Dropbox, Eventful, Facebook, Fitbit, Flickr, Foursquare, github, Google, Instagram, LinkedIn, Microsoft, RightSignature, Scoop.it, StockTwits, Tumblr, Twitter, XING, and Yahoo!. Every other OAuth server is supported by setting an endpoint URLs and other parameters using specific class variables. The class can also send requests to an API using the previously-obtained OAuth access token. For servers which support offline access, the class can renew expired tokens automatically using refresh tokens.

Release Notes: This release avoids MySQLi using functions that do not work when the MySQL Native Driver support is not enabled in the PHP installation. It also sets the cookie path for OAuth sessions stored in a database to / by default so it works when the return script URL is not the same as the OAuth callback script URL.

Plzip 1.0

Wed, 06/05/2013 - 07:06
Plzip is a massively parallel (multi-threaded), lossless data compressor based on the LZMA algorithm, with very safe integrity checking and a user interface similar to the one of gzip or lzip. It uses the lzip file format; the files produced by plzip are fully compatible with lzip-1.4 or newer, and can be rescued with lziprecover. It is intended for faster compression/decompression of big files on multiprocessor machines, which makes it especially well-suited for distribution of big software files and large scale data archiving. On files big enough (several GB), plzip can use hundreds of processors.

Release Notes: Scalability of compression (max number of useful worker threads) has been increased. Scalability when decompressing from/to regular files has been increased. The number of worker threads is now limited to the number of members in the input file when decompressing from a regular file. "configure" now accepts options with a separate argument. The targets "install-as-lzip" and "install-bin" have been added to the Makefile.

Moscrack 2.08b

Wed, 06/05/2013 - 01:56
Moscrack is a WPA cracker for use on clusters. It supports MOSIX, SSH, and RSH connectivity and works by reading a word list from STDIN or a file, breaking it into chunks, and passing those chunks off to separate processes that run in parallel. The parallel processes are then executed on different nodes in your cluster. All results are checked and recorded on your master node. Logging and error handling are taken care of. It is capable of running reliably for long periods of time, without the risk of losing data or having to restart. Moscrack uses aircrack-ng by default. Pyrit for WPA cracking and Dehasher for Unix password hashes are supported via plugins.

Release Notes: This version implements a new API which allows the CGI and commandline mosctop to work from remote machines. There are several small bugfixes, many of which were reported by users. A new USB Live image was released, as well.

uBeeDisk 2.3.0

Wed, 06/05/2013 - 00:07
uBeeDisk is a tool that copies disks and images from one to another. It was developed to archive Microbee disk images from floppy disks and to write them back to floppy, but other disk formats can be added. It is intended mainly for users of computer emulators. As the program makes use of the 'LibDsk' library there are many options for image types. The program provides some data recovery methods along with 'info' files for each disk image file created. An 'info' file contains information about the disk image, a status map of all sectors read from the disk, and an MD5 stamp of the associated disk image.

Release Notes: This release added Floppyio 'fioxx' and North Star Horizon 'nshs'disk macros to 'ubeedisk.ini.sample'. The Windows distribution now has all text files in CRLF format and with '.txt' extensions. Changes were made to reset_input_drive_and_settings() to bypass if it is not a PC floppy disk as the input type. This function was causing Remote time-out errors under Linux and possibly Win32. Error reporting and exit(EXIT_FAILURE) were also added at various points. Changes were made to close_files() to report any dsk_close() errors. Help in the ub-xsxx-makexxx.bat files was fixed. There were also various compiler warning fixes.

360-FAAR Firewall Analysis Audit and Repair 0.4.6

Tue, 06/04/2013 - 20:48
360-FAAR (Firewall Analysis Audit and Repair) is an offline, command line, Perl firewall policy manipulation tool to filter, compare to logs, merge, translate, and output firewall commands for new policies, in Checkpoint dbedit, Cisco ASA, or ScreenOS commands. It is all contained in one file. It can read policy and logs for: Checkpoint FW1 (in odumper.csv / logexport format), Netscreen ScreenOS (in get config / syslog format), and Cisco ASA (show run / syslog format). It uses both inclusive and exclusive CIDR and text filters, permitting you to split large policies into smaller ones for virutalization at the same time as removing unused connectivity. It supports policy to log association, object translation, rulebase reordering and simplification, rule moves, and duplicate matching automatically. It allows you to seamlessly move rules to where you need them. 'print' mode creates a spreadsheet for your audit needs with one command.

Release Notes: This release fixes netscreen group name translation bugs. Empty groups are not matched in build_rules subs. Comments are output in 'set name' statements in policy id mode for netscreen rulebases. Netscreen rule 'name' strings are added with rule descriptions, and net ranges are translated as ranges. Some default services have been updated with a few new services definitions. 'rr' mode 'nat' defaults have been added, the same as 'yes' defaults with CIDR filter NAT translations switched on.

quIRC 0.9.10

Tue, 06/04/2013 - 19:22
quIRC is a lightweight console-mode IRC client. It uses terminal escape sequences to provide a clean character-cell based interface, handling things like multiple channels and servers (using tabs), input line editing (with bash-like keystrokes), and backscroll.

Release Notes: This release adds the ability for private-messaging tabs to react to NICKs, and thus send subsequent messages to the new nick rather than the old one. It also displays the names of unhandled IRC numeric replies, rather than just vomiting the raw message to the buffer. The ERROR command (typically issued when a server disconnects you) is now properly handled, with the accompanying message displayed. This release also includes a significant amount of internal refactoring and code reorganisation, so should be considered *unstable*.
