Hello, its Ryan. We've noticed a misconception about IPv6 that is popular on the internet: that IPv6 addresses are hard to ping sweep because there are so many possible addresses. Ping sweeping can lead to port scanning, so this misconception is viewed as a security feature. In this post, I'll prove that, while it won't work across the internet, ping sweeping on the local network is easier in IPv6 than in IPv4.

Hi, it's Will. Anybody who has been keeping an eye on the US-CERT Vulnerability Notes has probably noticed that I've published a lot of ActiveX vulnerabilities. So it should be no surprise to learn that we have been testing ActiveX controls and discovering vulnerabilities in the process.
