New Year Security Issue

Guys,
With the new year a lot of internet sites are instituting renewed security logins. Has any one else found that the new security requirements are not compatible with Safari?

I understand that. I'm sorry if I didn't explain that. It would work that way if the thief turns on Airplane mode as well. I was just demonstrating another alternative to show what the OP said was not the only method to get by.
To the OP, while I can see your logic, one of the major complaints about settings has been the need to "drill down" further for many settings, including Airplane Mode. So, in this day and age, we still cannot please everyone. But as Alibaba2k2 points out, if the devices is stolen and reported and set as lost, a thief cannot restore the phone without knowing the original owner's Apple ID password.

New User -- Security Issues

Hi folks,
... I just Installed Oracle 8i server enterprise version; configured another PC to access the server and all seem to work.
I created a database with a net name service testdb and I successfully log on as follows:
user : system
Password : manager
Host String : Testdb
I thenI created two users called User1 and User2 from the command line.
I am SQL Plus, and I need to execute commands to achieve the following:
i. Both users, User1 and User 2 should be able to create their own table, delete their own tables, insert or update, etc.
ii. User1 wants to assign rights to User2 so that User2 can insert, update and select from a table Tab1 created by
User1 but User1 should not be able to delete tables created by User2.
What I did, and Questions that I came up with? -- I will appreciate your help:
I logged on as system and executed:
SQL>grant connect to public;
but when User1 logged on to Testdb and tried to create a table, he got '...no privilege to tablespace "system"'
1. ??? Any command for a user1 to see tablespaces available to him?
2. ??? Is there a command to assign "tablespace" to each each user as an admin? And as a user to assign to a friend?
Later loggeg on as system, I gave User1:
SQL>grant dba to public;
Now User1 now create table tab1 when he logged on with Host string: Testdb.
With user1 connected, he executed:
SQL> grant select, update, insert on User1.tab1 to User2;
3. ??? User1 did not want User2 to be able to "drop" (delete) tab1 but user2 can -- User one only wanted User2 to be
able to insert, select, update but not delete the table. How do we prevent that?
4. ??? As I log on the same machine sometimes as User1 and as User2, sometimes I may not be sure of "whoami"
-- Does Oracle has the who am I command to show the current user?
5 ??? Also is there a command to see the current user's rights: privileges and roles?
Logged on as system again, I run the demobld.sql to be able to use the demo files.
but when User1 logs on, the demo tables were not available to him.
User1 then logged on an run demobld.sql and now he can use the demo tables
Later when logged on as User2, the demo files were not available and User2 had to run demobld.sql again to be
able to use them.
I then said to myself, if I could log on as user PUBLIC, then may be, I could run the demobld.sql and the demobld.sql
could be available to all, but then, can one logon with the user PUBLIC? What is the password for user PUBLIC?
6. ???The point is, is there any way to make all employees have a copy of their own(their modifications should not be
seen by others) demo tables without repeating the process as above for each person.???
Thanks.

1. ??? Any command for a user1 to see tablespaces available to >him? you can run this select statement to find outwhat tablespaces are available for you:
SELECT * FROM USER_TABLESPACES
when u create a user he shld be assigned to a tablespace named USERS and a temporary tablespace named TEMP
your create statement shld be :
CREATE USER USERNAME IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP;
in order for you to create a table u shld have a disk quota on that tablespace:
CREATE USER USERNAME IDENTIFIED BY PASSWORD
DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP QUOTA 5M ON USERS;
and should been granted the create table system privilege.
GRANT CREATE TABLE
TO USERNAME;
this shld solve ur problem 1.
3. ??? User1 did not want User2 to be able to "drop" (delete) >tab1 but user2 can -- User one only wanted User2 to be
able to insert, select, update but not delete the table. How do >we prevent that? a user cannot delete a record/s if he is granted :
GRANT INSERT, SELECT, UPDATE
ON TAB1
TO USER2
only, but look at your problem 2 you granted DBA to all users (PUBLIC) meaning your giving them everything. the reason why he can do anything in the db even dropping u as a user.
4. ??? As I log on the same machine sometimes as User1 and as >User2, sometimes I may not be sure of "whoami"
-- Does Oracle has the who am I command to show the current >user? u can type :
SQL> SHOW USER
at the prompt.
5 ??? Also is there a command to see the current user's rights: >privileges and roles? for OBJECT rights and privileges u can query the data dict views :
TABLE_PRIVILEGES
COLUMN_PRIVILEGES
for SYSTEM rights and privileges u can query the data dict views :
SELECT * FROM USER_SYS_PRIVS
SELECT * FROM USER_ROLE_PRIVS
I then said to myself, if I could log on as user PUBLIC, then >may be, I could run the demobld.sql and the demobld.sql
could be available to all, but then, can one logon with the >user PUBLIC? What is the password for user PUBLIC? you cant log-on as public, USER1 and USER2 are members of the public, if u wanted everyone to use one copy of the demo build u can just simply create a PUBLIC SYNONYM of those tables in the script file. u can just say:
CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM SYNONYM _NAME
6. ???The point is, is there any way to make all employees have >a copy of their own(their modifications should not be
seen by others) demo tables without repeating the process as >above for each person.??? if thats ur plan u can install the demobild.sql to all the schema of ur users that is they take their own copy of the tables.
wish i was able to satisfy ur queries.

Hi Heidig,
Welcome to the discussions and the AppleWorks Forum.
It's unlikely that this is a "New Year's" issue. The most probable cause is a corrupted preferences file.
Check Peggy's post here:

For future reference: Using the search feature can lead to a quick answer to many problems. For this one, a search, restricted to the AppleWorks forum, using "has been deleted" (without the quotes) brought up four posts on this topic, including a reference by Peggy to her User Contributed Tip, on the first page of results.

My account was deleted for security issues. I made a new account, but I can't syncronise my apps with this new account. I bought a new Iphone and would like to transfer the apps ans music on this new one. Can somebody help me?

Why would you make a new account? This will likely cause many problems. Just get you old account enabled.
Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" alert appears
Frequently Asked Questions About Apple ID
Everything you purchased with the old account will always be tied to that account. You will have to authorize the computer for that account and you will have to update the apps from that account.

Security Issue in Planning. Unable to write to particular Year member

Hello Everyone,
I am currently facing a strange security issue in our PRD environment. I am unable to lock and send any data or punch the data in directly through a dataform for a particular Year, Scenario and Version combination. I have all the write access set up on these dimensions directly from planning interface and configured myself as Admin through Shared services.
Dimensions are as follows:
Year
-FY11
-FY12
-FY13
Scenario
-Forecast
Version
-Working
I can key in the data for FY11+Forecast+Working BUT all the cells in the dataform appear to be green for below combination:
FY12+Forecast+Working and FY13+Forecast+Working
I am not sure whats happening here as I have right security setup and Forecast is setup correctly too, from FY11 to FY13 for all the months(Jan:Dec).
Please Help
Thanks

Hi John,
Yes the months are setup correctly. I resolved the issue. We had a replicated partition connected to it, which pushes data to my application for FY12 and FY13. The partition needed to be dropped. Now I can see the cells in yellow.
Thanks

Will there be a update for the iPad 1 that will take care security issues like 7.0.6 did for newer iPads

Can someone answer my question?

The iPad 1 is not afected by the security issue. Hence no update is necessarry. The code that was at the root of the problem was not added to safari until iOS 6. It is not present in iOS 5 which is as high as an original iPad can go.

Unable to assign all security roles to a user with a new custom security role

Dear All,
Happy New Year.!
I have a query regarding the assignment of Security Roles to new users in CRM. Normally we assign the security roles to new users via an Admin user who has 'System Administrator' security role assigned to him/her. This works perfectly fine, and we can assign
any desired security role to the new user.
However, in our case, we need to delegate the user creation rights to some of the client partners. We do not want to give them access to all the Administration functions; hence we created a new Security Role, lets say 'Support User Role'. We have provided
'Create', 'Append', 'Append To', and 'Assign' rights on 'User' entity for this new security role. With this security role, we are able to create new users now, but we are only able to assign 'Agent' security role, not any other security roles.
For example, if user 'x' has Security Role defined as 'Support User Role'. If 'x' tries to add a new user 'y', then 'x' is only able to assign 'Agent' security role to 'y', but not any other security role. As per business requirement, 'x' should be able
to assign some other security roles, including 'Support User Role', to new user 'y'.
I believe that there is something missing in Security Role configuration, which is causing the above problem. We compared both 'Support User Role' and 'System Administrator' security roles, but not able to figure out which minimum rights we can provide to
'Support User Role' so that users with this security role can only add new users (with any security role), and that they are not having access on any other Administration features as well.
Appreciate any help that you can provide on the above issue.
Thanks in anticipation.

Hi,
Can you check if you have organization level Read access for Securitity Role and Organization level Assign access for Security role.
Refer:-

Flash 8 security issue

I'm using Flash 8 and in my code i use the XMLSocket.connect
command. When i try to connect to another computer in my LAN i get
a security warning that says that flash stopped an unsafe
operation. When i select "Settings" and add the swf path to the
trusted locations everything works well.
My question is, what if i'm not connected to the internet?
How can i pass this security warning without an intenet connection
to get to the URL in which i add trusted locations?

Unfortunately, that doesn't help me pin it down much. It sounds like we tightened restrictions on a behavior that was previously allowed, which caused them to need to update their content. The web is a dynamic place, and Flash has an obligation to be a good citizen in the larger ecosystem. As new web standards evolve and emerge, it's important that Flash Player is aligned with them to the extent possible. In the same vein, we work closely with partners in industry, academia and government to identify and resolve security issues based on the latest research and intelligence.
While we take backwards compatibility seriously, the security landscape looks very different than it did 5-10 years ago. The security of both end-users and the network is of paramount importance. With the quantity and age of existing Flash content (not all of which is generated by Adobe software), it's incredibly difficult to anticipate whether or not content will break when we change something, particularly if it's esoteric. We operate a public beta program and encourage content providers to participate in order to prevent unexpected outages as the result of changes to Flash Player. The beta can be found at http://www.adobe.com/go/beta/.
If your cable provider needs assistance in resolving the issue, their engineers are more than welcome to reach out to me directly.

Flash Player Security issue

All,
Please note that I've just had a chat discussion with Adobe support because of a security issue in the most recent update of Flash that caused services from several providers to become inaccessible. Does anyone have any information regarding this issue?

Mozilla releases Firefox 39, patches 22 security issues

Mozilla released Firefox 39, a new version that, in addition to patching 22 security issues, now checks downloads for malware on OSX and Linux.According to Myce, Mozilla marked 13 of the 22 security patches as critical, which means "an attacker can fully take over the computer of a user with a vulnerable Firefox version." Mozilla also patched the security vulnerabilityLogjam, which lets an attacker see ormodify a user's data by weakening the TLS encryption.Other patches and new features in Firefox 39 include:A patch for Mac users solved the problem where crash reports would sometimes contain personal information, such as a user's keystrokes. Problems with "the built-in PDF reader of Firefox has also been resolved," according to Myce. In a bid to offer better security protection against malware and adware, Mozilla addedGoogle's Safe...

If you can't switch to a proper security suite and you absolutely need all the browser integration bells and whistles, then you can downgrade to the ESR version of Firefox. It's a special version intented for organizations. It gets security patches regularly, but it only changes major versions once per year.
* http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/all.html
New major versions of Firefox have been released every 6 weeks since [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/4.0/releasenotes/ March 22nd, 2011].
* https://blog.mozilla.org/futurereleases/2011/07/19/every-six-weeks/
Every new major version contains security fixes. By sticking with an old version like 20.0.1, you're putting your system at risk.

Chrome's release model is similar.

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Chrome#Release_history
Opera will be updated every 2 weeks.
* http://my.opera.com/desktopteam/blog/2013/07/02/opera-15
Internet Explorer for Windows XP is 2 major versions behind and will never be updated. In theory, it's supported with security patches for as long as Windows XP is supported, but not so much in practice.

Earlier this morning @Kafeine alerted us about a new Java zeroday being exploited in the wild. With the files we were able to obtain we reproduced the exploit in a fully patched new installation of Java.

New Year, New Challenge

Happy New Year Y'All.
With a new year comes a new challenge.
Parts list:
1 Computer with Windows 7 pro
2 Monitors
2 Keyboards
2 Mice
2 Users
Goal:
Each user to use some random Wondows program independantly with the added
ability to transfer control of at leasst one of the programs to the other
user.
One of my clients brought this to me last week. I know there has been talk
about doing this kind of thing over the years. Are we any closer to being
able to being able to have 2 users work in 2 different programs on the same
computer independantly?

IPhone 5 Apps won't open after New Years Eve

I got a new iPhone 5 for Christmas. Everything was working fine up until New Year's Eve. On January 1st non of my Apps will open. I've deleted them manually from the phone and reinstalled them from the App Store, powered phone off, put phone in airplane mode and non of my purchased Apps will open. Only Apps that work are those that came pre-installed. I'm thinking I might just go back to using my 3GS never had an issue.

Panic over!!! I just hit one of the apps and it opened....not sure what is going on but all looks good now. Phew what a relief.
