n3td3v, Dino's beyond well respected in the security community. Also, you won't know if it is an overhyped bug until Black Hat, and you might have to reverse your opinion and statements after the details are released. Although I will say this, it could still qualify as the most overhyped bug, even if it also wins the most awesome bug, because the hype on this has been amazingly huge.
Finally n3td3v, I've agreed with some of your posts, but I don't understand why you are against people making money in the security industry. I mean, what's wrong with making money? Gotta pay the bills somehow, better then being a janitor. -Nate On Fri, Jul 11, 2008 at 4:33 PM, n3td3v <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Fri, Jul 11, 2008 at 9:22 PM, Sandy Vagina <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> n3td3v wrote: >>> Please nominate Mr.DNS aka Dan Kaminsky for Most Overhyped Bug on the >>> Pwnie Awards 2008. >> >> Perhaps if you bothered to read anywhere close to as much as you >> write, you would have seen that Dino, one of the judges, specifically >> disqualified this bug from the Pwnies for being too awesome: >> >> http://blog.trailofbits.com/2008/07/09/dan-kaminsky-disqualified-from-most-overhyped-bug-pwnie/ > > Well quite clearly Dino is a faggot then. > > I want Dino whoever he is to come on Full-Disclosure and explain > what's awesome about it? > > Its an old bug being used to market a security conference called > Blackhat and thats all there is to it. > > Its definitely an overhyped bug!!! > > The bad guys have been able to poison the DNS cache for years!!!
