What exactly are the AV products detecting in the JPEG exploits? Barry and I was talking about how impressed we were that the AV companies jumped on this one and detection was pretty fast. But is the detection so generic that a variant will bypass? Is the detection based on a original exploit that could be modified in a way that makes it "undetectable" right now?

This may be a good question for the list. -Barry _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it. Charter: http://lists.netsys.com/full-disclosure-charter.html
