The Apache Software Foundation Inc.'s Apache HTTP Server has earned what
many hope for and few achieve: an enviable security reputation.
This achievement is especially striking when contrasted with Microsoft
Corp.'s IIS (Internet Information Services) Web server (see story),
which has gained the reputation of having more holes than Swiss cheese.
A study of Apache security advisories dating back to Apache 1.0 shows
the server's last serious problem (one where remote attackers could run
arbitrary code on the server) was announced in January 1997.

Experts at the Kurchatov Institute in Moscow found the flaws in
Microsoft's SQL Server 6.5 in 1999 and have since switched to their own
system combined with work-arounds, according to Blair.
"By their calculations, an enormous amount of Russia's nuclear material
-- the equivalent of many thousands of nuclear bombs -- would disappear
from their accounting records if Russia were to use the flawed U.S.
software program for 10 years".
Blair writes that a later version of software sent to the Russians --
Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 -- "not only contained the same bug (though
much less virulent) but also had a critical security flaw that would
allow easy access to the sensitive nuclear database by hackers or
unauthorized personnel."



In incheiere, va oferim spre studiu problema secolului:

Programe Microsoft + echipament nuclear rusesc = ?

Cei care vor gasi solutia corecta vor primi ca premiu bilete pentru
rindurile din fata la Apocalips, de la ciuperca atomica trei scaune spre
dreapta.
