Gadi,

I sort of agree with mic that the problem is poor programming.  My last
manager liked to pick up C text books at random and point out all the
vulnerabilities in the code examples that are being used to teach the
next generation of programmers (how to write vulnerabilities).

> This community is perfect for this job.

If the community is bored right now ;^) we are looking for community
help to build up our knowledge of secure coding rules and
recommendations for the C and C++ programming languages:

www.securecoding.cert.org

I'm also teaching a course at CMU in the spring on Secure Coding in C
and C++.  I'm hoping to take this material and incorporate it into the
course.  Once I get some experience teaching the material, I could help
turn it into a college text.  (I've written three books already, so I'm
a proven threat. 8^)

Thanks,
rCs
