OWASP's domains ending with .org and .com are vulnerable to DNS Zone Transfer... Is it because, they preach only web security? That they never bothered to touch the network side of things ?
Besides being a security - preacher type website, they must have done a basic pen-test routine of their website before hosting... Network FAIL :D

OWASP must be glad that we didn't use 31337 stuff like Revhosts ;))
You guys must learn from ISECOM - Check this out
bt ~ # dig isecom.org axfr @ns222.pair.com
; <<>> DiG 9.3.2-P1 <<>> isecom.org axfr @ns222.pair.com
; (1 server found)

; Transfer failed.
That should be the type of output generally when you poke a website preaching security...
If you are bored and clarifying a few things with a website like OWASP next time, try running a few tools from the command line, gives you lols :))

MIT Press - XSS - Happy new year to one and all !
######################################
# Website: www.mit.edu
# Date: 08.01.10
# Bug: Cross Site Scripting (XSS)
#####################################
Search box vulnerable to XSS... after September, got really bored of XSS/SQL/RFI... that's why I took a break... but still, couldn't resist taking a shot at MIT Press ;)
So here goes the first post, for the new year - 2010
Vuln URL: hxxp://mitpress.mit.edu/catalog/search/default.asp

Click here for XSS demo
Solution: Try and validate input ... it's not good practice to let XSS through, for I recently investigated cases where XSS was used to install malicious code on to client systems for further access.
Cheers,
Kish :)

Advisory Updates: Q2 2009, and a bit more...
Even though a spectacular hack was pulled off on Imageshack, they've not fixed their bug yet.
The lazy developers behind the Indian Premier League (oh reely??) have not fixed their XSS and SQLi bugs either... In 2009 if you want to see a demo, of a site allowing "delete method" in databases please visit them :))
ZDNet that writes the special 0-day column, apart from regular security ramblings is "yet" to fix their bug, and Dancho danchev, one of the authors from their team is still replying to mail...
Adobe atleast fixed their bug even though it was late, and I applaud their security team / devs for their store.
Electronic arts and blogarama haven't fixed their bugs just like the others, no I am not surprised
Probably, I'll write the next / final advisory update for this year in 3 to 4 months from now... Keep your eyes open !
Cheers :)

Hakin9 - Issue (03/2009) - Review
Thanks to the Hakin9 Team for sending me a copy for review. This issue of Hakin9 comes with a new set of articles on various topics such as Bruteforce, Malware analysis, and Examining malicious PDF documents.
Unless you're just starting off or don't know about bruteforce you can skip the introduction to the article, but the relevance of information is really good in terms of description of various types of attacks. The article talks about the latest technique called GPU cracking.
There's also another interesting article detailing the reverse engineering of digital certificate on Windows. Web security enthusiasts are not left out, with an article covering burp proxy's intruder with examples.
For the system administrators there's some constructive information in the article on defeating AVs. There's additionally the CD that comes along with the magazine features Ad-aware anniversary edition (free) along with a few demo-games such as Portsign, which is a hacker game similar to Uplink from Introversion software.
Apart from these there's the usual book review on "IPv6 Security" from Cisco Press, a section on emerging threats, a few ads spread out through the magazine, and a good interview from Nicholas Percoco, the head of Spiderlabs, Trustwave's research team.
