Archive for the ‘Charlie Miller’ tag

CanSecWest is in it’s 12th year now. It started with the small, highly technical computer security conference in Vancouver and has since expanded to include a PacSec in Asia and EUSecWest in Europe, a 3 day dojo of training preceeding the conference, and for the last 4 years an event which has eclipsed the con itself – pwn2own.
This year the talks were mostly focused on applications and bug hunting as might be expected along side the pwn2own competition. As for pwn2own itself, some prizes were won and some not. Charlie Miller took away an iPhone 4 this year via a mobile Safari exploit. Stephen Fewer won a laptop by combining three different exploits to pwn IE8 on Windows 7-SP1. The VUPEN team walked off with an iBook for popping OS X through Safari. And Vincenzo Iozzo from Zynamics won big with the RIM’s BlackBerry Torch 9800. Of course there ARE some odd rules and one of the favorites to take out some of the prizes left “standing” didn’t show. It’s a jungle out there for Apple users but that shouldn’t leave Android, Chrome or Windows Phone 7 feeling invulnerable. YOUR bugs will live a little longer.
HNN was there in Vancouver, BC for the action. We hope you enjoy the sights and sounds of CanSecWest, 2011.
