Honeynet Project Forensic Challenge 2010/2 - browsers under attack

The Honeynet Project has revived an successful program from the past: The=
 Honeynet Project Forensic Challenge 2010. The purpose of the Forensic Ch=
allenges is to take learning one step farther. Instead of having the Hone=
ynet Project analyze attacks and share their findings, Forensic Challenge=
s give the security community the opportunity to do so. In the end, indiv=
iduals and organizations not only learn about threats, but also learn how=
 to analyze them. Even better, individuals can access the write-ups from =
other individuals, and learn about new tools and techniques for analyzing=
 attacks. Best of all, the attacks of the Forensic Challenge are attacks =
encountered in the wild, real hacks, provided by our members.

It has been several years since we provided Forensic Challenges and with =
the Forensic Challenge 2010, we will provide desperately needed upgrades.=
 Currently, we are running our second challenge provided by Nicolas Colle=
ry from the Singapore Chapter and Guillaume Arcas from the French Chapter=
. It deals with client-side attacks and is titled browsers under attack. =
(accessible at https://www.honeynet.org/challenges/2010_2_browsers_under_=
attack)

The deadline for submissions is Monday, Match 8th 2010 and results (inclu=
ding a sample solution) will be posted on Monday, March 22nd 2010. The to=
p 3 submissions will be awarded with prizes.
