Here is a little status report, for those who wonder where I went off to. I have worked at Secunia for a year and two months so far, and I have done tasks that hopefully were helpful to my beloved open source community:

  • wrote hundreds of security advisories (many of them for open-source applications)
  • performed my own security research and found vulnerabilities in evolution, sylpheed/sylpheed-claws/claws mail, vim and others

Recently I have visited The 24th Chaos Communication Congress (24C3) in Berlin, I have seen other things in Berlin for a few days, I have read non-fiction books about astronomy and the history of ideas, and listened to popular music performed by Friday Bridge and Evert Taube (which is nice to indulge in, since those fields of endeavour basically are my interests with some room for variation). After returning from Berlin, I have a really horrible cold (which is not one of my bigger interests).

$NEWJOB is good but takes most of my energy, some edits for Wikitravel though
Malmö is nice because it's different from Stockholm or Linköping
Hesse's "Steppenwolf" seems like a good and true novel so far

osiris format string bugs ( s + f + nvd ) remote vulnerabilities in security-improving server, popular enough to have half a book written about it
old freshclam bug updated in Mac OS X + there is a US-CERT Vulnerability Note about it
Browser Fun (by HD Moore), Microsoft Excel fun (by lots of people) -- isn't it great how the security of really critical programs used by many millions of people world-wide daily suck horribly?
gimme gimme gimme the style police

Tokyo highlights: (I'm not going to write any descriptions, because I'm really not a travel writer, but these places and activities are heartily recommended)
Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office and nearby buildings - Fuji Television Japan Broadcast Center observatory (great architecture) - eating very fresh sushi in a restaurant next to Tsukiji Central Fish Market - Golden Gai - Ueno-koen with its various museums and a zoo - a live show in Roppongi with Piana and other artists (found here) - a live show in Shibuya with YMCK and other bands (found there as well) - Senso-ji and Asakusa-jinja - Love Hotel Hill - Takeshita st. and Harajuku st. - Design Festa - Roppongi Hills - Shibuya - Yoyogi-koen - National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation - Imperial Palace East Garden - Yasukuni-jinja - Sony Building - Piss Alley - Akihabara (somewhat overrated) - and much more.
