Microsoft releases installable code to protect against recently discovered ASP.NET Vulnerability

This evening a download was added to the ASP.NET Security Vulnerability information page. It sounds like there is more to come but this is a start.

Note  This page was updated October 7, 2004, to include information about a newly released mitigation option, an HTTP module installer. This module protects all ASP.NET applications on a Web server against canonicalization problems that are currently known to Microsoft as of the publication date. We will continue to update this page as additional guidance and resources become available.

Rocky Lhotka at Vermont.NET on Monday (10/11)

Boy it seems like Michele was just here! And now we have Rocky Lhotka coming to Vermont.NET in a few days (Monday 10/11 to be specific). Two INETA speakers in a row – lucky us. ANd many more all around us as well. Juval Lowy at Beantown .net, Jeff Prosise was just at Boston .NET. Later this month Billy Hollis will be at the SQL Server group in Montreal.

Rocky is going to talk to us Vermont geeks about a topic near and dear to his heart, “Creation of Distributed Object Oriented Applications in .NET”. We are also getting a bunch of his books from APress to give away at the meeting.

Rocky will arrive in Burlington a little before noon which will give us time for a nice drive around Vermont to do some leaf peeping. Apparently yesterday was official “Peak Day” but since the leaves change at different times depending on where you are in the state, it will certainly still be easy to find some glorious color on Monday. (and maybe even some maple syrup 🙂 ).
