The Little Dutch Moose specifications
What's new in version 10.3 2A82
The new release of Little Dutch Moose includes a new configuration panel that allows you to define request header traps in order to trap and block the new as yet unnamed Apache worm.
- Re-labeled "Attack Signatures" configuration panel to "Request Attack Signatures".
- Added "Request Header Signatures" panel to configuration. This panel allows you to enter tags for requests headers and data that you which to disallow. When the systems preferences pane is run the first time it will add a know set of tags. You should stop and stop Apache after opening the Preferences the first time after using our sw update. If you using the installer wizard to update this will be done for you.
- Added option to the signatures panel to allow rejection of all chunked requests. Check it to trap all chunked requests. Make sure you have used Apple SW Update to update your Apache server as well. This option is on the new "Request Header Signatures" panel. This option is unecessary if the "Request Header Signatures" list contains the entry "Transfer-Encoding:chunked".
- Reset the evaluation version allowing an extension of the trial period. This is so that non-customers can utilize the Apache worm trap.
- Added special handling to help with attacks that try and maintain a connection to the server even if the attack fails. These eventually become denial, of service attacks if the session is not released.
- A word about our software update system. Although the WunderMoosen Software Update system (Moose Update) looks similar to the system used by Apple our system has always used digital signatures on the updates which are not easily spoofed. (This is something that Apple has only recently implemented.) Even if someone were to spoof our update server address and trick you into downloading a fake update the update would not be installed and it would be deleted as soon as downloaded due to an incorrect digital signature. When we designed this system, security was our primary concern, so we used a custom proprietary digital signature which is based on RSA technology. Only we possess the utilities to compute our updates signatures.
