Many script languages have an import function that allows to import and execute code that is stored in another file. Microsoft's vbscript however is lacking such functionality. This page shows how it can be accomplished to import and execute vbscript code that is stored in another file.

Assume that you have the following file with some functions that you have defined:

Not everyone is vulnerable to the potential attack vector that researchers from INRIA, a French research institute, and Microsoft disclosed recently. In order to be vulnerable, the computer or server must support a class of deliberately weak export cipher suites. Support for these weak algorithms has remained in many implementations, however they are typically disabled by default. Nevertheless, the researchers discovered that several implementations incorrectly allow the message sequence of export ciphersuites to be used even if a non-export ciphersuite was nogotiated.

Using AutoIt's DllCall function might be confusing at first. The biggest issue I encountered was on how to "translate" the C++ variable types to AutoIt variable types. In this article, we give some example of how some standard Microsoft DLL calls can be translated into AutoIt DLL calls. We give a brief explation of each function and then first show the function definition in C++ and then show how you can call the function from within AutoIt.

If you are building a secure computer, then the best approach is to never connect it to the internet. If the operating system on this computer is Windows, then you will have to activate it before you will be able to use it. This article explains how you can activate it by phone.

Researchers from the Google Security Team have published findings about a vulnerability in SSL 3.0. CVE-­2014­-3566 has been allocated for this protocol vulnerability. It is possible to use nmap to scan for the presence of this vulnerability by doing a scan on the supported SSL/TLS protocols. This post shows how to scan for the POODLE weakness using nmap.
