Friday, March 21st 2003 12:51
Security
Software Development :: Libraries
About: crconack provides two libraries, a "clean" one and one for
obstinate programs intended to be used with LD_PRELOAD to override the
behaviour of libc's connect() and accept() to transparently perform a
challenge-response handshake where client and server have to authenticate
each other before the connection is passed on to the application. (Two
independent secrets are needed which are taken from a file specified in an
ENV variable.) This does not help against TCP injection attacks, but is
well suited to cover otherwise totally unprotected potentially exploitable
servers.

[019] - glrParser 1.3
by Ondrej Macek (http://freshmeat.net/users/xmacek/)
Friday, March 21st 2003 09:48
Text Processing :: Linguistic
About: The glrParser template library is a programmer's tool for creation
of syntactical analysers which works with the GLR(0) algorithm. The
library can handle wide ambiguous grammars containing the epsilon-rules.
GLR is generalization of the LR algorithm (published by Marasu Tomita)
which can handle ambiguous grammars. The library implements the GLR(0)
algorithm but defines neither the method of reading input nor the actions
to make when making reductions. The format of the grammar files is defined
but it is easy to make the parser to handle different ones without
modifiyng the library itself.
Changes: The parser did not make some reductions in some cases when it
used grammar containing the epsilon rules. Correcting this error has lead
to quite a lots of changes in the algorithm which implements reductions.

functionality has also been implemented.
Changes: This release fixes restoring lyrics, some error cases, CDDB
submit, CDDB search, report dialog size, drag and drop for Qt3.1, and many
other bugs. CDDB discid is now computed more accurately, and CDDB search
now calculates track lengths. There has been a change in category
implementation, removal of unneeded headers, and a code cleanup which
resulted in a reduction in binary size.

About: Kooka, part of the kdegraphics package, is a raster image scan
program which supports OCR. It is based on the scanner access library
SANE. It supports scanning in different modes and resolutions, preview,
scan area selection, and an image save assistant which features a gallery

support. OCR is supported through GOCR, an open source project. Kooka uses
the libkscan, which offers scanner support to all KDE applications.
Changes: Kooka has received a completely redesigned interface for OCR
embedding to make it easier to embed additional OCR engines. The user
interface has been redesigned and improved. Spellchecking of the OCR
result text has been added. Beside the Open Source OCR tool gocr, Kooka
now supports the KADMOS OCR/ICR toolbox for Linux.

by Eric Kow (http://freshmeat.net/users/kowey/)
Friday, March 21st 2003 22:59
About: kowey-generic is a set of templates for small programming projects
in single languages. The goal is to provide a simple way to make highly
portable and nicely distributable software that "just works". These
templates allow you produce packages that the user simply downloads and
runs with no mess, fuss, or CLASSPATH nonsense (under Java). These
templates also help Java developers to adopt better coding habits, as the
default build file auto-generates unit test skeletons using JUnitDoclet.
Changes: This release explicitly adds an 'other' category for projects
other than Java and LaTeX. It also traps Ctrl-C so that it doesn't quit
mysteriously in Windows.

Internet :: WWW/HTTP :: HTTP Servers
About: mod_ssl provides provides strong cryptography for the Apache 1.3
webserver via the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer
Security (TLS v1). It is based on the SSL/TLS toolkit OpenSSL and supports
all SSL/TLS related functionality, including RSA and DSA/DH cipher
support, X.509 CRL checking, etc. Additionally it provides special Apache
related facilities like DBM and shared memory based inter-process SSL
session caching. per-URL SSL session renegotiations, DSO support, etc.
Changes: Logic in the destruction of a temporary certificate structure has
been fixed, and in this way a crash due to freeing a NULL object has been
fixed. One newly introduced X509_free() call in the context of
SSL_get_certificate() has been removed, because this function does not
increment a reference count. The hash-table based shared memory session
cache (shmht) implementation has been fixed by making sure that the
underlying hash table library does not crash if memory cannot be
allocated.

Database
Database :: Database Engines/Servers
Software Development :: Libraries :: PHP Classes
About: With the PHP Text File Interface (Txt-Db-API) you can access normal
text files like an SQL Database. You don't need any special database
software on the Web server, yet you can still use SQL calls. You can use
the API to create, query, change, or delete SQL tables, and you don't have
to bother with the text files themselves; almost everthing can be done
with the supported API calls. The Txt-Db-API is object-oriented and very
simple to use.
Changes: The latest alpha seems to work fine, so the API has beta status
now. Please note that this should be the most stable version of the API at
the moment. The old versions without "-Beta" (like "0.1.1") aren't more
stable. Windows newlines are supported now. Please note that the
txt-db-api still only writes Unix newlines, but tables which contain
Windows newlines are also read correctly now.

Multimedia :: Sound/Audio
About: PlayList Generator FX is perl-CGI script that generates a jukebox
type HTML playlist from media files, for listening them over the Internet.
You don't need to worry about updating links in a Web page, if you add,
delete, or rename some files. Users get always an up-to-date list of
available files. Supported players and formats are: Windows Media Player
(wma, asf), WinAmp (mp3), and RealPlayer (ra, rm).
Changes: The script now creates temporary playlist files on the server;
this should fix most problems with newer player versions. This release
adds "save" (some people have asked for this feature; by default, it's
off), "sort" (the sorting options are ascending, descending, and random),
and "Change case" (some people didn't like the forced "Capitalize"
feature). The URLs in playlists have been improved. They are now "URL
encoded"; this should fix problems with "weird" characters in filenames.

Changes: In this version, the DRWS intrinsic was added to plot statistical
datas and two styles are now associated (SCATTER in 2D and 3D, and
HISTOGRAM that only works in 2D even if 3-columns datas are accepted, the
third columns give the box width). recherche_type() and
recherche_instruction_suivante() were fixed and rewritten to be faster. A
minor bug was fixed in appel_gnuplot() because a segfault occurred when no
graphic was available. ncurses and GSL have been patched to be built by

About: samhain is a daemon that can check file integrity, search the file
tree for SUID files, and detect kernel module rootkits (Linux only). It
can be used either standalone or as a client/server system for centralized
monitoring, with strong (192-bit AES) encryption for client/server
connections and the option to store databases and configuration files on
the server. For tamper resistance, it supports signed
database/configuration files and signed reports/audit logs. It has been
tested on Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, and Unixware.
Changes: The kernel integrity check on Linux has been upgraded for recent
kernels, the configure script has been modified to detect incorrect
options, and some contributed administrative scripts have been included.
It is now possible to write a version string into the file signature
database. An inconsistency in the manual has been fixed, and two HOWTOs
