Black Galactic Seas will continue soon...

The journey will continue. And not because my Java Teacher handed me the "Parallel Worlds" by Michio Kaku but because suddenly I was reading stuff which ran thru my mind since I was a little kid. My instructor is a rather unique guy during my SCJP course(SL-275) we talked all the time about the 11th dimension, String Theory, The fate of the universe,Worm holes, Portals, Levitation and what not.

He's going to be writing a book on his own ideas pretty soon, and hearing him I suddenly feel the need to get back to my version of the "Worlds of Worlds"(No, the title will be different of course :)), which I started way back in 97.

I will also write a bit of my own "My Poor Brain On Java" series, just to inspire myself to think like a good OO nerd.

Security: VMware Workstation 6 vulnerability

vulnerable software: VMware Workstation 6.0 for Windows, possible some other VMware products as well type of vulnerability: DoS, potential privilege escalation I found a vulnerability in VMware Workstation 6.0 which allows an unprivileged user in the host OS to crash the system and potentially run arbitrary code with kernel privileges. The issue is in the vmstor-60 driver, which is supposed to mount VMware images within the host OS. When sending the IOCTL code FsSetVoleInformation with subcode FsSetFileInformation with a large buffer and underreporting its size to at max 1024 bytes, it will underrun and potentially execute arbitrary code.

OS Virtualization comparison: Parallels' Virtuozzo vs the rest

Virtuozzo's main differentiators versus hypervisors center on overhead, virtualization flexibility, administration and cost. Virtuozzo requires significantly less overhead than hypervisor solutions, generally in the range of 1% to 5% compared with 7% to 25% for most hypervisors, leaving more of the system available to run user workloads. Customers can also virtualize a wider range of applications using Virtuozzo, including transactional databases, which often suffer from performance problems when used with hypervisors. On the administration side, customers need to manage, maintain and secure just a single OS instance, while the hypervisor model requires customers to manage many OS instances. Of course, the hypervisor vendors have worked hard to automate much of this process, but it still requires more effort to manage and maintain multiple operating systems than a single instance. Finally, OS virtualization with Virtuozzo has a lower list price than the leading hypervisor for comme...
