Hi,

Blaufish @ wordpress.com

I recently started spending some of my free time geocaching, you can see my stats at as user blaufish. I also do a lot of biking and walking.

I am a security professional. Typical job tasks include
 * code review
 * code fixes
 * advice to software developers
 * network/security advice to customers
 * meetings, office politics, etc

Started as a Wiki volunteer December 12th, after noticing that Wikipedia did not cover Cross Zone Scripting vulnerabilities. My major motivation for creating wiki articles is to enable "the avarage Joe" to find information about Computer security. Security people usually stays to much to their own forums, and then wonder why other people don't know security. I think it should be the other way around - if normal people wants to know about cookies, they should also find information about security related issues with it. So, by putting information where YOU can find it, you are able to improve security - and know some of what your enemies already know.

Major contributions:
 * Cross Zone Scripting (started article)
 * Directory traversal
 * Session fixation (started article)
 * Session poisoning (started article)
 * Cross Site Cooking (started article)
 * Code injection
 * Secure input and output handling (started article)

Minor contributions: Cross site scripting, Setuid, HTTP Cookie, Browser exploit, Privilege escalation, Defensive programming
