Android Vulnerability: Install App Without User Explicit Consent Mar 10 2014 05:50PM
Daniel Divricean (divricean gmail com)
This vulnerability allows an app to install any number of apps with
any type of permissions without user's explicit consent. It is based
on two things:
1. You can install an app from Google Play using just the browser,
even from PC.
2. An app can embed a browser and automatically login into your
Google account without any notification, using a few permissions.
One can build an Android app, let's call it Trojan, that requires
these permissions:
android.permission.INTERNET - Allows applications to open network sockets.
android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS - Allows access to the list of
accounts in the Accounts Service.
android.permission.USE_CREDENTIALS - Allows an application to
request authtokens from the AccountManager.
These are the steps to reproduce it:
1. Trojan app contains a WebView that will automatically login into
user's Google account by requesting authtokens from the Account
Manager, user will not be notified nor have any way to stop this.
2. The WebView will load the Google Play web site and inject
JavaScript code on page load.
3. The JavaScript code will make a request to get the device
information and CSRF tokens, it will get information about all devices
registered with that account. Remember the browser is logged in with
user's Google account.
4. Using this information it can issue a request to install ANY app
on Google Play, on EVERY device registered with that Google account.
The user will not be prompted and will not have any way to stop this.
- Trojan app could be full screen and the user will not even see the
install notification.
- Trojan app could choose to install the app on a different device,
from the devices registered with the Google account, the user will not
see anything unusual on the current device where the Trojan runs.
- The installed app can have access to ALL permissions (if it
specifies so in the manifest) without the user explicitly approving
that, it could have access to services that cost you money, like
sending SMS or making phone calls, manage accounts, disable your
phone, just look at the permission list.
- Since you have access to all Google data for that account, there
are other scenarios, like accessing emails and more, but the PoC did
not address those.
The fix
The Google fix, as far as I could tell, was to not allow the browser
to automatically login. Instead, the user will be prompted with a text
that says it would allow the app to have access to all Google data.
This however does not inform the user that it will allow automatic
installation of any app, potentially causing direct and immediate loss
of money.
I will not release the PoC, I think it would be too easy to cause real
damage. However it is not that difficult to implement.
Vendor contact timeline
2013-12-16 - Contact security(at)google.com.
2013-12-17 - Received reply that the issues was passed to
2013-12-20 - Received reply that they could not reproduce the issue.
2013-12-20 - Sent a stripped down version of the PoC, not much different.
2014-01-16 - Request status update.
2014-01-24 - Received response that the rollout of the fix started last week.

There's a Chick-fil-A on the Sunset Boulevard corner where Lana Turner was said to have been discovered, a public school at the former Ambassador Hotel site where Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft filmed their trysts in "The Graduate" and a CVS in the Art Deco building that once housed the offices of Hollywood's chief censor, Will Hays.
But despite how it has changed over the decades, Los Angeles is still a magnet for classic film fans who are drawn to the city's starring role in cinema history. As more and more movies are made in other states and countries, it's a role that seems to be fading into all but memories.
On a recent morning, 36 cinephiles climbed into a glass-roofed bus for a three-hour tour of movie locations featuring such sites as the white-tiled Second Street tunnel that represents future L.A. in "Blade Runner" and the arched Paramount Pictures gates that Gloria Swanson drives through in "Sunset Boulevard."
The cable network Turner Classic Movies created the expedition, the "TCM Movie Locations Tour," to celebrate its 20th anniversary this year. Operated in partnership with sightseeing company Starline Tours, the bus tour was designed to overlap with the 2014 TCM Classic Film Festival, an event that will draw about 25,000 people to screenings of decades-old films running Thursday through Sunday in Hollywood.
Both the tour and the festival, a kind of Coachella for classic film fans, bring out a surprising mix of people: those who remember when — and those who just wish they did.
The TCM tour is one of dozens of bus excursions that rumble through Hollywood, some visiting stars' homes, some hitting supposedly haunted sites and one run by celebrity news site TMZ. Because it's curated by TCM, the TCM tour has attracted a distinctly polite and film-savvy ridership, according to guide Jim Jepson.
"Let's just say the Audrey Hepburn crowd is very different from the Kim and Kanye crowd," he said.
In response to heavy demand, the bus tour, which TCM has offered free on a trial basis, may become a permanent fixture, according to a representative from Starline.
The tour winds from the TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood past Hollywood High, where, Jepson tells passengers, Carol Burnett edited the school newspaper, and proceeds on toward the Formosa Cafe in West Hollywood where Humphrey Bogart drank his Scotch. (Jepson, like many L.A. tour guides, is an actor, having played a series of small roles in TV movies and short films and served as Turtle's stand-in on "Entourage.")
On a 65-inch TV screen at the front of the bus, scenes from films play as the tour rolls past their location. As Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy drop a piano down a flight of stairs in their 1932 short "The Music Box," the bus passes the base of the staircase on Vendome Street in Silver Lake. As Tim Robbins hears a movie pitch from a car valet in the 1992 show business satire "The Player," the bus rolls by the 95-year-old Hollywood Center Studios on Las Palmas Avenue, where that scene, along with others from "I Love Lucy" and "The Addams Family," were filmed.
Many of the sites on the tour have survived thanks to the efforts of Hollywood history preservationists. When a shopping center with a Target and Best Buy went up by the Formosa Cafe a decade ago, the city of West Hollywood forced the developer to keep the 1925 restaurant.
On the bus, the crowd was roughly split between visitors from places like Spain, Houston and Cincinnati and Southern Californians like George and Glenda Nicholas of Arcadia.
"It takes us back to when we were young," said George Nicholas, 72, as the bus stopped at the Bradbury Building, the Romanesque downtown landmark that appeared in the 1950 fim noir "D.O.A." and, more recently, the 2011 best picture winner "The Artist."
Like so many native Angelenos, Nicholas has a tie to show business — his uncle was a stand-in for Errol Flynn. He and wife Glenda recalled taking a street car from their homes in Highland Park as children to see movies at the Million Dollar Theater on Broadway. Watching classic films, Glenda Nicholas said, is a way to revisit what in some ways felt like a simpler time.
"For a lot of people, these movies are calming on an unconscious psychological level," said TCM host Ben Mankiewicz, who also appears onscreen during the bus tour to share bits of Hollywood lore. "It's a nostalgia for a way of life."
While the Nicholases represent a demographic that saw many of these movies in theaters the first time around, classic film has an equally passionate, if smaller, fan base among viewers like Tiffany Vazquez, 27, who will visit this week from her home in Bayside, Queens, to attend the TCM film festival. The year Vazquez was born, "Three Men and a Baby" and "Fatal Attraction" were box-office hits, but she said she feels closer to earlier cinematic generations — in particular film noir titles of the 1940s and 50s like "The Naked City" and "Sunset Boulevard."
"I've always liked older things, things from another era," said Vazquez, who works as an intern at the Film Society of Lincoln Center in New York. "I love the fact that people are dressed differently, talking differently. I've always felt I was born a few decades too late."
Vazquez is one of 20 people who won a contest that TCM held for fans to introduce a favorite film on air with network host Robert Osborne during April. She won for a video introduction she shot introducing "Naked City." After watching a YouTube video on retro hairdos, she styled her hair in a '40s wave, donned a trench coat and filmed a black-and-white, noir-style short set against the backdrop of the New York skyline.
Another contest winner, Robert Best, a 45-year-old Barbie doll designer from L.A., described meeting fellow classic film fans at TCM in Atlanta. "It was interesting to me to meet people who talked the same language," Best said. "Like, 'Oh wow, these are my people. Names like Myrna Loy actually have some meaning to these people.'"
On the bus, a woman who identified herself only as "Ms. Faye" described a two-week classic film binge she indulged in after her son left for college. "It was my time," she said of her viewing marathon. "That whole era from '25 to '39, I could live there — the fashions, the cars, the ambience."
Rattling off trivia questions that the crowd fielded handily, Jepson doled out prizes including a Doris Day CD and Marx Brothers DVD.

The prostate, in simplest terms, is part of the reproductive system of males (it holds about 25 to 30% of the semen and it also helps in the ejaculation of the semen). It is located below the bladder and in front of the bowel. It is shaped like a walnut, is about 1.2 inches across, and surrounds a part of the urethra. Know the different problems that may involve the prostate. There are four common conditions that involve the prostate, and these are the following: prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia, prostatodynia, and prostate cancer.
Prostatitis is characterized by inflammation of the prostate, and can result to discomfort in the pelvis. This condition may be caused by infection. Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH) refers to the enlargement of the prostate, and this condition is common among men 50 years old and above. Prostatodynia refers to chronic prostate disease, and it is characterize by pain in the pelvic region.
Prostate cancer is the one condition of the prostate that is life-threatening. It is one of the slower-growing cancers, and early detection and treatment is very important. Men who are over 50 are advised to periodically be examined for prostate cancer, as this is the second-largest cause of male-cancer deaths and in many cases, there are no obvious symptoms at all.
Know the general symptoms of a prostate problem. The four prostate problems identified above may be characterized by similar symptoms. Some of the symptoms to watch out for include the following: difficulty, discomfort/ pain and uncharacteristic frequency in urinating, painful ejaculation, blood in the urine or semen, decreased sexual urges, and decreased ability to get an erection. Anybody who has any of the above symptoms is recommended to consult their doctor right away, as the best solution for any prostate problem is still early diagnosis and treatment.
Consult your doctor immediately. How the doctor treats the prostate problem will of course, depend on the diagnosis. Pain medications and muscle relaxants are given in the case of chronic pain.
Know how prostate cancer will be diagnosed. The diagnosis of prostate cancer is done through the biopsy of the prostate gland. The treatment of this condition depends on the extent of the tumor: whether it is organ-confined/localized to the gland; locally advanced; or metastatic/spread to other areas of the body. There are many ways that a person could help facilitate his healing through simple home remedies. Diet is of course very crucial: a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, selenium and antioxidants will help reduce inflammation and help control symptoms. It is also recommended that caffeine, alcohol and food with hydrogenated vegetable oil as an ingredient be avoided.
These exercises are known to build up the muscles in the pelvic region and helps reduce prostate problem symptoms. To do Kegel exercises, simply contract your muscles as if you were stopping yourself from urinating; hold this for 15 seconds, release, then contract muscles once again. These exercises should be done several times daily.
Remember, prostate problems are treatable, but it is best that they be detected very early. Be conscious about getting regular check-ups so you won't have to worry about this disease

nuzzle up (to someone or something)(redirected from nuzzling up to them)
nuzzle up (to someone or something)
1. Of an animal, to rub its nose against someone or something in an affectionate manner. I've never really liked being around dogs. Even when they're just nuzzling up to me, it makes me nervous.
2. To snuggle or cuddle (up to someone or something). When my daughter was a young girl, the only way she'd fall asleep was nuzzled up to her favorite teddy bear. Everyone makes a big deal about going out on Friday nights, but my girlfriend and I are usually happy just to nuzzle up on the couch with a good movie.

I've been having a devil of a time getting Inkscape to export PDFs cleanly and there don't seem to be very many answers out there on all the various wikis and tutorials. In particular, transparencies are a bit of a crap-shoot - sometimes the transparency will disappear and sometimes it'll be made into a solid block.
I've tried fiddling with the save-as-PDF settings in Inkscape and I've tried printing to a PDF using CutePDF with less than satisfactory results. Is there some method of exporting my file - or some method of creating my file - that I can use to get predictable results?

How to Buy an Existing Business
How to Buy an Existing Business
Are you ready to enter the business world but nervous about starting from scratch? You may be considering buying an existing business, which certainly has its perks when compared to establishing your own, brand-new operation. But there's still plenty to keep in mind, and success isn't guaranteed by simply writing a check and getting the keys. Here are a few tips to help you do your due diligence as you explore buying a business.
Considering the pros and cons
There are many favorable aspects to buying an existing business such as an existing customer base, a team of employees and drastic reduction in startup costs. You may be able to jump start your cash flow immediately because of existing inventory and receivables.
But there are also some downsides to buying an existing business. Purchasing cost may be much higher than the cost of starting a new business exactly because the initial business concept, customer base, brand and other fundamental work has already been done. Also, be aware of hidden problems associated with the business (like debts the business is owed that you may not be able to collect).
Choosing a business
There are many different types of businesses to buy. To narrow down the list of potential businesses you might be considering, ask yourself:
- What are my interests? If you have absolutely no idea what business you want to invest in, first eliminate businesses that are of no interest to you.
- What are my talents? Being honest about your skills and experience can help you eliminate unrealistic business ventures.
- What are my conditions for a business? Consider if a business has a condition that is unfavorable to you, such as location and time commitment.
Doing your research
Once you have found a business that you would like to buy, it is important to conduct a thorough, objective investigation and to determine a fair and equitable price for the sale of the business. You'll want to examine information such as tax returns, financial statements, employee files, contracts, leases and any other important documents related to the business.
TIP: You should enlist a qualified attorney to help review the legal and organizational documents of the business you are planning to purchase. Also, an accountant can help with a thorough evaluation of the financial condition of the business.
Buying a business
When you've decided to move forward with buying a business, the sales agreement is the key document you'll need to finalize the purchase. This agreement defines everything that you intend to purchase including business assets, customer lists, intellectual property and goodwill. If you do not have a lawyer to help you draft the terms of the sale, you should at least have one review the agreement before you sign it.
Closing on a business
The closing is the final step in the process of buying a business. Once again, you should have legal counsel available to review all documentation necessary for the business transfer. This page details items you should address during your closing.
If you think buying an exiting business could be the right path for you, there's a lot of information available to help you succeed, including this article from Entrepreneur.com and additional guidance from NOLO.com.

The one constant in this technology world is change. Technology changes at an amazing pace and it's not trivial to keep up with this as a developer. Only six months ago we were in San Francisco for Build 2013. Since that time we have released Windows 8.1 to the public, we launched Surface 2 and… Read more

If you've been a cubicle-dweller any length of time, chances are you've experienced an office culture that stinks: Unhappy workers, cheerless managers, and a generally dismal vibe.
Kevin Kuske, Chief Anthropologist and General Manager for office furniture company turnstone, tours the country studying small businesses that boast highly productive, well functioning workspaces. They're inspiring, he says, "but the minute you leave them you start to see the inverse in others. Unfortunately, you don't have to look too hard to find a bad work culture."
Turnstone helps well-intentioned business leaders who've inadvertently established dysfunctional workplaces to transform their office environments. Based on his experience, Kuske says, "Culture is something you shape, not change. You can coax it, you can enable it. But you can't flip a switch."
If you're a worker in a bad office culture, the good news is "managers don't control the office culture," Kuske says. Sure, they can influence it. But he believes an office culture is "owned by the people."
Last month we got Kuske's tips for "How to create a great small business workspace." Here he shares some ideas for how to transform a bad culture to one where you'll be happy to spend 8+ hours a day.
But first, Kuske says, you know your office culture is bad when:
1. Everyone there behaves with caution. If the people you work with watch carefully what they say, restrain how they act, or are cagey about what they share, "that should tell you there's something wrong," Kuske says. People are more creative and innovative when they can be themselves at work, he says. A stuffy, stifling work environment stands in the way of progress. "Everybody and the business will benefit by being able to be more comfortable in their own skin at work."
2. Employees are robotic drones. When individual personalities are shut down and everyone interacts on a safe, inside-the-box level, you won't see a lot of energy or passion and you won't get out-of-the-box ideas, Kuske says. "To be creative, the first thing you've got to build in any business is trust: Trust that you can put yourself out there, and trust in your fellow worker," he says. "Otherwise people keep all those ideas to themselves."
3. You can't glean any clues about the brand or the people behind it when you walk in the door. If you can tour four different offices without being able to tell the difference between them, you've got four cultures that are in trouble, Kuske says. A dynamic business backed by a passionate, energetic, and engaged workforce shouts at you from the reception desk.
4. There is a complete lack of fun. "Meaningful fun is about people connecting with each other," Kuske says. And he believes those connections are crucial to creativity. He doesn't mean your office has to have puppet shows or ping pong tables. Kuske points to one company that introduced levity by installing a central kitchen where twice weekly games, contests, or happy hours take place around the countertop. He has also seen a company that provides scooters for getting around a concrete warehouse, one that features a full-size NASCAR vehicle as office décor, and a Denver ski apparel company that hung old lift chairs face-to-face in the conference room. "If there is no evidence that people know how to have fun, or if it's not acceptable to have fun, that's a huge danger sign," Kuske warns.
5. There's no movement and little interaction. If people come to the office, go to their spot, and go home, the organization is not capturing the benefits that come from spontaneous interactions among its thinkers. "When there are no water cooler chats or meetings popping up in the middle of the space, it's a sign of a bad culture. You can walk in the door of an office like that and in 15 minutes see these things," Kuske says.
How to overcome any of these impediments to operating a productive, innovative company?
"Some part of fixing this starts with recognizing the value in the physicality of a space, which is turnstone's passion," Kuske says. The physical design of a space plays a role in bringing people and technology together: "In the world of creative work that's where co-creation happens," he says.
If you're the owner, he says, allow people to be creative. "There are owners who want this and they don't know how to design the office in a way that gives the team permission." Kuske suggests opening up spaces for group interactions, and then joining some of those impromptu gatherings so that everyone knows it's permitted. "Leaders have to behaviorally show it's OK, and the space needs to support that," Kuske says.
If the space declares, "you have no right or ability to gather," of course nobody will, he says. On the flip side, you can throw an open meeting space in the middle of the room, but nobody will use it if you haven't given permission to. Kuske jokes, "This is the furniture guy saying 'it's not all about the furniture.'"
But if you're the one sitting in the cubicle, with no clout to redesign the office or order new furniture, Kuske says, "You've got to build a case for change." He suggests, "Paint pictures for management of companies that yours envies or feels competitive with." (Or he says, take articles like this to your manager.)
When you're immersed in a bad environment, it might feel enforced, but Kuske believes most workplaces wind up with a drone culture by default. "It's an unintended consequence of no one breaking the mold; people assume that's the way leadership wants things done."
He suggests that a group of like-minded individuals can loosen the reins and bring about a culture change from the ground up. "You can start to chink away at it by organizing something like a 'Wine Not Wednesday,'" Kuske says. "When work is done, everyone stays for an extra 45 minutes to socialize. Little things like that start to break down barriers."
He shares an anecdote about a company that introduces its fun-loving attitude right at the job interview. When candidates get far enough through the selection process to meet the founder, he interviews them at the ping-pong table. The message is, "If you're not OK with this, this is not the right place for you. If you are, this is the right place." Kuske says, "It's very deliberate on his part to set a tone, and to find the people who fit the culture."
