Their intention is making developers aware of this flaws and give them a way for fix them - sadly, there are script kiddies and lamers that think it's cool to misuse them to hack or crash servers, etc.What are some of these "known exploits"

Ok, so does SBI have something akin to prevent the google -god from caching what's texted in here??
I realized to late after posting that it was meant for servers, not for ohter uses. I jjust decided to not edit my post after doing so,.....I got lazy, I guess.
See, slikrapid. I 'm repeating his name. I'm gonna hypnotize you and eventually, you'll start repeating it too. Just by the consistant use of it.

Oh, oh. Better use LINUX.
No, since that file controls whether Google can "see" us at all, no one could find us through it if we did.Ok, so does SBI have something akin to prevent the google -god from caching what's texted in here??

ok, so when I did a google search for sb-innovation, this is what comes up:
Now you mentioned that no-one could find the it through it, if we did.
You mean the site or the search??
I don't think that I understand completely.
It's either so simple for me that it's actually going right over my head or I'm missing something.

Also, it is a downloadable scanner program that interfaces google using various exploits "to audit" websites and entire domains for security holes. Doing this in even a mild capacity will get your IP banned. I do not recommend it. Besides most of the exploits incorporated into this utility are mostly public knowledge these days, so access to the previously available information and security holes on the individual servers have been patched up by the sites themselves.
well, it seems to me anonftw that the easiest way around it then is an IP change then, yes??
That's said on account that your IP is being banned pretty much everywhere you go then when you have the program in use, yes??

Oh yes, an IP change will fix you right up, but the ban is only temporary as well. It has been awhile, but I remember it lasting only part of the day. It seemed to have 403 banned from every google subdomain I had tried at the time. I remember going to bed and waking up unbanned on my static IP that I was using back then.
This only happened to me at the time because I used too many search options with the tool and google detected too many hits in a short period of time from my IP address.
so what kind of search options are there available on this tool that you used??
That is, what would they individually search of while you were browsing and the program was doing it's work??

It uses. It has been quite a while, but from what I recall it scanned for various items known to be blocked out by the google crawlers due to specified rules that were set in place to prevent the indexing of pieces of code/scripts used by websites as well as certain directories/files on servers that it indexes. (i.e. /etc/passwd) I remember it also scanning ports and subdomains.detailed search patterns that show untapped results for web sites previously indexed by Google
So basically, it just prevented one from accessing certain info on websites. LIke you say...passwords; pics from some album, perhaps; for-your-eyes-only type of info; scripts used to make up a website; ports for accessability..etc..etc..
That sounded like an interestin program that you used, then.
I don't think that I'd use it myself, though. Perhaps just not in my interest. Nontheless, an interesting proggy.
so how exactly did the websites realize that you were scanning??
You mentioned that it audits a website. How wold a website recognize an audit, then??

Actually most "normal" websites or hosts at the time did not notice such activity unless they had set in place software to monitor excessive activity as a preventative measure against DDOS attacks, set in place bandwidth caps, or flag excessive activity, etc. However, this is more likely to be the case in the current state of things. It was google that mainly noticed the excessive hits from a single location and flagged/blocked the address because they DID monitor such activity and did not/do not tolerate such excessive activity outside of which they would consider a reasonable amount of usage per location. The websites themselves usually did not notice unless you were, for example, grabbing alot of files really fast from an adult website or trying to access a certain portion of the tree structure without proper permissions.
As far as the term "auditing" in this context, it can be applied to computer security or the opposite of such. Basically looking for vulnerabilities for the good or harm of the website in question.
so basically google blocked a software that *could* be dangerous, meaning the google-god (:hypnotized: ) applied censorship as they saw fit, even though internet users have the 'right' to browse freely and look up any information they want (referring to that hacks database)
as for extensive 'auditing' - it is customary for the site owner to agree to such a procedure before its applied
ahh. I see. That's actually quite interesting and would also make sense on the methodoloy of how Google-god did things with people who used proggys like the one yours did, anonftw.
I imagine that there's more websites that are protected against some of the vulnerabilities that are audited once thier found out, yes??
See. Look. It worked.
One down.(hypnotized )
50,000 more to go....I guess.

sure, some 'patches' are applied by hosting companies, some by web admins - one of their assignments is to keep up to date with known issues/vulnerabilities announced by different security sites/companies or through a specifically requested audit
oh no, it must be less than that by now - google g** made sure of that
