Auto + USBoombox

The Auto + USBoombox is something cute and chic, since it features a head that is made out of a casette tape, carrying around a boombox which hides a 1GB USB flash drive in reality. Each version of the Auto + USBoombox will also include an exclusive soundtrack. Hmmm, doesn't sound as though this MP3 player is going to light up the world anytime soon with its prowess (or rather, lack of it), and the $60 price tag might just turn most people off due to the perceived lack of value, but collectors will think otherwise.

Energizer Duo USB battery charger has a backdoor

Energizer Duo USB battery charger has a backdoor

Software for the Energizer Duo USB battery can be pretty dangerous - after all, it comes with a backdoor that potentially enables an attacker to remotely take control of a Windows-based computer. Good to know that Energizer and US-CERT (U.S. Computer Emergency Readiness Team) are aware of the situation and has issued a warning to the masses, with the latter stating that "The installer for the Energizer Duo software places the file UsbCharger.dll in the application's directory and Arucer.dll in the Windows system32 directory. Arucer.dll is a backdoor that allows unauthorized remote system access via accepting connections on 7777/tcp. Its capabilities include the ability to list directories, send and receive files, and execute programs." Energizer on their part has discontinued sale of this product, while removing the site to download the software as investigations are ongoing as to how this Trojan code managed to get into the software in the first place.

Google Chrome Business version coming

Google Chrome Business version coming

Google will be introducing a Business version of their Chrome OS that will hit netbooks from next year onwards, which might seem like a long time from now but actually isn't. The security engineers at Google have stated that this version will have "more management muscle". Apart from that, it seems that Chrome-powered netbooks will also feature a hardware-switch located right under the battery that would trigger "developer mode". When using this mode, certain special security functions will be turned-off in order to enable the developer to muck around with Chrome’s code.
