8lgm (Eight Little Green Men)
To join, send e-mail to majordomo@8lgm.org and, in the text of your message
(not the subject line), write:
subscribe 8lgm-list
Group of hackers that periodically post exploit scripts for various Unix
bugs. (Footnote: 8lgm originally stood for: Eight Legged Groovin' Machine)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Academic Firewalls
To join, send e-mail to majordomo@net.tamu.edu and, in the text of your
message (not the subject line), write:
SUBSCRIBE Academic-Firewalls
This is an unmoderated list maintained by Texas A&M University. Its purpose
is to promote the discussion and use of firewalls and other security tools
in an academic environment. It is complementary to the Firewalls list
maintained by Brent Chapman (send subscription requests to
Majordomo@GreatCircle.COM) which deals primarily with firewall issues in a
commercial environment. Academic environments have different political
structures, ethical issues, expectations of privacy and expectations of
access.
Many documented incidents of cracker intrusions have either originated at or
passed through academic institutions. The security at most universities is
notoriously lax or even in some cases completely absent. Most institutions
don't use firewalls because they either don't care about their institution's
security, they feel firewalls are not appropriate or practical, or they
don't know the extent to which they are under attack from the Internet.
At Texas A&M University we have been using a combination of a flexible
packet filter, intrusion detection tools, and Unix security audit utilities
for almost two years. We have found that simple firewalls combined with
other tools are feasible in an academic environment. Hopefully the
discussion on this list will begin to raise the awareness of other
institutions also.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Alert
To join, send e-mail to request-alert@iss.net and, in the text of your
message (not the subject line), write:
subscribe alert
To remove, send e-mail to request-alert@iss.net and, in the text of your
message (not the subject line), write:
unsubscribe alert
This is a moderated list in the effort to keep the noise to a minimal and
provide quality security information. The Alert will be covering the
following topics:
* Security Product Announcements
* Updates to Security Products
* New Vulnerabilities found
* New Security Frequently Asked Question files.
* New Intruder Techniques and Awareness
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Best of Security
To join, send e-mail to best-of-security-request@suburbia.net with the
following in the body of the message:
subscribe best-of-security
REASONS FOR INCEPTION
In order to compile the average security administrator it was found that the
compiler had to parse a foreboding number of exceptionally noisy and
semantically-content-free data sets. This led to exceptionally high load
averages and a dramatic increase in core entropy.
Further, the number, names and locations of this data appears to change on
an almost daily basis; requiring tedious version control on the part of the
mental maintainer. Best-of-Security is at present an un-moderated list. That
may sound strange given our stated purpose of massive entropy reduction; but
because best often equates with "vital" and the moderator doesn't have an
MDA habit it is important that material sent to this list be delivered to
its subscribers' in as minimal period of time as is (in)humanly possible.
If you find *any* information from *any* source (including other
mailinglists, newsgroups, conference notes, papers, etc) that fits into one
of the acceptable categories described at the end of this document then you
should *immediately* send it to "best-of-security@suburbia.net". Do not try
and predict whether or not someone else will send the item in question to
the list in the immediate future. Unless your on a time-delayed mail vector
such as polled uucp or the item has already appeared on best-of-security,
mail the info to the list! Even if it is a widely deployed peice of
information such as a CERT advisory the proceeding argument still applies.
If the information hasn't appeared on this list yet, then SEND IT. It is far
better to run the risk of minor duplication in exchange for having the
information out where it is needed than act conservatively about occasional
doubling up on content.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Bugtraq
To join, send e-mail to LISTSERV@NETSPACE.ORG and, in the text of your
message (not the subject line), write:
SUBSCRIBE BUGTRAQ
This list is for *detailed* discussion of UNIX security holes: what they
are, how to exploit, and what to do to fix them.
This list is not intended to be about cracking systems or exploiting their
vunerabilities. It is about defining, recognizing, and preventing use of
security holes and risks.
Please refrain from posting one-line messages or messages that do not
contain any substance that can relate to this list`s charter.
Please follow the below guidelines on what kind of information should be
posted to the Bugtraq list:
* Information on Unix related security holes/backdoors (past and present)
* Exploit programs, scripts or detailed processes about the above
* Patches, workarounds, fixes
* Announcements, advisories or warnings
* Ideas, future plans or current works dealing with Unix security

(not the subject line), write:
SUBSCRIBE virus-l your-name
It is an electronic mail discussion forum for sharing information and ideas
about computer viruses, which is also distributed via the Usenet Netnews as
comp.virus. Discussions should include (but not necessarily be limited to):
current events (virus sightings), virus prevention (practical and
theoretical), and virus related questions/answers. The list is moderated and
digested. That means that any message coming in gets sent to me, the editor.
I read through the messages and make sure that they adhere to the guidelines
of the list (see below) and add them to the next digest. Weekly logs of
digests are kept by the LISTSERV (see below for details on how to get them).
For those interested in statistics, VIRUS-L is now up to about 2400 direct
subscribers. Of those, approximately 10% are local redistribution accounts
with an unknown number of readers. In addition, approximately 30,000-40,000
readers read comp.virus on the USENET.

SUBSCRIBE valert-l your-name
What is VALERT-L?
It is an electronic mail discussion forum for sharing urgent virus warnings
among other computer users. Postings to VALERT-L are strictly limited to
warnings about viruses (e.g., "We here at University/Company X just got hit
by virus Y - what should we do?"). Followups to messages on VALERT-L should
be done either by private e-mail or to VIRUS-L, a moderated, digested, virus
discussion forum also available on this LISTSERV, LISTSERV@LEHIGH.EDU. Note
that any message sent to VALERT-L will be cross-posted in the next VIRUS-L
digest. To preserve the timely nature of such warnings and announcements,
the list is moderated on demand (see posting instructions below for more
information).
What VALERT-L is *not*?
A place to to anything other than announce virus infections or warn people
about particular computer viruses (symptoms, type of machine which is
vulnerable, etc.).
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
WWW Security
To join, send e-mail to www-security-request@nsmx.rutgers.edu and, in the
text of your message (not the subject line), write:
SUBSCRIBE www-security your_email_address
The list is maintained by the www-security team of Network Services, Rutgers
University Telecommunications Division.
www-security is the official mailing list of the IETF Web Transaction
Security Working Group. While there are many approaches to providing
security services in the Web, most of the current work is concerned with
securing the HyperText Transport Protocol. Because of (1) the great need for
quick implementation of Web security services, (2) HTTP-level solutions
cover a wide range of WWW applications, and (3) the IETF is a proven forum
for promoting standards to vendors and the international networking
community, we suggest that the list focus and development of Internet
standards and related documents for secure services within HTTP.
