Pair Plans To Disclose Month of MySpace Vulnerabilities

Mondo Armando and Müstaschio say they will disclose multiple security vulnerabilities in MySpace.com every day next month.

“The purpose of the exercise is not so much to expose Myspace as a hive of spam and villainy (since everyone knows that already), but to highlight the monoculture-style danger of extremely popular websites populated by users of various levels of sophistication. We could have just as easily gone after Google or Yahoo or MSN or ZDNet or whatever. Myspace is just more fun, and is becoming notoriously dickish about responding to security issues,” wrote Mondo Armando.

They plan to focus on publishing cross site scripting vulnerabilities but may also publish browser, Flash, and QuickTime bugs.

Is it an April Fools prank or do you think they’re for real? How many vulnerabilities do you think they’ll publish?
