Phrack Magazine issue #67 announced

I think you have the wrong idea of what Phrack is about. It's about exploring technologies that are old, new, whatever. If you want cutting edge, go read full-disclosure where you can read up on the latest XSS bugs being found.

Exploiting Memory Corruptions in Fortran Programs Under Unix/VMS that is some serious bleeding edge shit right there

Fortran is very widely used. As is Unix. I don't see anything wrong with having that article in there. Also, if you are hacking something/someone then knowing about all the obscure bits of technology they have is vitally important.

I... cannot see any download link. Or any other kinds of links to #67.

Seems the submission to HN should be titled "announced" rather than "released".

The website earlier said "phrack will be at ruxcon", which is this weekend (starts the 20th). I imagine it will be released then.

Maybe you wanted to contribute something instead of mocking other people's shit, then?

Same to you, buddy. At least the grandparent contributed a joke.

XSS is hardly cutting edge.
