I have a set of pads for use in a design and I was wondering which attributes should I put on each pin.

Let's say it has the following pins:

   - inh_vdd, inh_vss, CORE, PAD where the first two are for the pad rings, the CORE pin is to use in the die and the PAD pin is the bonding pad.

I guess CORE would need:

   CLASS CORE

   USE POWER  (or GROUND if this happened to be a ground pad)

What about the inh_vdd and inh_vss? Theyu would not have the CLASS CORE, but would I use USE POWER/GROUND on them too?

   USE POWER (or GROUND)

   SHAPE ABUTMENT

And the bonding pad? Should I put it in the LEF? Or would that cause confusion to innovus or Voltus? And what attributed would it use? USE POWER/GROUND only?

Do I need anything in the LEF to indicate that the pin CORE and the pin PAD are essentially the same thing, just different places on the same power pad?

HI, I have been using the Innovus GUI commands for several things and wonder if those command can be written to a log or cmd file so I can use it in my flow script? Is there such options that we can set?

Thanks

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability that exists due to a lack of input validation when creating a user. Messages for a given user are stored in a directory partially defined by the username. By creating a user with a directory traversal payload as the username, commands can be written to a given directory. To use this module with the cron exploitation method, run the exploit using the given payload, host, and port. After running the exploit, the payload will be executed within 60 seconds. Due to differences in how cron may run in certain Linux operating systems such as Ubuntu, it may be preferable to set the target to Bash Completion as the cron method may not work. If the target is set to Bash completion, start a listener using the given payload, host, and port before running the exploit. After running the exploit, the payload will be executed when a user logs into the system. For this exploitation method, bash completion must be enabled to gain code execution. This exploitation method will leave an Apache James mail object artifact in the /etc/bash_completion.d directory and the malicious user account.

macOS and iOS suffers from an out-of-bounds timestamp write in IOAccelCommandQueue2::processSegmentKernelCommand().

The HC.Server service in Hosting Controller HC10 10.14 allows an Invalid Pointer Write DoS if attackers can reach the service on port 8794. In addition this can potentially be leveraged for post exploit persistence with SYSTEM privileges, if physical access or malware is involved. If a physical attacker or malware can set its own program for the service failure recovery options, it can be used to maintain persistence. Afterwards, it can be triggered by sending a malicious request to DoS the service, which in turn can start the attackers recovery program. The attackers program can then try restarting the affected service to try an stay unnoticed by calling "sc start HCServerService". Services failure flag recovery options for "enabling actions for stops or errors" and can be set in the services "Recovery" properties tab or on the command line. Authentication is not required to reach the vulnerable service, this was tested successfully on Windows 7/10.

Bull / IBM AIX Clusterwatch / Watchware suffers from having trivial admin credentials, system file writes, and OS command injection vulnerabilities.

This Metasploit module exploits a vulnerability on the lrFileIOService ActiveX, as installed with HP LoadRunner 11.50. The vulnerability exists in the WriteFileString method, which allow the user to write arbitrary files. It's abused to drop a payload embedded in a dll, which is later loaded through the Init() method from the lrMdrvService control, by abusing an insecure LoadLibrary call. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully on IE8 on Windows XP. Virtualization based on the Low Integrity Process, on Windows Vista and 7, will stop this module because the DLL will be dropped to a virtualized folder, which isn't used by LoadLibrary.

This Metasploit module exploits a remote arbitrary file write vulnerability in SolidWorks Workgroup PDM 2014 SP2 and prior. For targets running Windows Vista or newer the payload is written to the startup folder for all users and executed upon next user logon. For targets before Windows Vista code execution can be achieved by first uploading the payload as an exe file, and then upload another mof file, which schedules WMI to execute the uploaded payload. This Metasploit module has been tested successfully on SolidWorks Workgroup PDM 2011 SP0 on Windows XP SP3 (EN) and Windows 7 SP1 (EN).

WASHINGTON: Some debts were not sustainable and needed to be restructured, re-profiled or written off, International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said in an interview recorded earlier this week.

In this interview to ITV News, Ms Georgieva also urged governments to spend more money on health workers to protect the most vulnerable.

“There is a possibility that in some cases debt simply is not sustainable and therefore some action has to be taken either to re-profile or restructure or in some cases write off this debt,” she said.

Although G20 countries have promised some debt relief, a transcript of the interview, released by the IMF headquarters in Washington, indicated that Ms Georgieva believed the crisis required them to go further.

Imran has argued that heavy debt burdens are preventing countries from focusing on the challenge of saving people from pandemic as well as hunger

Last month, Prime Minister Imran Khan appealed to the leaders of rich countries, the UN secretary general and heads of financial institutions to give debt relief to developing countries like Pakistan so that they could combat the deadly Covid-19 in a better way.

The prime minister argued that heavy debt burdens were preventing some countries from focusing on the real challenge of saving their people from the deadly pandemic and hunger that extended lockdowns would trigger.

The IMF chief, while acknowledging the need to restructuring loans, also said the first priority was to combat the disease that has already killed hundreds of thousands and infected several millions across the globe.

“The only thing we ask countries is please spend more money for your doctors and nurses — and please, please use the money to protect the most vulnerable,” she said.

The interviewer, Julie Etchingham, noted that loans usually came with conditions — such as tightening public spending — that were difficult to implement during the Covid-19 crisis.

Ms Georgieva said she was aware of the risks ahead for the IMF. “We are looking to the transparency and accountability in countries. They themselves are coming up with commitments to audit the use of the funds we provide, but there are no strings attached,” she said.

The IMF chief said that more than 100 countries had reached out to them for help to fight the pandemic and 50+ requests were swiftly approved for a total of about $18 billion.

Asked to assess the scale of the crisis facing the global economy, Ms Georgieva did not mince her words. “It is the worst crisis since the Great Depression. But it is more than that because it is a combination of a health crisis and an economic shock,” she said. “And it is truly global.”

The IMF now has about $1 trillion dollars lending capacity — four times more than in the last financial crisis.

The IMF approved $1.386 billion of assistance for Pakistan under the Rapid Financing Instrument to address the economic impact of the Covid-19 shock.
