Background:
WebJob downloads a program over HTTP/HTTPS and executes it in one
unified operation. The output, if any, may be directed to
stdout/stderr or a Web resource. WebJob may be useful in incident
response and intrusion analysis as it provides a mechanism to run
known good diagnostic programs on a potentially compromised system.
It can also support a variety of centralized management and
host-based monitoring solutions such as process monitoring, file
integrity, package/patch deployment, configuration management,
and policy compliance.

WebJob is also the home of Payload and Delivery (PaD) technology.
A PaD file is a self-extracting executable which can be implemented
as either a script or a program. In addition to extracting their
payload, PaD executables support flexible payload delivery. In
other words, the user controls if, when, and how a given payload
will be delivered. Within the PaD framework, delivery refers to
the act of running one or more commands to manipulate or otherwise
make use of the extracted payload.

Announcement:
Version 1.5.0 is a minor release of WebJob. Generally, code was
cleaned up and refined as necessary. Several bugs have been fixed
-- see the ChangeLog for details. Externally, there have been
several changes: (1) the default installation directory has
changed; (2) several new controls have been added; (3) WebJob and
PaD tools now recognize or set certain environment variables; and
(4) the CGI script provides support for per client/command
configuration overrides. A test harness has been added along with
tests to validate MD5/SHA1 hashes (including SHA-1 Sample Vectors
provided and used by NIST). Internally, the main improvements are
MD5/SHA1 performance and the addition of large file support.
