hi thread, I’m posting this from an unpatched windows xp box with all default ports open because I figure nobody’s going to bother trying to hack those any more, it’s security by reverse psychology

I’m hoping a state actor gets there first and patches all the vulns including any 0 days they’re still holding onto. may as well get some value from my taxes even if it means they use me to hack other people or w/e

Install software updates, don't disable SIP and that's about it. people would be less inclined to disable sip if apple let you remove their useless shovelware like chess and stocks in any other way (idc how small it is, it prevents me having a nicely organised applications folder and that’s unforgivable)

salted hash browns posted:dissidents in PRC who use iMessage believing they are private if your plan for plotting against a totalitarian police state starts with "use a chat program that openly and deliberately prioritises convenience over security", then you have bigger problems than icloud backups like, iMessages by default falls back on unencrypted sms if the person you’re chatting with has a poor signal or a non-apple phone. that’s a harmless and well-intentioned feature that by itself makes the app completely unsuitable for dissidents.

Also there might be libraries for using it that don't require windows and don't completely suck now, but that wasn't the case when the format was first created. there have been decent libs for xlsx for ages now. then again there were already decent libs for xls. don’t ask me how I know I’ve nearly stopped having flashbacks

~Coxy posted:wouldn't say they're decent if you want to do something complicated then you should be doing it in the real programming language you’re clearly already using. excel libraries are for input and output where customers really want to use excel, or where you really just want csv but you know it will only ever be loaded into excel and you want to avoid all the pitfalls of csv imports for these purposes, the existing libraries are surprisingly good

Wiggly Wayne DDS posted:no more than any other intel agency, really it'd be cheaper than tapping points and filtering traffic down to interesting targets if they'll pay you to do it themselves the difficulty there is persuading the interesting targets to use the vpn you own. I doubt the nsa actually has much interest in people who just want to block ads or bypass geographic blocks or w/e, and the russian government and isis probably run their own vpns people in like iran or china wanting to use a vpn to bypass govt censorship may be at risk from this kind of attack tho

it looks pretty solid so far, haven't tried anything complicated yet but the decompiler seems to work and it has loving undo and the structure editor isn't a monospaced text monstrosity like something out of the 1970s, and all these things are very promising. it even looks fine allowing for the fact that it's a swing gui with a bazillion toolbars, although maybe i've just been trained by ida to expect all reverse engineering tools to look like rear end. on the downside the control-flow graph stuff doesn't seem to be as well integrated as ida's graph views, and i'm not sure i like the layout algorithm (there's a dropdown for changing this but it only has one option in it, maybe all the good layout algorithms were redacted?) anyway it seems pretty cool and i can't argue with the price, thank you americans for paying for this with your tax dollars and thank you nsa for making something other than mind control satellites

but really who will ever need more than 256gb of key? i mean that's really a lot of key! probably it's ok to start reusing key at that point because any attacker will have given up and gone home after the first 128gb or so.

i'm gonna fix this entire class of bug with my new crypto-as-a-service startup. no more worrying over whether or not your crypto libraries have unpatched vulnerabilities in them. no more scrabbling around trying to find a trustworthy crypto library in your hipster language of the month. now you just make a simple http request to our web api and our guaranteed-correct implementation returns as many bytes of key stream as you need, computed on the fly in our secure maryland datacenter
