DaemonFC | December 30, 2017 | Jan 15 02:54 |
DaemonFC | so MP3 is emcumbered by at least 16 patents, by the end of this month that will be down to 14, and on December 30, 2017 MP3 will be free | Jan 15 02:56 |
DaemonFC | 5 years, 11 months, and some change | Jan 15 02:56 |
DaemonFC | MP3 will be 24 years old when it is free | Jan 15 02:57 |

scientes | Firmware Modification Attacks and the Rise of Printer Malware | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | Network printers are ubiquitous fixtures within the modern IT infrastructure. Residing within sensitive networks and lacking in security, these devices represent high-value targets that can theoretically be used not only to manipulate and exfiltrate the sensitive information such as network credentials and sensitive documents, but also as fully functional general-purpose bot-nodes which give attackers a stealthy, persistent foothold inside t | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | he victim network for further recognizance, exploitation and exfiltration. | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | We first present several generic firmware modification attacks against HP printers. Weaknesses within the firmware update process allows the attacker to make arbitrary modifications to the NVRAM contents of the device. The attacks we present exploit a functional vulnerability common to all HP printers, and do not depend on any specific code vulnerability. These attacks cannot be prevented by any authentication mechanism on the printer, and c | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | an be delivered over the network, either directly or through a print server (active attack) and as hidden payloads within documents (reflexive attack). | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | In order to demonstrate these firmware modification attacks, we present a detailed description of several common HP firmware RFU (remote firmware update) formats, including the general file format, along with the compression and checksum algorithms used. Furthermore, we will release a tool (HPacker), which can unpack existing RFUs and create/pack arbitrary RFUs. This information was obtained by analysis of publicly available RFUs as well as | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | reverse engineering the SPI BootRom contents of several printers. | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | Next, we describe the design and operation a sophisticated piece of malware for HP (P2050) printers. Essentially a VxWorks rootkit, this malware is equipped with: port scanner, covert reverse-IP proxy, print-job snooper that can monitor, intercept, manipulate and exfiltrate incoming print-jobs, a live code update mechanism, and more (see presentation outline below). Lastly, we will demonstrate a self-propagation mechanism, turning this malwa | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | re into a full-blown printer worm. | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | Using HPacker, we demonstrate the injection of our malware into arbitrary P2050 RFUs, and show how similar malware can be created for other popular HP printer types. Next, we demonstrate the delivery of this modified firmware update over the network to a fully locked-down printer. | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | Lastly, we present an accurate distribution of all HP printers vulnerable to our attack, as determined by our global embedded device vulnerability scanner (see [1]). Our scan is still incomplete, but extrapolating from available data, we estimate that there exist at least 100,000 HP printers that can be compromised through an active attack, and several million devices that can be compromised through reflexive attacks. We will present a detai | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | led breakdown of the geographical and organizational distribution of observable vulnerable printers in the world. | Jan 15 04:04 |
scientes | *We have also unpacked several engine-control processor firmwares (different from the main SoC) and are currently attempting to locate code related to tracking dots. Perhaps we will have some results by December. In any case, HPacker will help the community to do further research in this direction, possibly allowing us to spoof / disable these yellow dots of burden. | Jan 15 04:04 |

scientes | what is it? | Jan 15 04:22 |
scientes | a RTOS? | Jan 15 04:22 |
DaemonFC | vxworks itself is proprietary, but its Ada implementation is GNU Ada | Jan 15 04:23 |
DaemonFC | licensed under the GPL | Jan 15 04:23 |
DaemonFC | so free software on Mars | Jan 15 04:23 |
DaemonFC | cool | Jan 15 04:23 |
scientes | is it a kernel? | Jan 15 04:23 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jan 15 04:23 |
DaemonFC | it is a real time operating system | Jan 15 04:23 |
DaemonFC | it is microkernel based | Jan 15 04:23 |
DaemonFC | Intel has owned Wind River Systems since 2009 | Jan 15 04:24 |
DaemonFC | so vxworks is now owned by Intel | Jan 15 04:24 |
DaemonFC | but it wasn't at the time NASA used it on the Mars rovers | Jan 15 04:24 |
DaemonFC | I edited the vxworks article just now | Jan 15 04:27 |
DaemonFC | to remove the term Intel 64 and replace it with X86-64 | Jan 15 04:27 |
DaemonFC | (→Design: Intel64 is Intel's marketing name for the 64-bit x86 extensions made by AMD as AMD64, I believe it would be better to use the generic name of the arch to avoid free advertising for Intel over something they did not create.) | Jan 15 04:27 |
scientes | http://www.patentlyapple.com/patently-apple/2012/01/apple-invents-an-ingenious-security-system-for-the-iwallet-era.html | Jan 15 04:28 |
DaemonFC | there really are differences between Intel 64 and AMD64, but they are minor | Jan 15 04:29 |
scientes | you mean EMT64 | Jan 15 04:29 |
DaemonFC | almost every compiler uses the features that are supported by both (which is more or less the entire thing) | Jan 15 04:29 |
DaemonFC | no, they renamed it again | Jan 15 04:29 |
DaemonFC | theirs is Intel 64 now | Jan 15 04:29 |
scientes | god damn | Jan 15 04:29 |
DaemonFC | :P | Jan 15 04:29 |
scientes | and what is itanium called? | Jan 15 04:30 |
scientes | for x86_64/amd64 | Jan 15 04:30 |
DaemonFC | Itanium is IA-64 | Jan 15 04:30 |
DaemonFC | Intel's Itanium IA-64 architecture is fully incompatible with x86, period. It required either an x86 CPU embedded into the Itanium CPU or software emulation of x86 (Itanium 2) to run x86 executables | Jan 15 04:31 |
DaemonFC | Intel never intended to extend x86 to 64-bit, they wanted to make everyone keep using x86-32 with Physical Address Extension, which is their name for 36-bit memory addressing | Jan 15 04:31 |
DaemonFC | which would have only solved the problem until you needed more than 64 GB of memory | Jan 15 04:32 |
DaemonFC | that way it would still be viable for the desktop, but anyone that needed more than 64 GB would have toi buy an Itanium from Intel for thousands of dollars | Jan 15 04:32 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jan 15 04:32 |
DaemonFC | WoW64 for Windows (Windows on Windows 64-bit) was originally made for the Itanium so that it could direct x86-32 software to use either the x86-32 core on Itanium or the software emulator for x86-32, which was written by Microsoft and Intel | Jan 15 04:33 |
DaemonFC | the version of WoW64 that you see on Windows for x86-64 is a trimmed down version of it that only has to switch the processor from one context to another as needed in x86-64 Long Mode | Jan 15 04:34 |

DaemonFC | since AMD has patents on x86-64, they used it as leverage to extend their license for x86 itself (from Intel) | Jan 15 04:36 |
DaemonFC | so what you have now is cross licensing | Jan 15 04:36 |
DaemonFC | that was the primary reason for AMD coming up with X86-64, to give them some leverage over Intel | Jan 15 04:37 |
DaemonFC | I can't say I blame them either, Intel is the Microsoft of CPUs | Jan 15 04:37 |
DaemonFC | Microsoft liked it because it meant that you have full speed and flawless backward compatibility with x86-32 applications and the CPU itself can act as an x86-32 CPU if you run an x86-32 OS on it | Jan 15 04:38 |
DaemonFC | it made the migration more or less transparent to the end user | Jan 15 04:39 |
DaemonFC | and Microsoft no longer had to maintain a port of Windows to a niche architecture | Jan 15 04:39 |
DaemonFC | of course, Linux was ported to x86-64 before the hardware was even available to anyone outside of AMD | Jan 15 04:39 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jan 15 04:39 |
DaemonFC | it took until around 2010 for most x86 Windows users to be using x86-64 | Jan 15 04:40 |
DaemonFC | according to Smolt, which is primarily representative of Fedora and OpenSuse users, x86-64 has been the majority since around 2007 on Linux | Jan 15 04:40 |
DaemonFC | and x86-64 users on Linux now outnumber x86-32 Linux users by 4-1 | Jan 15 04:41 |
DaemonFC | actually, that's not fair to x86-64, I rounded down | Jan 15 04:42 |
DaemonFC | it's actually somewhere between 4-1 and 5-1 | Jan 15 04:42 |
DaemonFC | and less and less Linux users even need the backward compatibility with x86-32 unless they want to run Windows applications on Wine or something | Jan 15 04:43 |
DaemonFC | or several pieces of proprietary software with no x86-64 port | Jan 15 04:43 |
DaemonFC | some games from the Humble Bundle jump out at me | Jan 15 04:43 |
DaemonFC | and so is that new Corel AfterShot Pro | Jan 15 04:44 |
DaemonFC | I dug around and noticed that the x86-64 DEB was actually x86-32 bit software with some path names changed around | Jan 15 04:44 |
DaemonFC | since Debian and Ubuntu violate the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard | Jan 15 04:45 |
DaemonFC | and RPM distributions don't violate the standard | Jan 15 04:45 |
DaemonFC | there only needed to be one RPM | Jan 15 04:45 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jan 15 04:45 |
DaemonFC | that's also the reason why some of those Humble Bundle games have a 64-bit DEB but only a 32-bit RPM | Jan 15 04:46 |
DaemonFC | 32-bit software in a DEB for 64-bit Debian based operating systems | Jan 15 04:47 |
DaemonFC | since Debian is a standard violator | Jan 15 04:47 |

scientes | wait, compatible doesn't exist cause it centralized | Jan 15 18:13 |

scientes | He is being real frank, which you never get from crap-producing propritary companies | Jan 15 21:01 |
DaemonFC | since it's cheap and much less risky | Jan 15 21:01 |
scientes | like Intel BIOS malware for example | Jan 15 21:01 |
scientes | they will never call it that | Jan 15 21:01 |
scientes | infact, they don't even use the word BIOS, cause it has such a bad name | Jan 15 21:01 |
DaemonFC | uEFI doesn't necessarily replace the BIOS | Jan 15 21:01 |
scientes | its not uEFI | Jan 15 21:02 |
DaemonFC | on an x86 PC, it only partially replaces the BIOS | Jan 15 21:02 |
scientes | i'm talking about their management platform that goes in the BIOS | Jan 15 21:02 |

scientes | its _really_ creepy shit | Jan 15 21:02 |
DaemonFC | I don't like this uEFI, it sounds to me like a huge layer of crap riding on top of the existing BIOS, which still has to so the power on self test and bring up the hardware | Jan 15 21:03 |
DaemonFC | so like 90% of the BIOS's job will still be done by the BIOS | Jan 15 21:03 |
DaemonFC | then uEFI's job is mainly to be a persistent malware | Jan 15 21:03 |
DaemonFC | that is always loaded and running | Jan 15 21:03 |
DaemonFC | and has veto power over the OS | Jan 15 21:03 |
DaemonFC | and can be used to control whether an OS even boots | Jan 15 21:04 |
DaemonFC | and it has an internet connection of its own | Jan 15 21:04 |
DaemonFC | it's not a good thing | Jan 15 21:04 |
DaemonFC | Red Hat and Canonical are both members of the uEFI forum, you have to pay to get a seat at the table, and even then you have no control over where it goes | Jan 15 21:04 |
DaemonFC | (but Microsoft does) | Jan 15 21:05 |
scientes | the whole thing is a butload of crap | Jan 15 21:05 |
scientes | I couldn't believe RedHat was there | Jan 15 21:05 |
DaemonFC | only the "Promoters" have control over the specification | Jan 15 21:05 |
scientes | either stick with BIOS or go to coreboot | Jan 15 21:05 |
DaemonFC | Red Hat and Canonical don't even get a vote | Jan 15 21:05 |
scientes | they should drop out on the grounds that no "replacement" for BIOS could do any better | Jan 15 21:06 |
scientes | as the whole concept is flawed---you always end up with an operating system | Jan 15 21:06 |
scientes | which is exactly what you don't want | Jan 15 21:06 |

DaemonFC | _Goblin: First they usually try to trick you into consenting to the search | Jan 15 22:52 |
DaemonFC | if you do that, then the search is legal and anything they find during the search is admissible as evidence | Jan 15 22:53 |
_Goblin | of course. Makes sense... | Jan 15 22:53 |
_Goblin | otherwise... | Jan 15 22:53 |
DaemonFC | if you don't consent, a lot of them will stick their nose in and claim they thought they smelled marijuana | Jan 15 22:53 |
DaemonFC | :) | Jan 15 22:53 |
DaemonFC | then the search is legal because they had probable cause | Jan 15 22:53 |
_Goblin | you could shoot someone, say to an officer...."Please search my car" and then get off with the offence when the murder weapon is found | Jan 15 22:53 |
_Goblin | "probable cause" - Thats what I was looking for.... In the UK its "reasonable grounds to believe"....... | Jan 15 22:54 |
DaemonFC | if you know you have something illegal in the car, obviously you should do anything you can to keep them out | Jan 15 22:54 |

schestowitz | DaemonFC: Law enforcement in the world is a joke in some areas for two reasons; 1) extortion and blackmail -- even physical violence -- are not taken seriously if the complaining spouse is male; 2) women are assumed to have financial entitlement that despite all that they sought in feminism, which was supposed to guarantee them equal opportunity and wage, is now a sham. | Jan 15 23:22 |

DaemonFC | (but it often does and leads to the bias in favor of the woman when child support comes to be an issue) | Jan 15 23:25 |

DaemonFC | this legal system in the US is so fucked up | Jan 15 23:29 |

DaemonFC | I spoke in court about her | Jan 15 23:29 |

DaemonFC | I told the court everything I saw and heard | Jan 15 23:30 |

DaemonFC | and then in return, it made no difference | Jan 15 23:30 |

DaemonFC | that's "Justice" | Jan 15 23:30 |
DaemonFC | no it's not | Jan 15 23:30 |
schestowitz | so she cheated on Felta, got the house, and got both ends of the stick | Jan 15 23:30 |

DaemonFC | I don't know what's in it for the man in marriage | Jan 15 23:31 |
schestowitz | that seems to be why marriages in the US are falling | Jan 15 23:31 |
schestowitz | many marriages there seem to go along those lines | Jan 15 23:31 |
schestowitz | OR | Jan 15 23:31 |
DaemonFC | for the woman it's an early retirement plan | Jan 15 23:31 |
DaemonFC | she can do her time and then divorce him and take everything | Jan 15 23:31 |
scientes | "marriage" doesn't mean ANYTHING | Jan 15 23:31 |
schestowitz | The situation serves as a deterrence so couples stay forcibly together... as it would be more expensive to go separate ways | Jan 15 23:31 |
scientes | google "statutory rape" | Jan 15 23:31 |
schestowitz | "MAD marriage" :-) | Jan 15 23:32 |
schestowitz | MA.D. | Jan 15 23:32 |
scientes | wait "marital rape" | Jan 15 23:32 |
schestowitz | wait | Jan 15 23:32 |
DaemonFC | schestowitz: there's people I know who want a divorce but their financial situation is such that neither would end up ahead | Jan 15 23:32 |
schestowitz | that's like saying beautiful beaty? | Jan 15 23:32 |
DaemonFC | and the costs to get one are too much | Jan 15 23:33 |
schestowitz | that's like saying beautiful beauty? | Jan 15 23:33 |
DaemonFC | so they just unofficially separate | Jan 15 23:33 |
DaemonFC | on paper, the marriage is ongoing | Jan 15 23:33 |
schestowitz | yes, states like marriages | Jan 15 23:33 |
DaemonFC | it makes for better statistics for religious groups | Jan 15 23:33 |

schestowitz | "If Marriage 1.0 was about male fitness and prowess and Marriage 1.1 was about herd management and wealth-in-cows, Marriage 2.0 was about Wealth-in-real-estate-and-muffins." | Jan 15 23:35 |
scientes | " | Jan 15 23:35 |
scientes | It turns out that most Paleomarriages were the result of 1) short life expectancy/high infant mortality 2) hunter/gatherer/fisher economy and 3) availability of protein in the diet." | Jan 15 23:35 |

scientes | means women neccicarily spend all their life raising kids just to keep the species around | Jan 15 23:36 |
schestowitz | "Inheritance becomes a huge issue in Marriage 2.0 -- indeed, it's a defining characteristic. A man who farms (or owns some farmers) wants to ensure that his children are really his, and that his accumulated wealth will be distributed fairly to avoid feuds and bloodshed among his descendents. Since accumulated wealth is measured in bushels and acres, real estate is suddenly the most important thing in the world." | Jan 15 23:36 |
schestowitz | "Back in Marriage 1.0, you only had a few kids to divide up your personal effects; your stock-in-trade, skill as a hunter/fisher, is non-transferable, unless you count magic. Add in cows and it gets somewhat complicated, but not much more. But when it comes to real estate and the relative arability of a piece of land, then accumulated wealth becomes a very, very big deal. " | Jan 15 23:37 |
schestowitz | "The variant is Marriage 2.2, the Upper Class. Marriage is different for those of the aristocracy. Marriages are de facto unions of power blocs and economic empires. They aren’t expected to be romantic in the slightest, and are often barely sexual – as long as they produce a few legitimate heirs, they’re successful no matter how much they fight and scheme." | Jan 15 23:37 |
schestowitz | "Note the emphasis on fewer children – which means an institutional consolidation of power, as opposed to a dilution of power with every generation. Rich families have a few kids that they lavish attention on, instead of a lot of kids that they can support, but who will someday fight over the economic empire you’ve created. " | Jan 15 23:37 |

DaemonFC | broken multiarch was what chased me away from Kubuntu 11.10 | Jan 15 23:45 |
DaemonFC | I'll see where things are at in 12.04 | Jan 15 23:45 |
scientes | granted, emdebian is not perfect, but is getting better | Jan 15 23:45 |
DaemonFC | it probably won't be badly broken since they're more cautious about LTS releases | Jan 15 23:45 |
scientes | DaemonFC, i'm using 11.10, and i can install programs from i386 right from synaptic | Jan 15 23:46 |
DaemonFC | I still strongly disagree with how they're doing multiarch | Jan 15 23:46 |
DaemonFC | it's wrong, it's a standards violation | Jan 15 23:46 |

scientes | DaemonFC, how? | Jan 15 23:46 |
scientes | I've read the whole proposal, it makes sense | Jan 15 23:46 |
scientes | DaemonFC, you want /lib64 ? | Jan 15 23:46 |
DaemonFC | it violates the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard | Jan 15 23:46 |
scientes | thats whorrible | Jan 15 23:47 |

scientes | it enables upgrades from 32-bit to 64-bit | Jan 15 23:48 |
