The new rules for Perl governance

The process of adopting a new governance model for the Perl project appears to be reaching an end; the new model is designed to look a lot like the one adopted by the Python project. "So, now Perl has two well-defined bodies involved in its governance: a core team of a few dozen and a steering council of three people. The core team sets the rules of Per […]

[$] Mutt releases version 2.0

The venerable email client Mutt has just reached version 2.0. Mutt is different from the type of client that has come to dominate the email landscape—for one thing, it has no graphical interface. It has a long history that is worth a bit of a look, as are its feature set and extensive customizability. Version 2.0 brings several enhancements to Mutt's in […]

GNU Guix 1.2.0 released

GNU Guix, a functional package manager and associated free software distribution, was introduced eight years ago. The 1.2.0 release celebrates the anniversary. "A major highlight in this release is the ability to authenticate channels, which probably makes Guix one of the safest ways to deliver complete operating systems today. This was the missing link […]

Huang: Evaluating Precursor’s Hardware Security

For those who are interested in security at the hardware level, this blog post from Andrew 'bunnie' Huang is well worth a read. "Despite any claims you may have heard otherwise, tamper resistance is a largely unsolved problem. Any secrets committed to a non-volatile format are vulnerable to recovery by a sufficiently advanced adversary. The av […]

Threat Hunting with JARM, (Fri, Nov 27th) 27 Νοεμβρίου, 2020

Recently I have been testing a new tool created by the people at Salesforce. The tool is called JARM and what it does is query TLS instances (HTTPS servers and services) to create a fingerprint of their TLS configuration. Much like analyzing the nuances of network traffic can be used to fingerprint the operating system and version of a server, JARM fingerpri […]

Live Patching Windows API Calls Using PowerShell, (Wed, Nov 25th) 25 Νοεμβρίου, 2020

It&#39;s amazing how attackers can be imaginative when it comes to protecting themselves and preventing security controls to do their job. Here is an example of a malicious PowerShell script that patches live a DLL function to change the way it works (read: "to make it NOT work"). This is not a new technique but it has been a whi […]

The special case of TCP RST, (Tue, Nov 24th) 24 Νοεμβρίου, 2020

In TCP, packets with the "Reset" (RST or R) flag are sent to abort a connection. Probably the most common reason you are seeing this is that an SYN packet is sent to a closed port.

Malicious Python Code and LittleSnitch Detection, (Fri, Nov 20th) 20 Νοεμβρίου, 2020

We all run plenty of security tools on our endpoints. Their goal is to protect us by preventing infection (or trying to prevent it). But all those security tools are present on our devices like normal applications and are, therefore, easy to detect. Techniques to detect the presence of such security tools are multiple:
