This is great if you only have a single disk, but if you have multiple encrypted disks that are unlocked in the initrd this way, then if you can gain control flow by faking data on the last decrypted disk you can still gain access to all th

I can think of plenty real world usecases. Take for example a network interface that can send or receive predefined packet structs. Imagine each packet requires a size header. When you want to send multiple packets at once, you now want to

Not parent, but I'm doing the same thing and I have had 5 leaks out of (currently) 387 accounts over the past 4 years (which is when I started doing this). Oh and none of the involved entities ever acknowledged the leaks. I'd also

I haven't looked at the project but would assume that several people generated their wallets by using this tool. The attackers were thus able to generate keys for existing wallets by simply bruteforcing the measly 31 bits that were use

Just a battery would be the simplest option. Just measure time until empty. If you want higher time resolution, there are several fully integrated hall effect current measurement ICs out there, like for example the ACS723. If you need even

Nothing here requires uploading the image to some form of cloud service. Do the recognition locally - maybe on a phone connected via Bluetooth. Never have any information leave the device and you will have significantly less privacy concern

If anyone wants to learn about GPS from the ground up, there's an excellent website with interactive explanations by Bartosz Ciechanowski that I can wholeheartedly recommend [1]. His blog also covers other topics in a similar style - i

I got fed up with ansible and pyinfra and created a new tool [1] to fix some of the issues I've had. I spent weeks on documentation, yet it is kind of useless. There simply are industry proven tools for the same thing already in existe

I can recommend this guide [1] to setup your yubikey with gpg, which allows you to both use it to sign or encrypt with gpg and also to use it as an ssh key. [1] https://github.com/drduh/YubiKey-Guide
