Having myself been invited to join AARP (the most powerful lobby in US, google it) for a few years now I can attest that unfortunately some old people just can't learn internet, even ones with strong engineering background and otherwis

Yep. I tried to avoid mentioning this in a polite company :).

I finally found the way to watch the presentation (BTW it's good), and the author mentions femtocell hacking as "if you hack femtocells you _may_ have a chance to have access to SS7", or something like that, i.e. very uncerta

The Verizon vuln referenced above seems has nothing to do with SS7. Femtocell is rooted, and only cell phones in a close proximity are vulnerable. I thought the presentation in Hannover deals with a much broader issue. And yes, femtocell ma

All TDM and Sigtran signaling links of world-wide SS7 network are configured manually peer-to-peer. The signaling traffic including SMS texts travels mostly unencrypted. Hence it's next to impossible to get a real SS7 Pcap log (require

The only remarkable thing about this NYT article is that it appeared at all. Read Charlse Murray "Coming Apart: The State of White America, 1960-2010".

The guy graduated from the same high-school a few years ahead of me (Moscow School 91). Me and my classmates had our ears full on how great he was from our homeroom teacher (yes, we had them in high-school). We were the bunch of pre-selecte

You can now download the .msi installer separately. Not sure it'll make Chrome happy. If you want the folder with Pcap example files, download Ubuntu version, and tar xvf it. It still has the examples folder inside.

by wirefloss 12y ago
It's not. I use Chrome all the time. It may be the zip file which spooks it. The zip contains an .msi file + a folder with pcap examples. If you wait a couple of hours, I'll put a separate .msi for download.

You can install from any folder, not only your home folder. Most package installations under Linux do require sudo privileges, so WireEdit is in no way unique. You password is SAFE. Really. The README is trying to be pretty upfront about wh

Yeh. I added it after the above question was asked. It was asked once, so it obviusly belongs to a FAQ.

One would think so. I'm certainly curious how much people use the tool. Wouldn't you? However in anticipation of security concerns the software doesn't gather any info, and makes no external connections. Auto-updates were im

You'd have to make an intelligent decision without access to full information. Isn't it often like that in life? As an engineer myself, I'd respect any decision you make.

by wirefloss 12y ago
I'm afraid there is no such thing. Even open source products have critical security bugs as you may very well know. If you do just a bit of research you can find who I am, and where I live. Code is not obfuscated. This is the best I c

I know. Sorry. Can't fix at the moment, will do later. Try to decrease the width of the browser, the video frame will decrease proportionally. Hope that helps.

Privacy policy added to the website FAQ. No data is gathered, no connections to the outside, except for a WINE repository for Ubuntu install.

by wirefloss 12y ago
Yes. Will take a while.

Added the stated above privacy policy to website FAQ.

No competition with WireShark is intended. WireEdit is a packet editor, not an analyzer. Can as easily edit a .txt Hex dump of a packet (not yet supported, but easy to do).

1) Have Ubuntu12.04x32 with hacked WINE working as well. Let me know if you need it. 2) No source indeed. 3) Privacy policy is stated in the EULA. I'll repeat it here: "No info is gathered, no connections to outside servers, exce

Say u have a single packet Pcap, with a multi-layer binary encoded packet. Click the button, get a complete editable stack graph pre-populated with values from the packet. Edit layers in concert (no annoying Copy/Paste between layers

Oh, well... no :(. The tool will be free, but it's not going to be open source. At least, not initially.

by wirefloss 12y ago
Yep, it's all there already :). See my comments about beta release above.

by wirefloss 12y ago
The complete Python based graphical scripting environment with import/edit of Pcap files and other goodies beta is scheduled for release in mid-to-end of July. If you want to be a beta tester, follow @wirefloss on twitter.
