Hackers rejoice! We are releasing the Phrack 71 PDF for you today! Don't forget this year is Phrack's 40th anniversary release! Send in your contribution and be part of this historical issue! The CFP is still open, you can find it and the PDF link at phrack.org

My initial data-bouncing code rewritten in Go is in GitHub. It barely counts as Alpha code right now but I have plans to improve it and add a GUI. github.com/N1ckDunn/Int...

Amazing work.

My ggrandfather was a decorated war hero in WWI-- He firmly believed that would save him when the nazis came for the other jews. He was wrong, and he ended up in the camps. Luckily, his children had all gone into hiding by that time, and survived.

Project Zero is hiring 🎉 Please share with anyone you think would be great for the team www.google.com/about/career...

SE Radio 650: Robert Seacord on What’s New in the C Programming Language se-radio.net se-radio.net/2025/01/se-r... Have a listen!

One of the finest hackers & humans to ever hack the planet needs our help. Marc Rogers (@marcwrogers on the other site) is lucky to be alive & we are luckier to be able to help him. Donate if you can, and please *share* to spread the word. gofund.me/27112e30

I'm really proud to present my fully documented source code for #Elite on the #Commodore64. This is the original 1985 source, recently released by Ian Bell, with every single line of code explained. It’s a thing of beauty. Enjoy! github.com/markmoxon/el... #retrocomputing #retrogaming #8bit #c64

I’ve received the perfect Christmas gift which means I can play Manic Miner while Christmas dinner is in the oven.

You will be visited by three spirits

I decided to put together a starter pack of oldskool hacker and/or hacker-adjacent folks you may want to follow (Or, y'know, maybe you want to block them all, what do I know? You do you, homeslice.) go.bsky.app/HQWqtno

For anyone who didn’t know, @nostarchpress.bsky.social are now on Bluesky.

We updated our CFP for Phrack 72! The deadline is now April 1st 2025. Check the site for specifics on how to contribute, as well as some inspiration! We also posted a link to purchase physical copies of Phrack 71, and a donation link too. Enjoy! phrack.org

For anyone who attended my talk at @bsideslondon.bsky.social yesterday on Using The OWASP Top 10 to Save the Astronauts from HAL, I've put the slides online. github.com/N1ckDunn/OWA...

For anyone who's attending @bsideslondon.bsky.social tomorrow, I'll be speaking at 10:00, and dragging some interesting sci-fi concepts into mundane reality when I discuss "Using the OWASP Top 10 to Save the Astronauts from HAL".

I've just rewritten ActiveScan++ in Java to lay the foundation for some major enhancements. It's not in the BApp store yet but if you'd like to take it for a spin you can grab it here: github.com/albinowax/Ac...

I love a good wristwatch.

While everyone waits for the next @bsideslondon.bsky.social, here are my slides from the previous event. This isn't entirely for self-promotion 😆, it's also because of the lack of resources out there for SOSL injection Apex and Java code for Salesforce. github.com/N1ckDunn/SOS...

In a couple of weeks I'll be speaking at @bsideslondon.bsky.social on the subject of Using the OWASP Top 10 to Save the Astronauts from HAL. After the con, I'll publish the slides for anyone interested in using secure software development to prevent a fictional AI from killing fictional astronauts.
