junior infosec: how could you even consider plugging in an SD card you found on the ground, it could be malicious!

senior infosec: if they can root my macbook m3 from plugging in an SD card then they deserve to run whatever the hell they want

@0xabad1dea I'd be really impressed by an SD card doing that! :D
@jorin @0xabad1dea If the reader is USB, this is fairly unlikely. If the reader is connected in a more direct way (SDIO), it's not that far-fetched (you can connect a lot of through SDIO; quite a few tablets have WiFi cards on the SDIO bus).
@jernej__s @jorin @0xabad1dea Or the much newer SD Express. It’s basically NVMe in the form of an SD card. Readers are about as rare as Thunderbolt thumb drives, though.
@bob_zim @jorin @0xabad1dea I've yet to see a SDExpress card or reader. SDIO readers at least used to be very common in laptops.
@jernej__s
Looks like SD Express is not only NVMe but also PCIe! Time to find some gear and port https://github.com/carmaa/inception

@ge0rg @bob_zim @jorin @0xabad1dea Yes, NVMe is PCIe.
