Just another Linux hacker
Constantly struggling to hide my affection of hacker subculture and memes behind the veil of corporate professionalism.
Father of 2, master of none.
Interested in #MotorSport, #F1, #VintageCars, #VideoGames, #InfoSec, #OpenHAB, #HomeAutomation, #Linux, #OSS.
Thoughts and opinions are my own.
I am not a bot (that I'm aware of).
I wrote a thing about a thing.
Specifically, Finding Vulnerabilities with Crassus – A Case Study with ESET.
I created Crassus on a whim a few years ago, and it's interesting to see that it still can find things.
It's also interesting (disappointing) that reporting vulnerabilities to vendors is still as painful as ever.

"Many a frustrated user has sworn they'll launch Microsoft Outlook into space, but NASA has actually done it – on a journey around the Moon, where it's now causing problems for astronauts."
I know not everyone loves The Register, but the above paragraph is an example of why I've kept reading them for decades.

LinkedIn Is Illegally Searching Your Computer. Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history https://browsergate.eu/
Is there anything Microsoft is not doing these days?
Microsoft is running one of the largest corporate espionage operations in modern history. Every time any of LinkedIn’s one billion users visits linkedin.com, hidden code searches their computer for installed software, collects the results, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers and to third-party companies including an American-Israeli cybersecurity firm. The user is never asked. Never told. LinkedIn’s privacy policy does not mention it. Because LinkedIn knows each user’s real name, employer, and job title, it is not searching anonymous visitors. It is searching identified people at identified companies. Millions of companies. Every day. All over the world.
OK. This is cool. Keeping this open in a tab until they’re back.
