Donated to the PCILeech project today.
It is amazing how easy dma stuff is now. And how cheap. I tooted some appreciaation earlier in the week, but this afternoon I had some first success against an actual research target. The victim does a pretty good job of locking things down, but DMA attacks are really fun when they work.
Thanks to @UlfFrisk, and of course to the videogame cheating community (like 99.5% of the tutorials on flashing and using pcileech have "setting up your aimboat" as the last step, lulz).
I'm not a gamer, but I kinda appreciate that there is a weird community of people doing DMA attacks in order to 'win' at shooters or whatever. They certainly make the hardware cost a lot less...
