  1. 🎩✨ Oh, look! Yet another ambitious #coder dazzled by the dazzling #complexity of the #JVM, only to be crushed by "weird" #exceptions. Apparently, Java's #decompiling sorcery isn't as straightforward as waving a wand 🪄. Who could have possibly predicted that? 🙄

  2. does anyone know how i might go about exporting const data (like some array/structures) from a binary using DWARF info?

    Ghidra can see the data and decode the types perfectly, but doesn't have a mechanism for exporting it as C code.

    I started playing with pyelftools but it seems like I'd need to write a whole lot of code for this, so im hoping someone else has already solved it...

  3. Trying to fix a Koonlung K1S, a probably long-term project. [plus downloads]
    The Koonlung K1S is a very nice dashcam, with GPS, emergency button and HD recording and everything is made quite small. The HD video has a bit of a low bit rate, but it’s still not bad. That said, it became a piece of rubbish. No matter what kind of SD card is inserted, the software locks up…

  4. No human made system can stand the test of time, no matter how many times you may patch it - word to US legislature.

    Regarding #hardware, it's time to demand #openfirmware from #manufacturers. It might mean giving extra playing cards to #hackers, but they can already read #assembly and have no problem #decompiling or #debugging their way to #vulnerabilities.

    It's a good idea to start with all #x86 chips that are #EOL, which should be refurbished with open firmware.

  6. Wanna get #pwned by #decompiling a malicious Android app?
    👉 Use JEB < 4.19.1 😉

    Fascinating write-up on how they found out why JEB runs code from inside the app as su on the host!

  7. Okay, putting up with 's warts is slowly proving to be a win. It seems that I can emulate a CPU in both directions with only a little extra effort. I hope.

    This would put the "reverse" into .
