Known-Good MD5 Database

bgp4 writes "Have you ever examined a system you thought was broken into but you weren't sure? If only you had run an integrity verification program like osiris or Tripwire first you could have figured out what programs had been changed. In an effort to help out in the instances when you can't answer the question "what was this like before?" we've constructed a searchable database of MD5 and SHA-1 hashes for files in many standard operating systems. You can search using the filename or the checksum and see if you have a trojaned binary or an overactive imagination. Currently at knowngoods.org we have many FreeBSD, OS X, Linux, and Solaris installations checksummed and cataloged. If you have other programs or distributions you would like to see in the database, please let us know."

    I propose a similar database for feces, so that we might identify whether or not the feces we are having for dinner on a particular night is REALLY the feces we put in the fridge that morning. I hate having my fecal security compromised before dinner. It ruins my night.

    umm.. why the FUCK would anyone spend time recompiling /bin/ls? rebuilding the kernel and binaries that have security updates, I can understand, but just because you CAN make buildworld doesn't mean you should. Talk about a waste of time and energy.

  11. Texan Killed Friend Who Drank Last Cold Beer by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll
    BANDERA, Texas (Reuters) - A jury on Thursday handed a life prison sentence to a Texas man who shot and killed a longtime friend he accused of drinking the last beer in his refrigerator.

    Jurors deliberated for less than two hours before passing the sentence on Steven Brasher, 42, for the murder of Willie Lawson, 39, on Nov. 5 last year.

    "There was only two beers left, so I took one, and I told Willie not to take my last beer," Brasher said in a taped statement that was played during the trial.

    Testimony showed Brasher shot Lawson in the head with a pistol after the two began arguing over the missing beer. Brasher maintained the shooting was an accident.

  13. Jesus Christ would be a gun owner by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    How many firearms do you suppose that Jesus Christ owns? I would imagine that He has himself a nice porcelain Glock as well as several assault rifles and a bazooka. The Bible says that firearms are Christly so it is reasonable to assume that Jesus owns an arsenal. He could have used it 2,000 years ago and maybe he would not have died, but oh how the human race gained from his sacrifice! Charlton Heston should run for President, he would have my vote.
