  1. Off topic but good film about poaching... on Using Raspberry Pi and iOS App To Catch Rhino Poachers · · Score: 1

    'The Naked Prey' old film but is on netflix. Pretty good and some good documentary sections. (Elephants getting shot is a bit graphic!)

    Nice, I noticed it myself :-)
    Good luck with 127.0.0.1, I've heard it can be difficult to both attack that box and defend your own at the same time!

    So here's the commited metasploit module: ubisoft_uplay_cmd_exec.rb And the POC working in a video This is now fixed in version 2.0.4 (recently released and auto updates uplay)

  4. Re:My eyes! The goggles do nothing! on Nmap 6 Released Featuring Improved Scripting, Full IPv6 Support · · Score: 2

    There's such thing as great coders and also such thing as great developers, but rarely, if ever, the both together.

  5. BT5r2 doesn't have deb build yet - it's here on Nmap 6 Released Featuring Improved Scripting, Full IPv6 Support · · Score: 3, Informative

    Shameful plug here guys.
    I've compiled the sources earlier this morning into deb packages for those that want to play with it without building from source (building from source will confuse the system and you might not get updates). Both i386 and amd64 versions working on BT5 r2 here. http://www.phillips321.co.uk/2012/05/22/creating-a-debian-package-from-source-checkinstall/

  8. Re:WEP on The Wi-Fi Hacking Neighbor From Hell · · Score: 1
    Thankgod someone here understands the arty of wifi cracking.
    But from the looks of things this guy is a douchbag, if he is dumb enough to get caught i also guess he was dumb enough to use a replay attack in order to gather enough IVs. I guess he was also dump enough to connect to the network with his hardware MAC address rather than a cloned address from the target network. I guess his hostname was also something dumb like "BarrysLaptop".

    For those out there wishing to do this take precaution!
    • Use bootable usb stick for all hacking (and quickly swallow if feds show up)
    • When sniffing for WEP IVs or WPA handshake do so without inbjectng traffic
    • Change mac address to one that target network is already using
    • Change hostname to match targets machine
    • If using backtrack then ensure HTTP get requests match that of the targets machine: if target use Internet explorer and all your requests come from Firefox on a linux host it's pretty obvious is was spoofed.
    • ALL IN ALL DONT DO IT! If you have a problem with the neighbour just speak to him like a normal human being over a cold can of beer
  9. Re:2 weeks for a WEP? on The Wi-Fi Hacking Neighbor From Hell · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Ummm, WEP requires enough IVs to crack, either through sniffing the network and capturing IVs (slowly) or by using a replay attack against the router in order to massively speed up the IV collection process.
    WPA on the otherhand can be performed offline once the 4 way handshake as been captured.... (Which can be optained by waiting for a valid client to connect or by de-authing the clients and then capturing the handshake once they reconnect)

  13. Re:Another Linux admin with a superiority complex. on Why You Shouldn't Reboot Unix Servers · · Score: 1

    And boom there it is, if you don't need it why is it running?

    You lost me pretty early on, i think after the 2 words "I work". What is this "work" thing you are on about? Fair play though, this would take a considerable amount of effort and time and i doubt anyone in the open source world would benefit from this unfortunately, please correct me if i'm wrong and provide an example of how an ATC system could be used 'at home'

  22. Re:Great PoE on Russian Hacker Selling 1.5M Facebook Accounts · · Score: 4, Funny

    The wonderful thing about his product though, is that he can keep selling it even after he has sold it.

    He doesn't have 1.5 million accounts to sell once, he has 1.5 million accounts to sell over and over and over. He may only be able to get $50k for the lot, but he can sell them all a dozen times. Depending on if they catch him or not, and how effective they are at getting people to change their passwords (the only way to make the accounts worthless), this guy could make half a million dollars or more pretty easily.

    Not if I'm the first to buy them and change the passwords on the accounts....
