In this episode I (Chris), sorry no Omar, attempt some picoCTF (now CyLab) challenges. I picked the challenges randomly and ended up with a RSA (Small Trouble) and reverse engineering APK binary (Droids 4). Used the clanker (coding agent) to help with the APK challenge as I didn’t have a way to run the apk on my machine.
It was interesting to watch the clanker parse out the .so file. Have you used a clanker for cyber security? If so, what are your thoughts?
[Read More]In this episode we start writing a custom HTTP Server in C because Omar wanted to learn more about HTTP, servers, and low-level networking. We get a simple app that listens on a port and writes out to the command line what was sent to it. We also have a good discussion about C strings at 1:08:53.
Part 2, if it happens, we will add an HTTP response. We are not very consistent.
[Read More]In this episode Omar and I update PostCast so you can set the Slack channel instead of it being hardcoded. Progress at its finest.
We try out Figma for some design ideas, it goes OK. Then we try the design idea, find out we don’t like it and switch back to our original design. We also spend some more time figuring out how to do nested dialog calls in Fyne. It’s not intuitive, at least not to me.
[Read More]In this episode we solve the No Padding, No Problem @picoCTF challenge. It takes us a while as we try to remember how RSA works and figure out the weakness and formulas we need to us.
We leave our struggles in the video so people don’t feel like they are the only ones who can’t figure something out in 10 minutes. That said, you can watch the beginning then jump to 1:25:00 - where Omar figures out the formula to use.
[Read More]Our 100th episode! Not the episode we wanted as we forgot we needed to register with @linkedin to post messages as a company and then struggle to figure out how to handle multiple dialog forms in Fyne.
That said, a janky 100th episode fits with the theme of the SaturdayMP Show where we show our struggles and warts beside our successes.
Thank you to YouTube for letting me post these long videos for free. I know they make money of ads and other data, but it’s still nice of them.
