If you create a custom SSL CA, you can add that CA to your ios devices and simulators, and they will trust your backend served with an SSL certificate issued by your custom CA, no app modifications needed. (On modern Android, this does not

That you (and many others apparently) had the impression that docker was cross platform says a lot about docker's markering, considering docker as far as I know it is a wrapper for a series of extremely linux-kernel-specific APIs. :-&#

Interesting concept but seems to require custom android-specific kernel modules (ashmem, binderfs), which means the android containers aren't very containerized but leak into the host kernel.

Java is terrible in this regard, as most file APIs use "java.lang.String" to identify the filename, which most of the time depends on the system property "file.encoding". With the result that there will be files that you

Does the assembly listing look sensible to anyone? It's been a long time but to me it looks like the disassembly of random bytes. "Jam rts"? "Nop $60"? "Brk brk sta Routine_0c86"? And a ton of raw un-assem

Even with TLS, that is usually handled by issuing STARTTLS on TCP port 25. I can't find anything in the RFCs mentioning server-to-server smtp delivery happening on anything but port 25? Do you have a reference for that? In fact, even t

If you want to deliver email to other domains then you need to connect to port 25 on the destination domain MX server. As far as I know, best practice for the other ports (465, 587) is to require authentication and to reject anonymous submi

Yeah nmap can often be used to fingerprint OS versions for those reasons. Way back in the days around y2k many network stacks had poor or no randomization of some parameters that produced some neat looking plots: https://lcamtuf.

Isn't that a little rich, considering a lot of GNU software itself started as a reimplementation of proprietary UNIX applications under a different license.

Experienced something similar here. NodeJS node-sass would crash with "rdrand failed". Super weird experience to have to apply a BIOS update to fix a node_modules build failure, but that's 2021.

Sounds very similar to the macOS 10.15.6 release, which had a horrible kernel memory leak. It was especially visible when running virtual machines. After a few hours the kernel memory pressure was so high that it would oom kill every usermo

Huh, it's quite surprising to see the concurrent runs at 02:00 for multiple instances. I guess this can cause quite a bit of weirdness if you use a spec like "5,17,32,47 * * * *" (to avoid the "thundering herd" of c

There are other options. For example, a full e2e encryption system where only the user owns the keys and nothing is scanned. This is already possible today with any general purpose computer.

2048-bit AES encryption? Considering AES usually is 128bit and sometimes 256bit, that's a tall order. In fact, can you even call it AES with a straight face if you are dealing with 2048bit keys? AFAIK the AES standard only covers 128&#

There is no way they could prove that an app HASN'T exploited this. They don't get source code, only compiled binaries, and with objective-c's extremely dynamic nature, any app could technically receive a HTTP response contai
