Yeah, you can basically just unzip IPA files. Gaining them is hard though, I have a pathway if you are interested. But the Objective C code is actually compiled, and decompilation is a lot harder than with the JVM languages on Android. My n

You're right about the TPM, I won't get the key out of it. It's a special ASIC which doesn't even have the silicon gates to give me the key. But is the TPM doing matrix-mulitiplication at 1.3 Petaflops? Or are you just s

I think you are starting off from the perfect direction, being a forward-engineer first, and then a reverse-engineer. The community around Frida is a a) a bit small and b) a bit unorganized/shadowy. You cannot find that many resources,

Your second note is very interesting, having looked at the model myself this is very plausible. For models which use a lot of input nodes, a lot of "hidden layers" and in the end just perform a softmax this may get infeasible beca

But then you could compromise the GPU, probably :) Look at the bootloader, can you open a console? If not, can you desolder the flash and read the key? If not, can you access the bootloader when the flash is not detected anymore? ... Can yo

Thanks a lot :) My general writing style is directed mainly towards my non-technical colleagues, which I wish to inspire to learn about computers. This is no novelty, by far, it is a pretty standard use-case of Frida. But I think many peopl

Author here, no clue about homeomorphic (or whatever) encryption, what could certainly be done is some sort of encryption of the model into the inference engine. So e.g.: Apple CoreML issues a Public Key, the model is encrypted with that Pu

Author here, it would be nice to claim that I did this on purpose but I really did not know it was open source. I was rather interested in the process of instrumenting of TF to make this "attack" scalable to other apps.

I think the comment author means offering inference via Firebase, with the model never leaving the backend. This works, just like ChatGPT works, but has the downside of 1. You have to pay the computing for every inference 2. Your users can&

Hey, author here. I understand that its not very clear if the neural net and its weights & biases are considered as IP, I personally think that if some OpenAI employee just leaks GPT-4o it isn't magically public domain and everyone

Thanx! Yeah, they should :) Would love to do this with CoreML on Apple devices, but my newest iPhone is a 7. But if you subscribe, you may see me doing the same with a surveillance camera soon(isch) :)

Since MISRA is targetted at Automotive, as a software dev in the automotive space I would suggest adding the note that this is able to run on POSIX compliant OSes like QNX :) If you would like to chat, hit me up.

I did some research few weeks ago on the topic of database lookup timing side-channels, conclusion is: They don't really exist (for SELECT FROM WHERE commands atleast). https://altayakkus.substack.com/p/timing-side

Thing is businesses don't work like side-projects do. Qualcomm is more or less a research company, the main cost of their business is paying engineers to build their modems/SoCs/processors/whatever. They have been workin

I don't want to clickbait, but I went down a rabbithole of answering my question if the timing of a SQL query, comparing to a string, can be used as a side-channel to more efficiently guess that string. tl;dr is No. Enjoy :)
