Binwalk 1.2.2 has just been released which introduces some useful new features: Binary diffing of an arbitrary number of files Heuristic compression/encryption analysis Identification of zlib compression streams (implemented via a plugin) Here are three thousand words to demonstrate these new features: Diffing two firmware headers Heuristic analysis of firmware… Continue reading
I’m Vegas-bound for my Black Hat briefing, full of all the wonderful security SNAFU’s we’ve come to expect from embedded devices. If you want to see some surveillance cameras getting hacked, stop by my talk, or find me in the DEFCON wireless village if you just want to drink beers… Continue reading
Registration is open for the July 2013 offering of our Embedded Device Exploitation 101 course. Only two days left for the early bird discount!
A common need that I have when reversing code is to find all possible code paths between two functions. Say for example that I’m looking for calls to dangerous functions, like sprintf, and I want to find all possible code paths that lead from my current function to sprintf. Manually… Continue reading
Binwalk 1.2 has been released, and in addition to the usual signature / speed improvements, it sports several new features: Recursive file scanning and extraction Entropy and strings analysis Plugin support Recursive Extraction Often files extracted by binwalk need to be further scanned / analyzed. This can now be automated… Continue reading
