Interesting read on how GTA Online player t0st got elbow deep into disassembling GTA Online to fix its poor loading times. After taking a minute to load the common resources used for both story and online modes (which is near on par with high-end PCs) GTA decides to max out a… » Posted by | bram.us

If you’re reading this page, chances are that you’re already well aware that E.T. for the Atari 2600 is one of the most reviled games ever made. I never understood why. As a child, it was one of my favorite games. I still think it’s a good game. Apparently, I’m not alone. On this page I’m going to briefly explore why people hate E.T., and how the game can be fixed. ...

Primero digamos que en este post vamos a tocar los temas de las APKs de Android, que es el formato utilizado para empaquetar las aplicaciones. También vamos a tocar Metasploit, una gran herramienta para los pentesters, esta herramienta se basa en módulos los cuales permiten hacer (sobre todo intentos) de explotación de sistemas, con los módulos de exploit que cuenta la herramienta, o módulos auxiliares. Usaremos dos de las herramientas con las que cuenta metasploit: msfvenom (para generar payloads, dando la posibilidad de pasarlos por un encoder) y msfconsole (consola de comandos para hacer uso de exploits, modulos auxiliares…). Vamos a realizar un sencillo proceso de Ingeniería inversa en android, pero bastante sencillo. ...

IBM era el dueño y señor de los bits y los bytes a principios de los 80. En aquella época Apple, Microsoft y los fabricantes de aquellos legendarios ordenadores de 8 bits también despuntaban, pero todo daba igual: el gigante azul dominaba con mano firme la informática empresarial, y para muestra un botón: el PC no se llamaba PC. Se llamaba IBM PC. » Javier Pastor | xataka.com

I extracted the certificate from the SuperFish adware and cracked the password (”komodia”) that encrypted it. I discuss how down below. The consequence is that I can intercept the encrypted communications of SuperFish’s victims (people with Lenovo laptops) while hanging out near them at a cafe wifi hotspot. Note: this is probably trafficking in illegal access devices under the proposed revisions to the CFAA, so get it now before they change the law. ...

Even though it is the Apple II version written in 6502 assembly language, it was a pleasant experience to dive in the code of that mythical game: As usual there were many fascinating sofware wizardries to discover. The Apple II apparent poor environment for game programming was actually ground to unmatched innovation and creativity : From self-modifying code, in-house bootloader, clever floppy disc format to skewing lookup tables: Prince Of Persia features engineering treasures in every modules. ...

Everything described here is based on a project I completed in early 2011, which was originally started several years earlier. While attending CanSecWest in 2009, Anibal Sacco and Alfredo Ortega from Core Security did a presentation on ’Persistent BIOS Infection’ where they demonstrated how it was possible to patch the BIOS to do some nasty/awesome things. Their Phrack write-up is here: http://www.phrack.com/issues.html?issue=66&id=7. At the time this seemed really cool, but I never ended up getting the chance to try it out. A year later I needed to do a term project for school, so I decided to revisit BIOS hacking, and implement some of it myself. ...
