Last day of BGGP6 today!

We are excited to announce the CFP for the next tmp.0ut Volume 5! tmpout.sh/blog/vol5-cf...

cannot believe that the US kidnapped a foreign president and is holding him in the jail behind the Micro Center

Another conflict, another claim of wartime cyber capability being used. I really need you all to understand how unlikely it is that cyber-enabled power outage is going to be used in a conflict like this. Let me walk you through this...

"The lights of Caracas were largely turned off, due to a certain expertise that we have" It's honestly not particularly hard to attack critical infra, but if you do, you're just as bad if not worse than the people who ransomware hospitals.

Part 1 of my #BGGP6 writeup about nasm's most mysterious object file format, RDOFF. n0.lol/bggp6-rdoff/

Today I got RDOFF (.rdf) files working in nasm 2.15. I wrote my own lib bc nasm didn't generate properly. Also patched the 32-bit loader in `rdx` with mmap tricks (shoutout ixi). An executable RDOFF has likely never run on a 64 bit system before today. Writeup soon! #BGGP6

Doing this again! This time I am looking into resurrecting an old object file format using scapy, and will probably look at some more entries for #BGGP6 . If you're working on any cool file stuff or just want to chat, come thru!

Doing this now! Come hang Link discord.gg/Hc6TbXrS

This weekend I'm thinking about chilling in the @binary.golf discord voice chat and working on some ideas for #BGGP6 if anyone else wants to play with weirdo files or just hang.

It's not the destination, it's the journey.

I've never been prouder of @2600.com and speaking at @hope.net than now. 2600 has apparently been told HOPE can't return to St. John's University - allegedly because some attendees last year were ""too anti-police."" Censorship won't stop the signal - especially not 2600 Hz

the goal of posting is to convey every possible thought until you can communicate exclusively via quoting your own posts

I'm running for Senate. Fuck it

So it turns out... the US air travel system was incredibly, deeply dependent on federal funding to just run day-to-day all this time, to the benefit of private airline shareholders, when everyone thinks that state-run trains are leeching off the government. Weird!

**patches the compare instruction** "The subtle art of nop giving a fuck"

Chatting about Ouija boards this Halloween and was reminded of the CSS animated ANSI art Ouija board I made for the last episode of ThugCrowd. The font I designed for this was reused for the original @tmpout.sh logo too! I just expanded some glyphs to make them line up better.

github.com/xero/text0wn... the "BLOCKTOBER" release brings new plain text file export, fixes for tool context switching and move mode, html minification, new selection tool keyboard features, and finally we've updated to vitest v4 while optimizing the tests for better memory usage! 🎃

tea time

Something that surprised me a little (but made sense in retrospect) was that core dump files are ELFs

The HPE NonStop Itanium and amd64 systems use them for their "Guardian" OS and the "OSS" layer on top of that, They also added the extra vendor/os fields in the wrong spots for some of the enums

What's the most unexpected or interesting place you have seen the ELF format used? Especially non-Linux use cases (eg Firehose programmers)

Binary Golf Grand Prix 6 begins now! #BGGP6 theme: "Recycle" Challenge Announcement: binary.golf/6

Today is another good reminder of @k8em0.bsky.social's iconic line: We have an internet built on rock n roll and silly string.

#BGGP6 is off to a great start! We got 4 entries in the first 24 hours (as many entries as all of BGGP1!). In the lead so far by total score is mauke, who made a 55 byte 4-way polyglot that is also a palindrome (pictured). See all verified entries here: github.com/binarygolf/B...

The Sixth Annual Binary Golf Grand Prix #BGGP6 will start Friday 10/17!!! @binary.golf Fall/Winter 2025

There's a sick linenoise article by @there.is.no.aarch64.mov in @phrack.org 71 called "Learning An ISA By Force Of Will", where ixi goes from unknown binary blob, to manual instruction decoding, to figuring out control flow, and gives a critique of the RE'd ISA. phrack.org/issues/71/3#...

Wrote a trigger for CVE-2025-38494/5 (an integer underflow in the HID subsystem) that leaks 64 KB of OOB memory over USB. Still works on Pixels and Ubuntus (but the bug is fixed in stable kernels). github.com/xairy/kernel...

Are there any decent gameboy rom plugins for binja that aren't in the plugin store? Neither one on there really works that well for even basic disassembly.

Cleaning up the decompilation of a firmware binary can be such a meditative activity. Delicately defining data, fixing misidentified strings and pointers, undefining erronous functions and types, finding fun features and quirks. It's like a little zen garden to tend to.

This is a test. Trying to tune my notifs. Please reply with something that made you smile recently!!
