End of an era: our CVSweb service turned 21 today, and was promptly retired. Our anoncvs was similarly shut down at the age of 21 two years ago, quietly.

Alan Turing died by suicide on 7 June 1954. Turing was convicted of gross indecency in 1952 and given a choice between imprisonment and probation. His probation would be conditional on his agreement to undergo hormonal physical changes designed to reduce his libido. Turing's conviction led to the removal of his security clearance and barred him from continuing with his consultancy for GCHQ. He was denied entry into the United States after his conviction.

So, my technical report on fuzzing CPython with fusil is almost done.

I'd really appreciate some help categorizing the found issues by relevance/severity/importance or any other name for impact.

Do you have the chops to help with that? And do you have time and interest? Please get in touch if so! And please boost if you can :)

A plot, some tables, links to the report and some discussion are available in this thread:

I tried to improve on @carrot_c4k3 's work to bypass Windows KASLR with a prefetch side-channel. I summarized my results in a new blog post, spiced up with some geek art:

Fucking stupid UI/UX choices.

Fortigate Firewall/Routers - All options for BGP/IPSEC are behind an "advanced options" user preference.... IT'S A FORTIFUCKINGROUTER the only people in this interface are advanced users.

PaloAlto XDR portal - Right-click for options on a line... fine... But wait, if you hold option/alt, you get even more options. I get the need to define which options are less common choices, but you should not be hiding things behind click-modifiers. The only people using the XDR interface will be advanced users. If a user doesn't have authorization for a command, then don't show it. If the option is destructive, then confirm with N number of dialogs. Also, the ENTIRE user interface is in italics.

Admin interfaces should never have hidden options.

@G33KatWork Ja bitte!
