E-ink displays are great, but working with them can still be a bit tricky if you aren’t an OEM. [Jasper Devreker] got his hands on three e-ink shelf displays to …read more Continue reading Reverse Engineering E-Ink Price Tags
There was a time when to take a British rail journey was to receive a ticket barely changed since Victorian times — a small cardboard rectangle printed with the destination …read more Continue reading Reverse Engineering British Rail Tickets
Sometimes, security mechanisms can be bypassed if you just do things slightly out of the ordinary. For instance, readout protection on microcontrollers is a given nowadays, to the point where …read more Continue reading Need To Dump A Protected STM32F0x? Use Your Pico!
The ChipWhisperer has been a breakthrough in hobbyist use of power analysis and glitching attacks on embedded hardware. If you own one, you surely have seen the IDC and SMA …read more Continue reading ChipWhisperer Adapter Helps Reverse-Engineer A Controversial Game Cartridge
Some pictures recently surfaced on social media, showing a small PCB tapped into four points on Cisco-branded boards. What is this about? A NSA backdoor so data can be exfiltrated …read more Continue reading Counterfeit Cisco Hardware Bypasses Security Checks With Modchips
Say you’re tinkering with a smart device powered by a CPU that uses Serial Wire Debug (SWD), but doesn’t mark the testpoints. Finding SWD on a board — how hard …read more Continue reading Find SWD Points Quickly, No Extra Hardware Needed
As simple as a processor’s instruction set may seem, especially in a 1978-era one like the Intel 8086, there is quite a bit going on to go from something like …read more Continue reading Reverse-Engineering the Conditional Jump Circuitry in the 8086 Processor
Whenever [Ken Shirriff] posts something, it ends up being a fascinating read. Usually it’s a piece of computer history, decapped and laid bare under his microscope where it undergoes reverse …read more Continue reading Inside Globus, a Soviet-Era Analog Space Computer
Developers update their software, sometimes they patch vulnerabilities.
Is it realistically possible to analyze the updated code (even if it’s closed source) to find the vulnerability that has been fixed (and still exist on all unpatched v… Continue reading Analyze fixed vulnerabilities in software updates
I am searching for the best way to merge two parts of software together, so it would be as hard as possible to separate them again through reverse engineering.
At the moment are both parts python, but open minded for anything else.
