I'm proud to announce that I, through my company @magnetitesec.bsky.social, donated to the Redox OS project! If you're not familiar, Redox OS is a pure Rust Micro kernel based operating system. This donation allows them to sponsor one additional student for their Summer of Code!

I played @defcon.bsky.social CTF quals with @shellphish.bsky.social this year! I'm really impressed with the difficulty levels Nautilus Institute put forth. Making CTF challenges in the AI era has... special considerations... but they nailed it :-) Thanks to everyone involved for a great weekend!

There is a small bug in the signature verification of OTA packages in the Android Open Source Framework. Official builds doing normal double verification of packages are not vulnerable but OEMs and third party apps may be. Jérémy Jourdois explains it here: blog.quarkslab.com/aosp_ota_sig...

Digital vs film X-ray . Film offers higher resolution and better dynamic range with the same settings, but slightly longer exposure time (and more tedious image acquisition). Comes in handy when it comes to tiny electronics. Images of an Abbott Lingo continuous glucose monitor.

Nice! There's sadly a hugely tiny portion of comms on the Internet about exposing Rust to C (versus tons about wrapping C in Rust). I would love to see that change!

It is EXTREMELY cool to me that: * Use of Rust on Embedded platforms is such a high percentage of the ecosystem (16.8% bare metal, 12.9% with an OS) * The usage is increasing year over year Check out the survey results! blog.rust-lang.org/2025/02/13/2...

I don't think much of those points speak to Rust specifically, but rather IMHO some of these problems bleed into Rust too. Software as a profession has been a mess for decades, part of why I took the security research path.

I'm trying to think of a good way to flex Poststation as a demo for the embedded world booth. Does anyone have ideas of fun, interactive, and maybe mind bending things to have 8-16 independent MCUs do? I plan to fit it all into a eurorack case, as individual cards/modules.
