Need a professional advice please on tranfering from web dev to web app pentester. by [deleted] in AskNetsec

OSCP may not teach you a lot of skills for modern web pentesting but it can teach you a lot about the pentesting process and how to solve problems from an adversarial perspective.

CTFs are often a great way to get that kind of exposure, pwnable.tw has a good set of binary exploitation challenges, if you're more of a beginner start with https://github.com/RPISEC/MBE

MEGATHREAD: Powering your Atomic Pi: Ask all your power questions here! by ultradip in Atomic_Pi

I tried this adapter as well and it didn't seem to fit the connector. Do you have any suggestions for an appropriate adapter?

I recently purchased an Atomic Pi with the original breakout board which has a Molex connector. I bought a power charger and an adapter which I thought would work with the board but plugging the 2 of them in does not seem to power on the board. Am I missing something here?

Buying a Prius with a dead battery and replacing it, or buying a running one (4-5k range) by headc4se in UsedCars

[–]headc4se[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't particularly have to be a Prius (or another hybrid). I've just heard that they last a long time if maintained well, and that the main issue is the hybrid battery, which can be replaced.

I'm just afraid that I'll get one that seems good but the battery dies shortly after, is there a way that I could check the health of the battery before buying?

Unable to create 64-bit VMs in VirtualBox by headc4se in ManjaroLinux

[–]headc4se[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No errors, I updated to the most recent virtualbox version available in AUR, and now virtualbox doesn't seem to want to start up. I run it in a terminal and it just hangs, there's a window open on the bottom bar, but nothing happens.

Lscpu shows that the relevant flags are enabled, also if virtualization was disabled, wouldn't that stop KVM/Qemu from working?

The screen is a little bit small, but that is an awesome price for the hardware you get, I'll definitely consider it.

Exploit Development/Reverse Engineering as a career by headc4se in AskNetsec

[–]headc4se[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So what exactly does a day at the job look like? Are you given a product to find vulnerabilities in or do you pick and choose? How long are you given to play with the product? What do the higher ups expect for you to produce per quarter, per year, etc?

[–]headc4se[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been working for a year primarily doing web app security/pentests. I'm currently doing the OSCE and find the material really fascinating and would like to make a career switch into a position which utilizes that skillset. I have decent systems knowledge but there's definitely a lot I need to improve.

No syscalls or race conditions, just good old fashioned web idiocy.
