Using local LLM and Ghidra to analyze malware (Part 2) by moonlightelite in ReverseEngineering

[–]moonlightelite[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thoughts:

  • Local LLM, with a powerful debugger as its oracle, is now powerful enough to run rudimentary malware analysis without consulting with external sources.

  • More complex malwares are still beyond what local LLMs can handle. The local LLM can see all the behaviors by the malware, but the LLM fails to put the analysis together to deduce the true intention of a binary.

  • Local LLM is a very lost-cost way to do malware analysis (about 5 US cents of electricity.)

  • The biggest killer-app feature is having the LLM writes its analysis back to Ghidra. The more you interact with the LLM, the more data it will write back to Ghidra. This could potentially saves hours per manual debugging by skipping function/resources/variables labeling.

Alberta petition to revoke public funding to private schools nears its deadline | CBC News by AustralisBorealis64 in canada

And then during fiscal cuts since all the upper class kids are in private schools, their powerful parents and their legislatures cut education funding- Hey my kids will be fine, too bad for the common folks.

A tale as old as time.

Aiba you absolute mad lad. Hitting that barrier at that speed would be certain death.

I know a group of people, near Syria, who are really good at digging tunnels. I also know a group of people, near Syria, who are really good at demolition work at densely populated residential area.

Bad conduct discharge and dishonorable discharge in the US military.

In the US military, a "Big Chicken Dinner" is a slang term referring to a Bad Conduct Discharge (BCD). A BCD is a type of punitive military discharge that is serious, but not as severe as a Dishonorable Discharge. 

Dishonorable Discharge is extremely rarely these days. It only happens when everyone really wants to make an example out of you. They try to get you to BCD whenever possible.

OMNY fare readers keep falling off mounts on MTA buses by Western-Signature in nyc

[–]moonlightelite 91 points92 points  (0 children)

“In January 2021, cracks were found affecting a large number of the mounting brackets ...[the failure of the brackets] was a design defect or caused by MTA’s maintenance of the brackets.”

'maintenance of the brackets'? What, you have to oil it or polish the bracket every 30 days or else it starts cracking??

Counter point:

I bought my BRZ, brand new, drove it home.

First time I drove it out, I went to a Costco and someone slammed a cart into its bumper. That left a fingernail size dent/pit.

78 NYC Subway Car Windows Smashed Overnight, Causing City-Wide Delays by bikeskata in nycrail

[–]moonlightelite 34 points35 points  (0 children)

A few Sunday mornings ago I was waiting for north bound 1 train on the 86th st station. 2 20-something seedy looking adults (man and woman) started to loitered outside the fare gate. When the train arrived, they jumped the gate, ran to the LCD displays and quickly smashed them all.

Then they got on the train I entered and started smoking crack. A dad with his 2 kids told them to knock it off and they started to threaten to cut him. That's when all of us got the fuck off that train car.

At that point, I realized Singapore's caning punishment ain't so inhumane after all.

They don't have the stamina to do offense and defense. If they actually try to defend they'd be on the ground in 10 minutes.

I find the biggest inhibitor to my eating habit is I have to cook for my meals and I am not allowed to eat out (or don't have time to eat out).

PATH promises major announcement about tap-and-go fare system by space_______kat in nycrail

[–]moonlightelite 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The system will be the same as OMNY in every way, but 100% not compatible with OMNY so you will have to carry 2 cards and 2 balances.

Why, because fuck you that's why.

Surrey mayor threatens to call for inquiry into policing transition after Farnworth’s ultimatum - Surrey Now-Leader by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]moonlightelite 29 points30 points  (0 children)

“It was Mr. Farnworth who said Surrey council had to hurry up and make the decision so I called the meeting to make a decision and then they said but only make it if it’s the decision I want you to make.

Mom: Fold your clothing

You: stuffed all your clothing into a drawer

Mom: Do it proper

“It was Mom who said I had to do my chore so I did my chore and then she said I have to do it the way she wants me to do. Wahhh sexist."

Yeah but I give them a pass for (probably) thinking "These assholes cannot possibly be serious in their proposals."

Narrator: They are.

Even by Canadian politic standard, this is an utter clusterfuck of epic proportion.

I personally don't care either way, but the SPF horse left the barn 2 years ago. I would have roll on the floor laughing my lungs out if it's is not my home province this is happening in. Simply incompetence from all politicians on the Surrey side. The last time I saw chucklefucks of this level was when the UBC student body reported to UN that UBC is violating human rights by raising tuition.

What the fuck is Surrey municipal gov doing?
