LEB128 can only trick you by at most one byte, (depending on the followup data). Bijou64 can consistently trick you by 8 bytes.
In a contrived example of a pbuf {length:int, payload:byte[1]}
LEB128 can trick you into reading the payload as part of the length, but then hopefully trigger a code check against invalid buffer read. (or one byte outside the struct if the payload is also malicious)
Binou64 can trick you to read 7 bytes into other memory, before any buffer size validation is done.
It's then not uncommon to log with a helpful; "buffer with length: 26624894573377(7 bytes of stolen data) is invalid", or just crash.
It's to the point that Bijou64_decode should perhaps take "end_adress" or "max_read" to catch this kind of attack.
(If you dont validate a malicious pbuf, you're in for a bad time regardless of integer format, but these int formats add their own way to trigger a buffer overrun despite a proper check.)
Crazy. On mobile it’s relatively easy to grab the playhead and scrub back and forth quickly over the full length of the video — this shows how the face movements are totally repetitive and constrained to a very limited space and variety.
This isn't even well done. I also opened it in a private browsing window, and the ad I was served was the most obviously AI-generated slop hawking some kind of health drink...that was clearly just a badly generated bottle of apple cider vinegar (text on the bottle was all mangled but it's exactly the kind my grocery store sells), and the "doctor" speaking barely synced up with his voice. Do people falling for these just have no sense of the uncanny valley?
I love freediving. But I almost blacked out and drowned once when I was doing it alone, hours hike away from anyone. Sure enough, I was using hyperventilation, which I didn't know back then was a big mistake.
When I think back about it, it's crazy how close I was to death. Learned my lesson that day. As she says in the article, don't do it alone.
I made it back to the surface and started feeling that familiar dizziness / light headed sensation. Not sure how to explain. Similar to when you stand up too quickly sometimes and feel like you're going to pass out.
I started swimming towards shore, pulled myself on the rocks there and rested. It felt weirdly wonderful. Warm rocks heating up my body, and a great sensation of calm. Only after a few minutes did I understand the gravity of what had just happened.
"This ticket was priced in GBP, not INR. Because the journey originated in Manchester, the fare is denominated in the currency of the origin country: the United Kingdom."
So: the currency is the one for the country of origin.
But that's what religion is, wisdom and nonsense mixed together by people who didn't yet have the benefit of the great filter to separate the wisdom from the nonsense: science.
The sheer number of annoying twats who tell me that The Book of I Ching holds great secrets has defnitely helped obscure any great secrets it contains.
This article is about ACT which borrows these techniques from the ancient stoics, but there is a lot of similarities between stoicism and buddhism, zen especially.
"Having been able to attend these events by hoarding airline miles and schmoozing certain cybersecurity vendors, Gal Nagli, Sam Curry, and I thought it would be fun to try and hack some of the different supporting websites for the Formula 1 events."
I know you're being facetious but I wanted to say, a friend of mine's kid recently got diagnosed with elevated lead levels in his blood, likely caused by eating contaminated dirt from their backyard. So... test before you try it, I guess?
My kids love to play in sand, and one time I found my kid playing with "rocks" in the sand before realizing it was a favorite shitting ground for the neighborhood cats
