Just dropped: my RECON 2025 talk on Rust library recognition in malware! 🦀

I present RIFT—a tool that tackles one of the trickier problems in modern malware analysis, rust library recognition in malicious software.

Worth a watch if you're into RE or malware research.

Hello! Hello. It's #nakeddiefriday today, and I wanted to show you one of the older works. This is an automotive ASIC fabbed for Toyota, part number DF028. I do not know the function of this particular device.

My employer is doing a CTF and a lot of the remaining challenges involve #reverseengineering binaries. Any suggestions on a crash course I can put myself through to try and get some of these flags? The binaries are all Linux.

And hey, since the weather is absolutely abysmal today, I will treat you to another die shot as an extension of #nakeddiefriday.

This is КР1810ВМ86, an otherwise identical clone of Intel 8086 made by Soviets at an unknown plant.

The 8086 was extensively reverse-engineered by @kenshirriff -- give his blog a read!

🦀 I'm excited to announce that I am starting a training firm, @decoderloop, focused on providing Rust Reverse Engineering training! https://decoderloop.com/

The tools, techniques, and resources that reverse engineers have were built for the era of C. Meanwhile, malware authors and software developers alike are rapidly switching to modern programming languages such as Rust. Decoder Loop is here to fill the knowledge gap and level the playing field, for reverse engineers facing modern binaries.

We hope to come to a conference near you, next year. If you'd like to stay notified on upcoming trainings: follow us at @decoderloop, or sign up on our mailing list at https://decoderloop.com/contact/#training-signup-form

I'll also be at @ringzer0 COUNTERMEASURE on November 7 in Ottawa, Canada, giving a Rust RE focused workshop! Come say hi if you're there, and let's chat Rust RE!

Hi there! This is #nakeddiefriday again!

Today I'd like to present you one of frequent sources of pain for C64 owners, the infamous PLA. This is MOS 7700R2. They failed way too often, and considering this is custom silicon, the only option was to get another one of the same.

Many thanks to @root42 for providing this sample!
