BinData and Adobe Flash

Have I mentioned lately how much I heart BinData? It's the guts of my own PacketFu, and now I'm using it to build up an FLV file format parser. It's a thousand kinds of rad, or more succinctly, k-rad.

Now I just need a cutesy name for the eventual Flash file format fuzzer... Ooo, I think I have one!

At any rate, quick search indicates that Aaron and Pedram have already written a custom Flash fuzzer using PaiMei. So I doubt I'll come up with anything decent.... but I do have that ancient version of Flash lying around on the Wii, so you never know...

Hopefully, I've have mine finished up tomorrow. Go Ruby! Go BinData!

Criminals like Blackberry too

Saw an eWeek story this week about how bad guys heart BlackBerry for, surprise, the same reasons that good guys do. As far as I can tell, I'm the only one in my group, and possibly my whole office, with a Blackberry. It's nice to see this validation of its on board encryption versus the RCMP.

Take that, iSnobs.
