Exploiting format strings @ wu-ftpd 2.6.0 @ Ubuntu 10.04.03 LTS

Some time ago I read this post the-shellcoders-handbook-second-edition at xorl's blog. I decided to get a copy of the book and learn from it as much as I could. However, the book is a bit outdated (as xorl states also in aforementioned post) - it was published in 2006/07. For example in chapter 4 (dealing with format strings exploitation) there is a thorough example of how to perform an attack on wu-ftpd version 2.6.0. A bit excited, I set on working with it. And the "outdatedness" suddenly got in my way...

Windows minifilters part 2 @ securitymag

Windows minifilters part 1 @ hakin9

Few months ago I had an opportunity to present some material about Windows' filesystem minifilters in online magazine hakin9. I wrote two articles, published in two succeeding editions (February and March 2011). Funny though, right after 02-2011 the magazine changed it's name from hakin9 into securitymag. Still, that was pretty much the same.
Unfortunately, it was written for polish readers, in polish language.

TwiLPaper - Twitter Live Wallpaper

Moving on from SeventhGate... straight to Android platform. Published on market. The thing is I have two versions of the app. However, Google it it's Google-ness does not allow me, a programmer from Poland, make pennies in Poland. Of course, I can easily spend money, but not earn, God forbid :) So, as for now, only free version is available. Pro version with additional few options, is still sitting on my HD, waiting for better times.
So here it is: TwiLPaper
Works on all Samsung devices I could test, up to Galaxy S II (nice beast by the way, isn't it).

BTW, I plan to make a short tutorial how to decompile apps from Android Market, basing on my own app, which is not obfuscated :)

Just to keep things organized and up-to-date: my first project shown to public. Of course, it may crash, it may not work properly. Here it is, published some time ago: http://seventhgate.codeplex.com/
