Congratulations to the Test of Time Award winner Hovav Shacham for The Geometry of Innocent Flesh on the Bone: Return-into-libc without Function Calls (on the x86)
Dear RISC-V folks: By all means, please do standardize¹ 96 encodings for 2-byte instructions that mean “pop registers (including ra), add to sp, and return.” They will come in very handy.

The #classified payload of the #NROL91 launch a few hrs ago was observed by me near 4: 17 UTC from #Leiden, the Netherlands, in a partly cloudy sky, as a magn. +2.5 to +3 object.

It is neither “hypothetical” nor “imaginary” that HB 20 was specifically written to platform Holocaust denial. It’s in the legislative record!¹

@alexstamos Funny thing, the original mainframe Axess application (written in-house using SPIRES!¹) worked great through telnet. Then it was replaced as part of the great $20m PeopleSoft boondoggle.²

@veorq Heck, this attack was discussed in the BGLS'03 paper introducing aggregate signatures! And it had a long history by then in the context of multisignatures ...
@ekr____ This is really cool! It’s a nice computational complement to @estark37’s more philosophical PIR writeup.¹ (Also I like how it’s browser engineering that is driving PIR deployment.)

finally read the 3rd-party audit released by the Twitter whistleblower & it's not so much whistleblowing as... a list of known issues?
still, wld be great if every platform had to do one & release the findings!
that's one of my suggestions in here: https://t.co/DieWUt48Cl
From the incredibly talented Moon_Rabbit_Rising, some photos of Lindsay over the last few days.
Give her a follow on Instagram and check out even more pics!

We found a way to mount *remote timing* attacks on *constant-time* cryptographic code running on modern x86 processors. How is that possible? With #hertzbleed! Here is how it works (with @YingchenWang96).
