"Google Project Zero's Windows bug-hunter and fuzz-boffin Tavis Ormandy has given the world an insight into how he works so fast: he works on Linux, and with the release of a personal project on GitHub, others can too.
Ormandy's project is to port Windows DLLs to Linux for his vuln tests (“So that's how he works so fast!” Penguinistas around the world are saying).
Typically self-effacing, Ormandy made this simple announcement on Twitter......
Ormandy's reason for the project is to let loose fuzzing against Windows-based software, using Linux platforms.
“The intention is to allow scalable and efficient fuzzing of self-contained Windows libraries on Linux. Good candidates might be video codecs, decompression libraries, virus scanners, image decoders, and so on,” he writes.
Efficiency is the key, with Ormandy writing that on Windows, it's all too slow."
What's got a vast attack surface and runs on Linux? Windows Defender, of course • The Register[^]

If this ever becomes more than a research project, you can bet Microsoft will have something to say about it.

You mean like what they've done over the last 20+ years with WINE?

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Samsung S8 'eye security' fooled by photo - BBC News[^]
I always remember a long time ago Mythbusters set out to test fingerprint authentication as found on anything from laptops to bank vaults. To prep for the feature they had a range of devices that offered fingerprint authentication all the way up to very expensive vaults and they also had a range of possible solutions to try. No doubt they were planning on starting with the more basic bits of kit and the most basic tools to circumvent and they'd get more and more sophisticated with their tools until the device was cracked. They would then move up to the next more secure device and repeat the process.
The simplest way they had to beat the system was a photocopy\printout of a fingerprint. The most complex involved a finger modelled in ballistic gel which matches the conductivity of human skin, and they had a mechanism to ensure the gel was also heated to body temperature. They basically tried to make the most realistic finger they could.
The whole bit was a damp squib though as the result was that the most basic of methods (a printout of a fingerprint) cracked the most advanced of the devices (the professional safe).
It's like the security industry is constantly looking for the next "big thing" and trying all these gimmicks and it's as if the gimmick is the most important thing....even more important than if the method actually works, and the end result is that things are getting less secure, not more.

Well, at least the battery didn't catch fire.
Are people really paying £800 for these?

It cost no more than £650 - and the eye photo is free

Well, if it's down to 6.5 times what I paid for my 'phone, I have to admit it starts to sound a little tempting.

I think a lot of that is probably implementation - they also employ the cheapest workers they can to produce the software, and I suspect that means they get their code from questions in QA...

If they get their code from questions in QA is not what worries me.
I think it is worst if they get the code just from somewhere in the net. At least here there still is a % of people really willing to help that do know what they say.

There is a way to destroy the reputation of every mobile phone that does eye recognition. Let its camera face another phone (of the same model) with your eye photo, taken on the same phone.
Now all outcomes fall in one category:
- eye recognition sucks,
- display sucks,
- camera sucks.
