Using a GPG Keychain to encrypt emails and any text messages

-

One of the most straightforward methods for integrating PGP keys with e-mails is with Apple e-mail using GPG Keychain. You just put in your e-mail, generate a key and add your e-mail as well as a password.

Now whenever you want to send a message you just tell the program to encrypt with the key of your choosing and you get the results below.


Here is a test message.


I select to use a key I named 'newkey'.

Here is the message above encrypted with the PGP key.


Now with the key configured to my e-mail all I have to do is select and choose to decrypt.

Automated Exploitation of a Bluetooth vulnerability that leads to 0-click code execution

This blog post covers an interesting vulnerability that was just discovered earlier this year and an open source free tool that was created to automate testing for this vulnerability in Bluetooth devices.  I will preface this with the warning that this is of course done in my personal testing lab environment with my own devices for learning and demonstration purposes. I am in no way encouraging that these tools, snippets of code or techniques be used maliciously as there can be very serious legal consequences for those that use these hacking tricks nefariously. However, in a personal testing lab environment I think this is great for learning and allows someone to quickly be able to confirm or deny if their personal devices are truly standing up to the Bluetooth CVE of CVE-2023-45866 . CVE-2023-45866 is described as an issue where the " Bluetooth HID Hosts in BlueZ may permit an unauthenticated Peripheral role HID Device to initiate and establish an encrypted connection, and accept...

Raspberry Pi WiFi Honeypot 🍯

This was a fun project to work on and build out. I learned a few new interesting tricks along the way. I started with this tutorial from 2013 by Andy Smith . However, a few things have changed with hostapd that I had to figure out through debugging. Also, the configuration of the nginx server as well as dnsmasq were slightly different for me using the new Raspbian Buster for Raspberry Pi 4.  This should save you some time if you follow my trick tips later on in the article that I found by searching through various message boards and googling error messages as I did debugging to get this working properly. I have gone over setting up nginx servers in previous articles so if you need help with getting started these may be helpful. So first things first. I started with a canakit and assembled the raspberry pi with the appropriate heat sinks and a little fan set to a standard speed. The speed is adjusted by how you install the wiring. If you haven't done this before you can follow the ...
