After 6 months of thinking about the topic, I dove back into automated open-source #malware analysis this weekend.
The result is the culmination of the lessons I learned building #malcontent: context and maintainability are everything. So I've built something smarter using language ASTs for source, Radare2 for RE, hierarchical traits, and ML for criticality.
#Rust has been an adventure, but a good one. More to share eventually...

Personally, I love this latest viral jab at America's worst president. Inspired by a recent post, I've created tshirt and sticker designs to keep this hilarious meme going.

A quotation from Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr.
That is what you have to expect if you invent anything that puts an old machine out of fashion, or solve a problem that has puzzled all the world up to your time. There never was a religion founded but its Messiah was called a crank. There never was an idea started that woke up men out of their stupid indifference but its originator was spoken of as a crank.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809-1894) American poet, essayist, scholar
Article (1890-06), “Over the Teacups,” No. 7, Atlantic Monthly, Vol. 66

Yes, #malcontent detected all iterations of the "ultralytics" supply-chain attack. The attackers weren't trying hard to be sneaky, so anyone looking should have detected it, but few are. #supplychainsecurity
Over the last nine months, I've been working on a tool named #malcontent to detect when #malware is inserted into open-source software. While it is far from finished, we released v1.4.0 today, and it's the first release I am genuinely proud of: https://github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent/releases/tag/v1.4.0
Here's a view of the new UI, shown inspecting the most recent supply-chain attack in the Lottie video player library. Each line prefixed with "+++" is a new, unexpected behavior that it detected.
Hot off the personal blog: https://unfinished.bike/detecting-the-lottie-supply-chain-attack-with-malcontent - #malcontent is an #opensource #supply-chain attack detector that @egibs and I have been hacking at during our free time. For more, see https://github.com/chainguard-dev/malcontent
Not to sound like a #curmudgeon (a #malcontent if you will) but why don't #parents prevent their #spawn from making noise with utensils when in a public restaurant? How is the partially formed #homosapien to imprint what is rude, #entitled and/or #unconscious behaviour?
👋 My last #introduction was in 2022, so here's an update:
- Security Squad Lead at #Chainguard
- Keenly interested in #InfoSec and #ReliabilityEngineering
- 30 years of experience messing with the Internet & UNIX
- I build bamboo bicycle frames & spend more time tinkering than riding
- Spend my idle time playing #guitar and wandering on 2-wheel EVs
- Live in #Carrboro NC with my wife & kids
- Contributed to 150+ #OpenSource projects including 50+ I've created - #malcontent is my latest.
Fixed the #flatpak issue, seems that when testing #Gnome and removing it again, it took out #malcontent and since that wasn't installed, flatpak wouldn't let anyone run flatpak apps.
Trying out this wacky #mastodon thing out. It seems like IRC for Twitter?
By way of #introduction, I'm a #malcontent #gay #GenX #nerd who has worked in #tech since the early 1990's. I also dabble in #synthpop / #electronica #music under the project name World Control. I'm very fluent in #python and #Java.
I'm a massive fan of #DoctorWho and #InformationSociety.
I also dabble in #HamRadio and simple #electronics. I also love #running, #cycling, & #swimming.
#Spatula is my favorite word.
