fun blog post from @mjg59 wherein he used my #Pdfalyzer tool to bust his landlord for modifying the terms of his rental contract after he signed it.

Used some #AI to jury rig a basic API documentation site for The Yaralyzer, my unexpectedly popular tool for visualizing and forcibly decoding #YARA matches in binary data.

just released version 1.0.1 of The Yaralyzer, my unexpectedly popular tool for visualizing and forcibly decoding #YARA matches in binary data. Fixes a small bug when trying to choose a byte offset to force a UTF-16 or UTF-32 decoding of matched bytes.
someone set up Yaralyzer as a #Kali package; not sure if that's made it into a release yet but if not the links are below.

@evacide seeing as how it seems like the Paragon attack was executed via maldoc PDFs i'll just mention i created a (surprisingly popular) tool for analyzing (possibly malicious) PDFs after my own unpleasant encounter with such a creature

just pushed a new release of The Yaralyzer, my unexpectedly popular tool for visually inspecting the output of #YARA scans with a lot of colors. example output below. change is small: it can now use a directory full of YARA rules files without renaming them all to end in .yara.

someone has packaged this tool for Kali Linux though I don't know if it's in the distro yet. also available for macOS homebrew via an installer someone made for The Pdfalyzer.
Thomas Roccia at #Microsoft was also kind enough to make The Yaralyzer available via a web interface: https://x.com/fr0gger_/status/1749690000478974283
