"[T]he exploit is the first to show that GPUs can flip individual bits stored in dynamic random-access memory. (...) It's also the first Rowhammer attack that uses standard JavaScript to compromise a smartphone, meaning it can be executed when users do nothing more than visit a malicious website. Another key innovation: on average, GLitch takes less than two minutes to compromise a device"

#introduction

Hi all! I'm a musician, a game developer, a dad, and a slightly out of touch nerd.

In the day I work at Schell Games. If you have kids, they've probably seen some of my work and they don't know it. You might have too.

At night I make weird electronic music as Rainbow Kitten. Also I make my own games.

I love everyone I meet but I'm usually too nervous to talk to them.

The actual lesson people should take from the Twitter thing is: logs are evil.

Stop logging everything, nasty sysadmins! 😜

You'll inevitably record something you shouldn't have and user privacy will suffer.

Twitter was negligent and stored everyone's password totally unencrypted in a log file. So, change your password now. https://blog.twitter.com/official/en_us/topics/company/2018/keeping-your-account-secure.html

Didn't know that Twitter records you at any time the app is in the foreground. Good thing we are on Mastodon now! 😀 Keep up the good work @Gargron 👍 ❤️
