用 SATA 界面產生的電磁訊號突破 Air Gap 限制傳輸資料

Hacker News 首頁上看到「SATAn: Air-Gap Exfiltration Attack via Radio Signals From SATA Cables」這個,透過 SATA 界面產生的電磁訊號突破 Air Gap 限制傳輸資料,對應的討論在「SATAn: Air-Gap Exfiltration Attack via Radio Signals from SATA Cables (arxiv.org)」。

Although air-gap computers have no wireless connectivity, we show that attackers can use the SATA cable as a wireless antenna to transfer radio signals at the 6 GHz frequency band.

翻了一下論文裡面提到的距離,在 PC-1 上測試到 120cm,對應的 SNR 有 9db:

Table IV presents the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) received with the three transmitting computers. The signal transmitted from PC-1 has a strength of 20 dB at 30 cm to 9 dB at 120 cm apart. The signal generated from PC-1 and PC-2 were significantly weaker, with 15 dB at 60 cm (PC-2) and 7 dB at 30 cm (PC-3).

另外大概是 PoC 的關係,只有簡單測一下是可行的 (對於真的有利用 air gap 的環境當作一種保護機制的威脅就夠大了),看起來沒有測極限可以跑多快:

We transmitted the data with a bit rate of 1 bit/sec, which is shown to be the minimal time to generate a signal which is strong enough for modulation.

關於反制的部份,這類的技術 (透過電磁訊號) 之前在其他的裝置上都有發生過,目前的 air gap 標準應該都有電磁訊號洩漏的防範了,這篇主要還是在展示 SATA 也可以這樣搞 XD

Cloudflare 的 D1 (SQLite as a service)

在 Hacker News Daily 上看到 Cloudflare 推出了新產品 D1:「Announcing D1: our first SQL database」,在 Hacker News 上對應的討論在「D1: Our SQL database (cloudflare.com)」這邊可以看到。 就如同 Hacker News 上的討論提到的,這篇文章不像一般的 Cloudflare 文章會帶有很多技術上的說明 (尤其是在描述技術產品),這篇算是非常的行銷導向的文章,目前大家只能靠「猜」的去理解: For a Cloudflare article, this one is surprisingly light on technical details. And for the product where it most matters. 翻了一下這兩個屬名的作者,Rita Kozlov 是…

立端科技的 IIoT-I530

因為工作的關係,所以會關注一些特殊的硬體,但好像暫時找不到地方放,就丟在 blog 上面記錄好了... 這次看到的是支援一堆 PoE+ 的機器:「Tiger Lake-U system features dual 2.5GbE and six PoE+ ports」。 除了 PoE+ 以外另外有 mSATA 與 SATA 支援,然後還有一堆 M.2 的界面可以接 (好像是走 PCIe): Lanner’s “IIoT-I530” embedded PC runs Linux on an 11th Gen U-series CPU and supplies with up to 64GB RAM, 2x 2.5GbE, 6x PoE+, 2x…

PostgreSQL 上對應 pt-online-schema-change 的工具 pg-osc

翻資料的時候翻到「pg-osc: Zero downtime schema changes in PostgreSQL」這篇文章,可以在 PostgreSQL 上做到類似 pt-online-schema-change 的事情,這邊先提一下 pt-online-schema-change 的說明: ALTER tables without locking them. 不管是 MySQL 還是 PostgreSQL,都會遇到 ALTER TABLE 常常會 lock 的問題,這點主要的影響就是 db migration。 在 dev 環境的機器應該沒什麼問題,資料量都不大,應該是很快就可以跑完;但在 stage 環境時就會開始有狀況了 (假設是從 production 複製過來的資料,表格的大小可能偏大),但應該還是可以用 downtime 換,慢慢跑,花幾個小時把 db migration 跑完。 可是到了 production 環境時就不太能這樣搞了,這也是一般不太建議在 production 環境裡用現成的 db migration 工具,尤其當資料量偏大的時候。…
