Using LLVM's libfuzzer with Swift

Background

Of the many tools available for fuzzing, I've found that LLVM's libfuzzer is the easiest to use for Swift on macOS. Other tools seem to have a list of requirements taht are difficult to meet. libfuzzer on the other hand is built into LLVM and is available on macOS in the custom Swift toolchains: https://www.swift.org/download/

In this document I'll describe how to use libfuzzer with Swift and Swift Packages.

I used this setup to fuzz an SVG Renderer package that I am building. I was able to find and fix a number of bugs in my SVG parsing code using libfuzzer in basically no time at all.

Generate Symantec VIP Access Token as OTP

Recently I came across a web service that required two-factor authentication using the Symantec VIP Access App. I already manage all of my OTP tokens in a different app (If you are on iOS I highly recommend using OTP Auth by Roland Moers.) and did not want to have to use yet another app to generate the TOTP.

There is a way to generate a Symantec VIP Access compatible token very easily if you have access to an environment which can run Python PIP. I happen to have Ubuntu Windows Subsystem Linux running on my machine. (If you are running Windows 10 and don't have this you should really check it out.) Let's get started...

Key exchange in supersingular space-time

I was asked to vulgarize SIDH. Here is a very poor attempt!

Alice and Bob are space travelers. They both own a spaceship capable of traveling the galaxy through supersingular space-time at incredible speeds. They want to discuss a top-secret space mission, but they are afraid that the evil Zkptrx will spy upon their

This document has moved!

It's now here, in The Programmer's Compendium. The content is the same as before, but being part of the compendium means that it's actively maintained.

Most VPN Services are Terrible

Short version: I strongly do not recommend using any of these providers. You are, of course, free to use whatever you like. My TL;DR advice: Roll your own and use Algo or Streisand. For messaging & voice, use Signal. For increased anonymity, use Tor for desktop (though recognize that doing so may actually put you at greater risk), and Onion Browser for mobile.

This mini-rant came on the heels of an interesting twitter discussion: https://twitter.com/kennwhite/status/591074055018582016

A nicer Terminal experience.

Just add the following to your bash profile.

export PS1='\[\033[38;5;202;48;5;0m\]⏣ \[\033[38;5;134;48;5;0m\]\w \[\033[38;5;112;48;5;0m\]`git branch 2> /dev/null | grep -e ^* | sed -E  s/^\\\\\*\ \(.+\)$/\(\\\\\1\)\ /`\[\033[00m\]'

(The green bit there is the current branch you're on if you're in a directory that has a git repository within it)
