ah, found it. If I can't figure out how to RAM my RAM faster, maybe I can at least get rid of the dumb image.

I found the Energy Star logo image but not the Dell logo. The boot process doesn't really display the former, so can't really do much fun with that.

"DECOMPILATION OR DISASSEMBLY PROHIBITED"

Sure, whatever you say Intel VESA VGA BIOS.

found the strings table. Might go back and have fun with that later. If I can't make it do what I want I can at least make it swear.

"IBM COMPATIBLE 486 BIOS COPYRIGHT Phoenix Technologies, Ltds, Ltd. Phoenix" well, hello there.

all this because I want to set the FSB speed to 1066mhz on an LGA 775 system

so the BIOS image which I extracted from the original install tool isn't recognized by any of the bios editing tools and... is an lzh-compressed image with about 448 KB of filler? how many layers does this thing have to be wrapped, this is getting a bit tiring.

"It turns out that stack canaries and Position Independent Executable (PIE) are not enabled. These mechanisms have been staples of memory corruption defenses for decades.

What's more worrying, is that multiple Danfoss business units (including Climate Solutions & Electronic Controllers) received IEC 62443-4-1 certification for Secure Product Development Lifecycle and this is prominently advertised as such."

Got a feeling the Danfoss freezer thing is going to kick back off at some point.

This blog has a look at the firmware on well used devices and immediate finds new vulns, including with latest updates. Including preauth RCE.

Thankfully they withheld technical details. Lots of these freezers have still been left directly online.

Just disassembled my first program using gdb thanks to pwn.college.
