tsom Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Very cool! Wish this was around before I did it manually, the hard way! Does it have SMB enabled to be able to copy files to the data directory? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tschak909 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 @Kyle22 take a copy of Visual Studio 2003, and build the source code. It's the only way you'll get a viable binary that will run under XP.

tschak909 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 There haven't been any new patches to Windows XP since 2013. Do you seriously think there haven't been any new threats against the XP kernel since then? You're seriously out of your depth, and you should listen to people who actually have expertise in this area. And I don't trust them, really. All of my secure computing happens in Tails. Which, if you were genuinely interested in security, you'd use something like Tails, or Qubes, or even a very spartan OpenBSD installation (all of which have been and are continually audited). -Thom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle22 Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 I can't find my micro SD card adapter. I will report back tomorrow. I think Selfimage will work. It is just like Linux dd. I'm gonna try this: https://en.softonic.com/download/selfimage/windows/post-download I don't have a micro SD adapter where I can find it, so I'll try it tomorrow when I get the adapter from downstairs.

+x=usr(1536) Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 (edited) Before going into my reply, I would like to make clear that the majority of my career from about 1998 or so has been spent in Information Security. There are other aspects of tech that I have worked in, but infosec has been the central one for over 20 years at this point. 57 minutes ago, Kyle22 said: OT: Look at what you agree to when you sign up w/ Win 10 / M$.

M$ can DELETE your files that THEY don't like. M$ = EVIL. Anyone has a choice of operating systems to use, and may agree or not to the terms of usage of those operating systems as they see fit. However, my question was specifically regarding Windows XP, not subsequent Windows versions, so I'll move on. Quote Win XP has been around for a long time and had been fully patched against threats. Who has provided documented assurance that this is the case? Microsoft? Third-party auditors? Jim-Bob down the street? It's an operating system that hasn't seen a single publically-available security patch in nearly seven years. Seven. That's a long time to find new vulnerabilities, exploit them, and know that there's a large conglomeration of unpatched devices out there just waiting to be owned. Even enterprise entities that had been paying for post-EOL patch support (which, incidentally, only applied to certain versions of XP) were scrambling to get out from under that by 2017. It's a dead OS, and one that's a liability in the wider scheme of things as a result. Quote Win 10 is still new and likely has deliberate holes and backdoors. NEVER TRUST M$! Don't trust anything you haven't inspected, built, and inspected again yourself. If you're not in a position to do that (and, realistically, very few of us are), determine your trust level in what you're planning to use and evaluate and accept/reject accordingly. 49 minutes ago, Kyle22 said: I post in certain forums on a different site and I have been VERY outspoken and I have never had my IP address hacked past my WRT1900AC. They have never gotten into any of my Windows machines. I see some hack attempts at the Atari sometimes, but it can easily handle it. How do you know any of this to be correct? Again, how were these conclusions reached? If the Atari is on the same network as your home LAN (which I'm guessing it is, given the consumer-grade router in use), I'd be extremely concerned for the security of the other machines. The things you can see aren't the ones that necessarily matter; it's usually the ones that you can't or aren't seeing that do. Incidentally, unless you're running that XP box inside a soundproofed Faraday-caged room set on vibration isolation mounts and are supplying it with power from a source with no ties to any external (i.e., grid) sources, spying is still an option. Oh, and for network communication, do everything optically. In terms of risk reduction, those are going to be your best bets.

It also doesn't account for vulnerabilities that may exist elsewhere in the chain - such as devices used to provide that A8 with network connectivity - which are the vulnerabilities I'd be more concerned about being exploited rather than ones that might exist in the A8 itself. Still, giving a bad actor a potential pivot point to other devices on the network is a Bad Idea. As an example, printers remain a significant problem in that regard. Just because the A8's an A8 doesn't mean that security through obscurity is a good approach, either. Believe me, I get where you're coming from: my test VoIP BBS was running on Synchronet under Windows XP until about 2019. But I was also clear as to the risks of doing so, which meant that the OS was running in a VM with no network connectivity; the nearest it came to that was passthrough of a USB modem from the host. Unless someone managed to leverage a seriously low-level VMWare exploit from it (in which case I would have had much bigger problems on my hands), it was fairly safe - but even then, the potential for problems still remained. This was the main reason for it being ditched entirely and rebuilt from scratch on hardware with an OS that still had a good chunk of its support lifecycle left.
