New Phoenix attack bypasses Rowhammer defenses in DDR5 memory

bleepingcomputer.com Unknown 2025-09-25 23:01:24

Academic researchers have devised a new variant of Rowhammer attacks that bypass the latest protection mechanisms on DDR5 memory chips from SK Hynix. A Rowhammer attack works by repeatedly accessing specific rows of memory cells at high-speed read/write operations to cause enough electrical interference to alter the value of the nearby bits from one to zero and vice-versa (bit flipping). An attacker could potentialluy corrupt data, increase their privileges on the system, execute malicious cod

Creating a VGA Signal in Hubris

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-26 11:04:24

A while ago I got a ST Nucleo-H753ZI evaluation board because I wanted to try out Hubris, Oxide's embedded operating system. After getting the basic demo app with the blinking lights running I set it aside for a lack of an idea what to do with it. A few weeks ago I was looking through old Raspberry Pi accessories on the hunt for a project. What stuck out to me wasn't any of the Raspberry Pi stuff, but the old 4 by 3 VGA monitor I had standing around. Could I just wire those pins in the VGA cable

How big a solar battery do I need to store all my home's electricity?

news.ycombinator.com Terence Eden 2025-09-26 08:33:28

I have a modest set of solar panels on an entirely ordinary house in suburban London. On average they generate about 3,800kWh per year. We also use about 3,800kWh of electricity each year. Obviously, we can't use all the power produced over summer and we need to buy power in winter. So here's my question: How big a battery would we need in order to be completely self-sufficient?

The Pixel 10 made me fall back in love with small phones

Adamya Sharma / Android Authority Remember a time when we used to call devices with 7-inch screens tablets? Does your memory go back to the era of phablets — phones with a “large” 5.5-inch display? Screen sizes have gone up so much that almost 7 inches is now considered a standard phone size, while we call 6 inches mini. I fall in the former category: I used the iPhone 16 Pro Max, a massive brick of a phone, for the majority of the last year. And if my wrist had vocal cords, you could hear it s

Modder adds over an hour of Switch 2 runtime by dropping in a bigger battery pack

techspot.com Kishalaya Kundu 2025-09-24 20:31:00

In a nutshell: The Nintendo Switch 2 debuted earlier this year to a warm reception from both reviewers and gamers. However, battery life remains one of its few weaknesses, a limitation carried over from the first-generation model. A modder has now attempted to address this issue by increasing the Switch 2's battery capacity from 5,220 mAh to 8,000 mAh. The mod comes courtesy of YouTuber Naga, who pried open a Switch 2 and installed a larger 8,000 mAh battery in place of the factory-fitted 5,220
