mvt VS WebKit

Amnesty International released Mobile Verification Toolkit to check your phone for malware, by checking encrypted backups on your computer. https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt

From what I was able to read previously, it has no ability to spread by itself and has to be installed by a targeted attack. There is also a tool from Amnesty International that can detect it (or was able to): https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt

It is a race though, so past info may no longer be valid. However, I doubt it will ever be able to spread by itself, since it uses very expensive zero days to infect and they will be quickly fixed after detection.

Public Service Announcement:

Amnesty International has a program on GitHub with Citizens Lab for those keeping an eye out for additional protections

MVT (Mobile Verification Toolkit) helps with conducting forensics of mobile devices in order to find signs of a potential compromise.

You can do a backup of your phone and analyze said backup using digital forensics to see if for example "automated software" will detect any of the more mainstream spyware/hacks. You can use mobile verification toolkit (mvt) to do this, but it won't detect everything. It is however a good start, you can investigate the basic results with limited knowledge and if something is detected you can further it up to a digital forensics company because it will very highly likely be beyond your qualifications to analyze by yourself. Hope this helps.

I was extremly paranoid i got a virus a few months ago and i think i may have downloaded something.

If you wanna check your phone, maybe try using this: https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt

if android, this is available -- https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt

Multiple engineers are working on adding it back: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3Aclosed...

Since 2023 Chrome announced the View Transition API, and it looks like Safari is also going to support it soon.

One heap per type.

Here’s an allocator optimized for that use case.

To use this in Bun, you’d have to start Bun with the environment variable “BUN_JSC_useDollarVM=1” and then $vm.createBuiltin(mySourceCodeString)

When using this intrinsic, if any of the arguments are incorrect or it cannot otherwise enable it, the entire process will probably crash. In debug builds of JSC it will have a nicer assertion failure but that is not enabled in release builds

Example code: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/17351231b4dedb62d81721...

also happy to answer any questions about Bun

Ah, good, let me introduce you to the wonderful world of the Chrome Devtools Protocol! (fka Chrome Remote Debugging Protocol)

I love this API for almost everything browser related. I built my RBI product atop this (BrowserBox: https://dosyago.com), and I think it's a drastically underrated API.

Also, it works out of the box in Edge, Brave, Chromium, and many parts of CRDP are supported by Firefox and Safari^1

No, it's unrelated.

It's being worked on now: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/17320

It is different. The cross-site navigation flag is a couple of years old. It was enabled by default for iOS in November 2018 for example https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/commit/e191fc8c412850cb9fd0...
