[Paul Mandel] just finished building this knock box project. It’s a familiar concept that uses a solenoid to tap on the side of the box. The Arduino driven setup monitors vibrations on the lid. When you knock on the box, it records the pattern and plays it back using the solenoid. He was inspired by [...]

This furry Halloween decoration proves to be a simple build, but it’s still quite popular with the little ones. [Chris] had a Halloween party for a group of 2-5 year olds and this monster that peeks out of a box was a huge hit. The trick really isn’t in the complexity of the build, but [...]

[Tim's] ghoul in the box project has all the elements of a classic Halloween prop. He built it for last year’s display but we’re sure it will be a perennial favorite.

Here’s a talking reverse geocache puzzle box which [Erv Plecter] built as a wedding gift for his friends.

For all the wonder of dulcet tones coming from a century-old music box, we’ve got to admit that [Markus]‘ wavetable synthesis build is still pretty impressive.

The echo box performs exactly as its name implies. If you tap out a rhythm on the lid, it will tap the same thing back to you. Except it isn’t tapping to make the sound, but vibrating. The concept is similar to the Knock Block. In that hack, a piezo element detected a rapping on [...]

Hack3rCon 2010 Abstract: Attacking outside the Box: Modern attackers are not relying on network exploits or even application hacking to gain access to your digital assets. As technical defenses increase in complexity and efficiency, attackers are moving into other areas such as smartphones, email hacking, social engineering, onsite theft, and similar targeted methods. This talk will cover what the bad guys are doing, and how you can minimize the chance of a successful attack through proactive security.

There are two methods of using etchant resist when making circuit boards. We use the toner transfer method that requires ironing on laser toner to the copper, but you can also use chemical resist that reacts to ultraviolet light. [Bogdan] decided to start doing more of the latter so he built a UV exposure box [...]

When the box is plugged into a USB port it identifies as a keyboard. Manipulating the buttons on the top and side will select and print out various stored usernames and passwords. [...]

Packet Storm Security Advisories
Zero Day Initiative Advisory 10-170 - This vulnerability allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on vulnerable installations of Apple Safari's Webkit. User interaction is required to exploit this vulnerability in that the target must visit a malicious page or open a malicious file. The specific flaw exists within the library's support of an element containing the run-in property. When a block box is appended as the sibling of a run-in box, the run-in box will be promoted to the first inline box. This implies that the first inline box will be destroyed. Later when the application attempts to destroy this element, it will access memory that has been freed. If an attacker can substitute an alternate type in the element's place, the attacker will have code execution under the context of the application.

This interesting box of buttons is a talking poker tournament timer. Full of useful tools like a binary time display, words of wisdom, countdowns to the end of the game, and even good old “bicycle built for two” mode (around 1:20). While we find it fairly difficult to understand, we applaud the feature list, especially [...]

This is an interesting take on a music box. [Blair Neal] is using an overhead projector with a roll of transparency to make a synthesized music box. A camera watches the projected image and feeds data to Max/MSP to produce the sounds. Customization merely requires creative image analysis. In this case, different colored pens or [...]

I have a client with an older Fedora box. They allow external connections via the built in remote desktop sharing (vino-server). I've been asked to audit the vnc connections to the box for the past 3 months.
I didn't set up the machine so I'm not sure what options have been set up for logging. Does anyone know if there are any default vnc logs or where I can start looking for connection logs to port 5900?
Thanks in advance.

Not sure if this is a VB issue or a BT issue. I have BT2 and 3 iso's in VB running just fine except one small problem. I have searched the newbie forum for issues close to mine and dont seem to see any. My issue is that whn i start BT2 and 3 in a VB machine, the window used to autosize to fit the 1024x768 resolution. But then i updated from 3.08 to 3.14. Now what is happening is that the screen of bt2 and 3 are not auto fitted any more so i have to use the scroll bars on the right and bottom sides to move the bt screen around so i can see the task bar. This is anoying since i have to hit the right ctrl button continually to move the envronment to see any of the windows or task bar. I have posted in VB forums but no one has posted back and its been 3 days. Like i mentioned earlier in the post, it used to auto fit the bt screen in the box so i would not have to use the scroll bars. i have tried to look for an option in VB but cant seem to find one. Also i try to change the res of bt3 or 2 to 800x600 but it does not like that. haha.
thanks for the help. I am using bt2 for my labs from the professional pen test book by tom welhelm.
