What have students made using Unreal Engine?

Using everything from Unreal Engine and MetaHuman to RealityCapture and Quixel Megascans, these projects are a showcase of what’s possible with a little imagination and the Epic ecosystem!

This video gives you a glimpse at some of the stunning work produced by our talented community of students in 2024 📚

These are not some company-sponsored games, these are games made by university students around the world.

Randomness is extremely important for secure encryption. Each new key that a computer uses to encrypt data must be truly random, so that an attacker won't be able to figure out the key and decrypt the data. However, computers are designed to provide predictable, logical outputs based on a given input. They aren't designed to produce the random data needed for creating unpredictable encryption keys.

Long passwords are cursed:
The bcrypt implementation only uses the first 72 bytes of a string. Any characters after that are ignored.

JavaScript Data objects are cursed:
JavaScript date objects are 1 indexed for years and days, but 0 indexed for months.

GitHub Notification Emails Hijacked to Send Malware

#Lumma

P.S: Lumma is one of many malware operations (read: gangs) that offer a "malware as a service" product. Their so-called "stealer" code searches through your system for cryptocurrency wallets, stored credentials, and other sensitive data. This data is then sent to their command-and-control (C2) servers where the gang can then move on to either stealing money from you, or profit from selling your data online.

Step back for a moment and you'll recall that it's not the browser that is downloading this malicious exe, instead it's PowerShell - or, more specifically, it's the System.Net.WebClient class in .NET Framework.

This class has a method, DownloadFile which does exactly that - downloads a file to a local path, except this method does not set the MOTW (Mark of The Web) flag for the downloaded file.

woto-scp is updated

yt-dlp issue is now temporarily fixed; however, extra action is needed:
1. login to your server
2. do nano ~/yt-dlp.conf
3. put this line inside of it: --username oauth2 --password ''
4. save and close
5. try to run this command: yt-dlp https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
6. you get prompted for oauth. do what they are told in the console.
7. if all goes well, you should be able to download it.
8. now cd to your woto-scp folder, do nano config.ini
9. if you have yt_cookies_file set, COMMENT IT
10. add these lines to the config, under the [woto-scp] section:
yt_dlp_username = oauth2
yt_dlp_password =

11. save and close. it should work now.

if it still ain't working, then it means your server's ip is blocked by youtube/google guys, rip (you can try to use a proxy or idk)
also make sure you have git pulled the latest commits as well (using .gitpull command in telegram, or git pull origin master in your terminal.
