  • Vulnerability Report Attacks Bypassing Confidentiality in Encrypted PDF
    Vulnerability Report Attacks bypassing confidentiality in encrypted PDF Jens M¨uller1, Fabian Ising2, Vladislav Mladenov1, Christian Mainka1, Sebastian Schinzel2, J¨orgSchwenk1 May 16, 2019 1Chair for Network and Data Security 2FH M¨unsterUniversity of Applied Sciences Abstract In this report, we analyze PDF encryption and show two novel techniques for breaking the confidentiality of encrypted documents. Firstly, we abuse the PDF feature of partially encrypted documents to wrap the encrypted part of the document within attacker-controlled content and therefore, exfiltrate the plaintext once the document is opened by a legitimate user. Secondly, we abuse a flaw in the PDF encryption specification allowing an attacker to arbitrarily manipulate encrypted content without knowing the cor- responding key/password. The only requirement is one single block of known plaintext, which we show is fulfilled by design. By using exfiltration channels our attacks allow the recovery of the entire plaintext or parts of it within an encrypted document. The attacks rely only on standard compliant PDF features. We evaluated our attacks on 27 widely used PDF viewers and found all of them vulnerable. 1 Contents 1 Background4 1.1 Portable Document Format (PDF) . .4 1.2 PDF Encryption . .6 1.3 PDF Interactive Features . .7 2 Attacker Model8 3 PDF Encryption: Security Analysis9 3.1 Partial Encryption . .9 3.2 CBC Malleability . 10 3.3 PDF Interactive Features . 12 4 How To Break PDF Encryption 14 4.1 Direct Exfiltration (Attack A) . 14 4.1.1 Requirements . 15 4.1.2 Direct Exfiltration through PDF Forms (A1) . 15 4.1.3 Direct Exfiltration via Hyperlinks (A2) .

  • Living Without Google on Android
    Alternative for Google Apps on Android - living without Google on Android Android without any Google App? What to use instead of Hangouts, Map, Gmail? Is that even possible? And why would anyone want to live without Google? I've been using a lot of different custom ROMs on my devices, so far the two best: plain Cyanogenmod 11 snapshot on the Nexus 4[^1], and MIUI 2.3.2 on the HTC Desire G7[^2]. All the others ( MUIU 5, MIUI 6 unofficial, AOKP, Kaos, Slim, etc ) were either ugly, unusable, too strange or exceptionally problematic on battery life. For a long time, the first step for me was to install the Google Apps, gapps packages for Plays Store, Maps, and so on, but lately they require so much rights on the phone that I started to have a bad taste about them. Then I started to look for alternatives. 1 of 5 So, what to replace with what? Play Store I've been using F-Droid[^3] as my primary app store for a while now, but since it's strictly Free Software[^4] store only, sometimes there's just no app present for your needs; aptoide[^5] comes very handy in that cases. Hangouts I never liked Hangouts since the move from Gtalk although for a little while it was exceptional for video - I guess it ended when the mass started to use it in replacement of Skype and its recent suckyness. For chat only, check out: ChatSecure[^6], Conversations[^7] or Xabber[^8]. All of them is good for Gtalk-like, oldschool client and though Facebook can be configured as XMPP as well, I'd recommend Xabber for that, the other two is a bit flaky with Facebook.

Devices can have high-level functionality. e.g. pdfwrite can handle text, images, patterns, shading, fills, strokes and transparency directly. Graphics library has “default” operations. e.g. text turns into bitmaps, images decomposed into rectangles. In embedded environments, calls into hardware can be made. Raster devices require the graphics library to do all the rendering. Relevant Changes to GS since last meeting….

  • Incorporer Les Polices Dans Un Document Libreoffice Une Police D’Écriture Ou Police De Caractères Est Une Manière D'écrire Les Caractères
    Incorporer les polices dans un document LibreOffice Une police d’écriture ou police de caractères est une manière d'écrire les caractères. Il en existe énormément et pour à peu près tous les usages. Si vous communiquez électroniquement avec d'autres, il est fort probable qu'ils n'aient pas toutes vos polices numériques. De plus, certaines sont couvertes par un droit d'auteur strict (au sens où l'auteur ne donne pas plus de droits aux utilisateurs que la loi lui oblige) et le droit des marques. C'est un véritable problème. En effet, les polices de caractères informatiques déterminent beaucoup de choses, dont la taille des caractères, l'apparence des caractères et l'espacement entre ceux-ci. Si votre correspondant n'a pas les mêmes polices que vous, votre texte peut donc être visuellement déformé. Les logiciels essayent généralement de trouver la police la plus proche, mais ce n'est pas toujours une grande réussite. Pour combler ce problème, il faut intégrer les polices aux documents que vous transmettez. Bien entendu, cela rendra plus lourd vos documents étant donné qu'ils auront les polices en plus. La bonne nouvelle est que LibreOffice (au moins à partir de la version 4.3) permet cela ! Dans un document OpenDocument OpenDocument est un format ouvert et standardisé qui est utilisé par défaut dans LibreOffice, OpenOffice et Calligra. Les fichiers OpenDocument ont généralement une extension .odx, avec "x" un caractère quelconque. Pour incorporer les polices d'un document au format OpenDocument, suivez les étapes suivantes. 1. Ouvrez votre document au format OpenDocument avec LibreOffice.

Martina Brajkovć autoriza a la Universidad Complutense a difundir y utilizar con fines académicos, no comerciales mencionando expresamente a su autor, tanto la propia memoria, como él código, los contenidos audiovisuales incluso si incluyen imágenes de los autores, la documentación y/o el prototipo desarrollado. Martina Brajković ABSTRACT Electronic books are electronic copy of a book or a book-length digital publication. In the past decade they have become very popular and widely used. Each day more and more publishers digitalize their textbooks and more and more devices are suitable for reading of the electronic books. Huge changes in human communication happened in the late 20th and early 21st century. Due to invention of Internet, information became widely available which changed every segment of human life, especially education. One of the most important applications of electronic books is electronic learning. Electronic learning includes various types of media, such as video, audio, text, images and animations. Interactivity of an electronic book can increase the attention in the classroom and result with better educational performance In this work the process of creation of an interactive electronic book is researched and analyzed. The process includes use of popular Adobe software: InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator, Captivate and Edge Animate.
