Phatbox DMS Security Cracked!

I figured it out early this morning. Quite easy really.

Once you get serial console access and log into the box (with root / phatbox ) you can run a script on the box called dmssign. The box wont fully boot and mount the /dos partition if the script wasnt run on the drive.

I have an 80 gig drive out of a laptop I have running in my keg right now. WOOT!

OK, I'll bite. I see you're in the Central Texas area. I'm in Austin for a few days and am interested in upgrading to an 80gig drive if you're willing to help and this isn't a joke.

I'd be happy to get some help working on the project though.

No harm, no foul.

My hardware knowledge doesn't extend to the level you're working on so I don't know what I could offer in the way of help.

judb · April 02, 2005, 02:37:31 AM

ouch, thats pretty far south from here.

I keep hoping that someone else on the board will chime in with some ideas or do some testing of their own ...

We talked it over here at PhatNoise and we decided to help you all out by showing you the "private keys".

What the heck is written in red under phatnoise on the Mens DMS? I cant quite tell and haven't seen a des like that before.

on a not very serious note, who wants to research steganography (sp?) to see if theres an embeded message in that image?
