Hackers.mu organised another great hackathon

Operation PB

Why PB?
After Operation S.A.D and W.T.F, here comes operation P.B!
You might be wondering why we chose the name PB for the operation. It was decided by Nitin, who was wondering what name would fit this operation. He then, to conclude, decided to name it Prison Break.

Playing with fire in jail

Operation Prison Break was a third hackathon organised by members of hackers.mu. It was a hackathon held in Lescalier, in a hall.

Sandboxing profile for xzdec
I personally worked on a project name the xzdec which is a decompressing tool. It was cool to learn a little bit more on topics concerning security of people.

Basically what it does, it decompresses files with .xz extension.
Monitored by Logan, I created a profile for xzdec, which you can see above. It was built using a whitelist approach.

Usage:
xzdec 'filename'.xz

Purpose
Instead of finding flaws, unlike previous hackathons, this time we're looking at ways to reduce the impact of vulnerabilities in popular linux softwares.

Unlike other famous stacks such as MEAN and MERN, the FReMP stack uses Python to handle back-end operations. Examples of such operations can be machine learning and artificial intelligence operations, web scraping tools or digital image processing. Step 0: Update your list of installed packages While this is optional, it is always a good practice to update your list of packages and upgrade them for newer versions before starting any installation on your environment. Run the following to do so: $ apt-get

[Python]Publish your python project to PyPI

The Python Package Index, also known as PyPI, is a large repository of python packages. Millions of developers all around the world contribute to Python daily by creating python scripts and uploading to PyPI. In this blog post, I am going to write a simple python script that, on running, will print Hello World on the terminal. Then, going to upload this script to PyPI so that it can be installed on any platform easily using pip or pip3 . Requirements: 1. Github account 2. Basic knowledge of python 3. setuptools - (pip3 install setuptools) 4. wheel - (pip3 install wheel) By the end of this blog post, you should be able to print hello world using a single command: Let's get started! The first thing to do is find a unique name for your project. The name that I will call the Hello World script will be print_hello_world . At the time that I am writing this post, there is not package called print_hello_world on PyPI . Logically, after doing this tutorial, there might
