[_] welp, this was fun Anon 3456606 The 12th of January is tommrow, and with it, flash will not be working anymore, unless you installed flash 32.0.0.371 or earlier, which don't have the killswitch. I hope the mods got something fun planned for tommrrow. Mayby some cool touhou tuesday flash?
>> [_] Anon 3456618 >># >The 12th of January is tommrow, and with it, flash will not be working anymore Actually, if I'm not mistaken it'll stop working in just under five and a half hours from right now. That is, of course if you don't do something to stop that from happening.
>> [_] Anon 3456624 >># >># there's two options besides downgrading: A) you use the mms.cfg file to set domains in an allowlist B) you hex edit the plugin to effectively remove the killswitch
>> [_] Anon 3456628 >># Two questions: A) Where would I go to find out the proper syntax for setting whitelisted domains in mms.cfg? B) Where would I find the files that need to be hex edited for the plugin for a standalone browser, for example Palemoon portable?
>> [_] Anon 3456631 >># A) lurk more just kidding https://www.adobe.com/content/dam/acom/e n/devnet/flashplayer/articles/flash_playe r_admin_guide/pdf/latest/flash_player_32_ 0_admin_guide.pdf just serach for the section of AllowList, here's a few examples: EnableAllowList=1 AllowListUrlPattern=*://*.4chan.org:* AllowListUrlPattern=*://*.4cdn.org:* and one similar for all other domains you want flash on, also add one for local files AllowListUrlPattern=file:///* AllowListUrlPattern=file:* AllowListUrlPattern=file:///C:/*/*.* AllowListUrlPattern=blob:* >if you're there might as well add AllowListRootMovieOnly=1 SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0 EOLUninstallDisable=1 B) http://cache.tehsausage.com/flash/defuse .txt you need to open the files described there in a hex editor of your choice I think palemoon standalone doesn't use the install directory of flash, but has its own portable plugins in a folder inside the main folder it runs from I haven't tested yet if the mms.cfg gets called from inside that folder or the regular system folder though I know with a non portable standard install it works from the system directory also add AllowListPreview=1 if you want to see the results right now and not wait until the killswitch tomorrow
>> [_] Anon 3456633 >># Wasn't there also that open source alternative? Or more like three of them.
>> [_] Anon 3456636 I think I successfully hex-edited my copy of Flash to work till infinity (at least, it still works when I change my clock). However I use Chrome (inb4 botnet). Does the browser have its own kill switch for all things Flash?
>> [_] Anon 3456638 >># >http://cache.tehsausage.com/flash/defus e.txt >you need to open the files described there in a hex editor of your choice I used HxD to open the six files mentioned by tehsausage (assuming the two copies of Flash.ocx are equivalent to the (apparently nonexistent in my install) Flash32_32_0_0_453.ocx and Flash64_32_0_0_453.ocx), but couldn't find the timestamp in question in those two files. Any idea what's up with that?
>> [_] Anon 3456641 >># I had the same problem as >># Been trying to figure things out for hours now. I know next to nothing about software. Wish that shit would be more like chemistry.
>> [_] Anon 3456647 >># Flash32_32_0_0_453.ocx and NPSWF32_32_0_0_453.dll just mean that this is the version of flash that this guy had installed the numbers will be different if you're on a different version of flash and most likely also the offsets just note that NPSWF....dll is the firefox (and palemoon) plugin, pepflashplayer is the chrome plugin and the ocx is either the active X microsoft plugin or a helper file idk for palemoon users I copied the NPSWF dll to the plugin folder of the standalone browser, so it's most likely the only thing needed to play flash and if you edit it you should be good also I think the text contains an error as the 64 bit version of the plugin (which I used because I have a 64bit standalone palemoon) starts with NPSWF64 and not NPSWF32, so keep that in mind, there's also the two FLASHUTIL64 files which are most likely only used for update procedures and installer popups as far as I am concerned the NPSWF64_32_0_0_*.dll is the flash player plugin, so if you mod that you should be good >># nobody can figure out hex code by itself just look for the exact string of characters, if it's not there you have little chance of just hitting it by chance if you don't know what you're doing
>> [_] Anon 3456648 https://archive.org/download/flashplayer archive/pub/flashplayer/installers/archiv e/fp_32.0.0.371_archive.zip
>> [_] Anon 3456656 >># >nobody can figure out hex code by itself >just look at the exact string of characters Ok so it´s trial and error then. Thank you /f/riend. Stupid question: is there a chance that removing it after the 11th will work? I´m getting real sleepy, and have a tendency to attempt stupid things when I´m deprived of sleep and desperate. Or I could w8 till ruffle works, but id rather go full trial and error.
>> [_] Anon 3456658 >># >trial and error >># here, I'm not sure what you mean, but in case you're not aware of this HxD has a search function which is what I used to find the timestamp in four of the six listed files (tehsausage's offsets were wrong in about half). Your guess is as good as mine as to how things will work after the 12th, but I know that I'm going to back everything I can up on external storage, just in case.
>> [_] Anon 3456661 >># I already used the search function. Searched for timestamp, number provided for time stamp, the double precision point, offsets for my version, dates like tomorrow date in hex and regular in european and English/ American writing style. No sensible results so far. That´s why I´m willing to go trial and error at this point. Either I´m completely stupid/incompetent (very likely) or there is something going on here (also likely, says my sleep deprivation-paranoia. After all the glowies and microsoft are everywhere. right ?)
>> [_] Anon 3456664 Why do all that shit when you can just downgrade a couple minor revisions It's not like you have to jump from v32 to say v22 where there's a chance newer flashes might break
>> [_] Anon 3456668 >># Pasting the following: 00 00 40 46 3E 6F 77 42 into the search box in HxD works for me, at least on four of the six files.
>> [_] Anon 3456672 >># Oh, one more thing that's easy to miss: you have to make sure you're searching for a hex-value, not a text-string. I'll bet that's your problem.
>> [_] Anon 3456686 Well, I think I've got it set up to last me until 2038. I used that year since it's easy to remember and I'm worried about how it would interpret NaN, since I haven't heard any specific reports of that actually being tested.
>> [_] Anon 3456690 managed to patch pepperflash for linux on my version (md5sum b6da1630859c4f9c47c8ac26ec9c57a3) the timebomb timestamp is at 0xEB7760, you need to change 00 00 40 46 3E 6F 77 42 to 00 00 00 00 00 00 F8 7F

>> [_] Anon 3443658 >># It was created in 2003. It's older than most it's current users.
>> [_] Anon 3443659 >># you gotta understand, Hiro seems to barely remember he owns 4chan. moot made it, he liked it (until 2012 or so), and he wanted people to have fun with it; that's why he did the cons. Hiro just uses 4chan to peddle scams and probably sells data through his search engine company (exactly what he did with 2ch). Every decision Hiro has ever made with 4chan has been to squeeze nickels and dimes from its users.
>> [_] Anon 3443660 >># This. Hiroshima killed his chans for money. M00t would have monetized it but wouldn't let the site degenerate to the current state even if he truly hates the site. /pol/ would have been axed after 2016 before it turned into /stormfront/ + /thedonald/ and /b/ would have been put under martial law until it stopped being /pr0n/.

>> [_] Anon 3443674 >># we live in the grave
>> [_] Anon 3443675 >># I never bothered with the con itself but I grew up in Baltimore. Otakon was always a blast because there would be cosplayers all over the harbor and downtown and the locals were confused as shit. Occasionally Otakon would occur on the same weekend as a metal festival called Maryland Death Fest and some of the crazy metal people who were closet weebs would come and party with the confolk. Good times.
>> [_] Anon 3443681 >tfw Snacks will never be Backs again ;_;
>> [_] [R-H] !mfGZNk0vaI 3443699 >># Those were better times. I remember visiting 4chan first time after it "died" second time because of paypal. 4chan has always been a place for counterculture, but at least during that first half of 4chan's lifespan it wasn't "SRS Business". Which is kinda ironic now, because it became exactly what the people were making fun of back then.
