Only a few people showed up, so we used the tables on the 2nd floor. People introduced themselves. Many things were discussed. No one took notes. [Meltdown and Spectre](https://meltdownattack.com/) were discussed and someone asked for PoC. PoC was released the day after the Neg9 meeting [for Meltdown](https://github.com/IAIK/meltdown/). Also [Project Zero released code](https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1272#c3). Performance impact on Meltdown and Spectre are a major issue and may cause people to reject patching. If this is the case, understanding the vulnerabilities and how they affect your use case is more important. A proposal was made to repeal the CFAA. Arguments for were given. Arguments against were discussed. The talk involved a small difficult CTF. Challenges will be posted in in the coming months. ### Final Scoreboard |Team Name|Score|Solves|First Blood| |-|-|-|-| |andrewx|50|1|✓| |OwO|50|1| | |aeiro|50|1| | |Neg9|0|0| | The CTF was a learning experience for everyone involved. The difficulty was far too high for a 2 hour event, so next events will have very low barrier or have less cryptic clues. Everyone who played had good ideas, so keep learning. ---- CategoryLocalMeetings
