Agenda:

DufDuf Transmitter Hunting: Radio Direction Finding (RDF) with Software Defined Radio (SDR) - Balint Seeber

Trying to find someone annoying who is causing interference on your frequency? RDF is an important tool for both radio professionals and amateurs. It was used in World War II (e.g. British Signals Intelligence's Ystations for locating U-boats in the Atlantic), and now can be bought as a solid-state kit to mount on your car's rooftop. I have taken this a step further by doing as much in software as possible with open source tools (USRP & GNU Radio), and attached it to a fancy GUI that talks to you while you drive.

A run-through of reliably exploiting a Firefox client-side - Fionnbarr Davies

Fionnbarr will be discussing 100% reliable exploitation of CVE-2011-2371 (found by Chris Rohlf) by using an infoleak and no heap spraying techniques. There won't be any spamming the address space and relying on the sayonara ROP chain - this will instead go over how exploit writers are supposed to ball to produce quality and reliable exploits.
