You Wouldn't Share a Syringe. Would You Share a USB Port?

Explore the security implications of USB ports in this 59-minute conference talk from TROOPERS13. Delve into topics such as Wright's Law, parser bugs, system programming, driver vulnerabilities, custom PCB, USB glossary, and Python-based USB device manipulation. Learn about exploiting enumeration, HID emulation, format string vulnerabilities, host mode emulation, device bugs, and Device Firmware Update (DFU). Examine mass storage, USB serial emulation, and potential targets in Windows and FreeBSD systems. Gain valuable insights to enhance USB security and make the digital world a safer place.
