Perl Encryption Primer

by Timm Murray

This is a compilation of the "Perl Encryption Primer" series of articles by Timm Murray, as published on http://www.wumpus-cave.net/category/encryption/. I have taken the liberty of moving the content here (as is), formatting it as Markdown and ordering them chronologically from top to bottom to easen the reading experience. Enjoy!

Timm also made a one-hour video of the presentation he gave at MadMongers, which summarizes the content below.

Here is the difference between Perl 5 and Perl 6 pack/unpack:

Perl 5                      Perl 6

pack(List)  --> Str         pack(List)  --> Buf
unpack(Str) --> List        unpack(Buf) --> List

Not only that, but some Perl 5 template rules assume an uncomplicated two-way street between Buf and Str. There simply is no real distinction in Perl 5 between Buf and Str, and Perl 5 makes use of that quite a bit.

Just looking at the description of the first template rule gives an indication of this:

-@echo off
-if not "%1"=="am_admin" (powershell start -verb runas '%0' am_admin & exit /b)
-@rem *** Disable Some Service ***
-sc stop DiagTrack
-sc stop diagnosticshub.standardcollector.service
-sc stop dmwappushservice
-sc stop WMPNetworkSvc
-sc stop WSearch

	my $py = Inline::Python.new();
	$py.run('import matplotlib.pyplot');

	class Matplotlib::Mlab {
	method FALLBACK($name, \|c) {
	$py.call('matplotlib.mlab', $name, \|c)
	}
