# Safe WAF Tester Script 
# Usage: ./waf-smoke-test.sh <URL> [-o output.md] [-H "Header: Value"]
# Examples:

greyltc

#!/usr/bin/env bash

# run this on the remote terminal machine, as auser with sudo powers, probably through a remote ssh shell

# this will overwrite all the settings it touches

# the name of the user to run these commands as
TARGET_USER=jane

# we need an inlocked desktop session. we can either start a new autologin one or unlock an existing one

The instructions were tested on a Lenovo X1 Carbon 5th Gen (X1C5) on Arch Linux but should be applicable to other Lenovo models and Linux distributions.

BACKUP YOUR DATA! I created a bootable Ubuntu Image like this:

$ sudo sh -c 'curl --location --silent --fail "http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.iso" | pv > /dev/<your-usb-drive>'
# note that pv is only there to show progress, it is perfectly fine to redirect curl to the usb drive directly.

then I booted from this drive by pressing F12 on reboot and dumped my NVMe disk to an external hard drive like this:

The command line, in short…

wget -k -K -E -r -l 10 -p -N -F --restrict-file-names=windows -nH http://website.com/

…and the options explained

• -k : convert links to relative
• -K : keep an original versions of files without the conversions made by wget
• -E : rename html files to .html (if they don’t already have an htm(l) extension)
• -r : recursive… of course we want to make a recursive copy
• -l 10 : the maximum level of recursion. if you have a really big website you may need to put a higher number, but 10 levels should be enough.

Falsehoods programmers believe about prices

1. You can store a price in a floating point variable.
2. All currencies are subdivided in 1/100th units (like US dollar/cents, euro/eurocents etc.).
3. All currencies are subdivided in decimal units (like dinar/fils)
4. All currencies currently in circulation are subdivided in decimal units. (to exclude shillings, pennies) (counter-example: MGA)
5. All currencies are subdivided. (counter-examples: KRW, COP, JPY... Or subdivisions can be deprecated.)
6. Prices can't have more precision than the smaller sub-unit of the currency. (e.g. gas prices)
7. For any currency you can have a price of 1. (ZWL)
8. Every country has its own currency. (EUR is the best example, but also Franc CFA, etc.)

# Just a work in progress and adapted to what I need right now. 
# It does uploads (via a file-like object that you write to) and
# I've started on downloads. Needs the development version of Boto from Github.

# Example:
#
#     glacierconn = GlacierConnection(AWS_ACCESS_KEY, AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY)
#     writer = GlacierWriter(glacierconn, GLACIER_VAULT)
#     writer.write(somedata)

# Simple bijective function
#   Basically encodes any integer into a base(n) string,
#     where n is ALPHABET.length.
#   Based on pseudocode from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/742013/how-to-code-a-url-shortener/742047#742047

ALPHABET =
  "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789".split(//)
  # make your own alphabet using:
  # (('a'..'z').to_a + ('A'..'Z').to_a + (0..9).to_a).shuffle.join
