I will be presenting about libhijack at Weber State University in Ogden, UT on Feb 21st, 2012, at 1:30 PM. The presentation is free to attend and everyone is welcome. It's the same as my Defcon 19 talk, with new information about porting libhijack to FreeBSD. I will be releasing version 0.6 of libhijack after the presentation. Version 0.6 is coming along very nicely and is ready for release. I'm excited for this release. More information to come.
For the past month, I've been working on fixing just a single bug in the FreeBSD port of libhijack. I finally fixed the bug last night! We're getting closer to a new release of libhijack, which will support 32bit and 64bit Linux and 64bit FreeBSD. I'm going to leave out 32bit support on FreeBSD simply because no one uses 32bit FreeBSD anymore. If anyone would like to add 32bit FreeBSD support, I'll gladly accept patches (assuming the code looks good). There's still at least a month's work left to do.
FreeBSD 9.0 is nearing release--9.0-release is now tagged in version control! This is a major milestone release for FreeBSD with enhancements to many existing features. I keep an up-to-date git repo of FreeBSD 9-stable (updated nightly) at GitHub. My git repo contains a few custom patches I've written the past little while. I will continue to keep the repository up-to-date on a nightly basis as best as I can (the nightly cron job is running in a FreeBSD VM I run at work).
