Of course, the attacker would never wish to be on the same flight, so in this article, we are going to talk about a potential loophole that could allow an attacker to exploit a vulnerability with some level of "unsupervised" physical access to a small aircraft before the plane takes off. The United States Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) has issued an alert for the same, warning owners of small aircraft to be on guard against a vulnerability that could enable attackers to easily hack the plane's CAN bus and take control of key navigation systems. The vulnerability, discovered by a cybersecurity researcher at Rapid 7, resides in the modern aircraft's implementation of CAN (Controller Area Network) bus—a popular vehicular networking standard used in automobiles and small aircraft that allows microcontrollers and devices to communicate with each other in applications without a host computer. Rapid7 researcher Patrick Kiley demonstrated that a hacker with

In fact, the Booze is making 4 Years Now. THE SO CALLED MINISTER #JEJE_ODONGO IS EATING UP HIS WORDS. https://www.facebook.com/100009314063577/posts/2144001102587004/?app=fbl If you have forgotten this off your memory, here is the flashback about it. I took the pictures on that fateful day, and perhaps it has knocked almost 2 years now. On 17 August 2016, Puppet Minister Jeje Odongo said, "Kayihura shall not go to Court over his summon on flogging Opposition Activists". Then, On July 2018, when Kayihura was Airlifted and unconstitutionally detailed over yet to be publicly know Charges, the same fuddle Jeje Odongo said, "Kayihura has a Case to answer". Two different statements at different times from the same person, giving a phishing indication for Ugandans. Eating like grasshoppers in a jug.

Government Chief Whip Ruth Nankabirwa has mockingly told people at a public rally (dominated by the youth) that her plan is to be an MP for another 25 years and there is nothing citizens can do about it. Nankabirwa, who Salaam Musumba recently accused of being drunk on power during a TV program, was speaking in Lyantonde at a place called Ryakihura in equally power-hungry James Kakooza’s Kabula County Constituency. Female NRM supporters showing their leaders some love during the greater Masaka tours which Nankabirwa used to declare her wish to run another 25 years The GCW, who has been MP since leaving school in the 1990s, is continuing to have her stranglehold on Kiboga district which she represents as Woman MP. She took the mantle from Rhoda Kalema (an old UPM lady she has since forgotten) who first introduced her to the President. Nankabirwa used to be one of the nice-looking young ladies that would be called upon to serve on the high table whenever the H.E. visited Kiboga which

Denying Opposition Coverage. The national broadcaster, Uganda Broadcasting Cooperation and its managers are to face financial penalties and jail term for to failure give fair and equal coverage to all presidential candidates in the general elections. According to the proposed electoral reforms tabled by Government on the floor of Parliament last week, failure to adhere to electoral laws will land the broadcaster a maximum fine of 500 currency points (Shs 10m). New subsections (1a) and (1b) are being introduced to reinforce the Presidential Election Act Section 24 (1) which says candidates shall be given equal treatment on state owned media. “Section 24 of the principal Act is (should be) amended by inserting immediately after subsection (1); (1a) A State owned media house that contravenes subsection (1) commits an offence and is liable, on conviction, to a fine not exceeding five hundred currency points,” says part of the amendment. Also, the responsible UBC manager or super

This is an Old article Published on 20 May 2014 and i am just Sharing it as a Reminder for Those Who Still Have Trust in Museveni Organised Presidential Elections (Democracy), Legislature and Judiciary. Transition of New Government will Never be Achieved through these Channels and Arms of Government. Uganda government tells opposition to ‘wait until 2056’. The government of Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni, already one of Africa’s longest-serving leaders, on Tuesday told the country’s opposition that it would have to wait until 2056 before it stood any chance of winning an election. Government spokesman Ofwono Opondo said the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) “is in for a long journey with Ugandans” under 69 year old Museveni, who has led the impoverished east African nation since 1986. “However much the opposition tries, they will not win any elections because they do not have a proper programme for Uganda. Probably they will have to wait up to 2056, when they are

The AI-powered photo-morphing app that recently gone viral for its age filter but hit the headlines for its controversial privacy policy—has been found collecting the list of your Facebook friends for no reason. The Russian-made FaceApp has been around since the spring of 2017 but taken social media by storm over the course of the past few weeks as millions of people downloaded the app to see how they would look when they are older or younger, or swap genders. The app also contains a feature that allows users to download and edit photos from their Facebook accounts, which only works when a user enables FaceApp to access the social media account via the 'Login with Facebook' option. As you can see in the screenshot above, besides requesting for access to your basic profile information and photos, FaceApp also fetches the list of your Facebook friends "who also use and have shared their friends' lists with FaceApp." Have you yet asked yourself why this app ask

The continued use and growing of Tobacco in W. Nile has attracted criticism from Public Health Activists. In a fresh public outreach campaign in Arua, the Activists under the umbrella of Uganda Health Communication Alliance – UHCA, have described tobacco use as a dangerous product to human health, which can eliminate the lives of not only its direct consumers but also the innocent children in the womb. Gladys Chaiga from UHCA says Arua still stands high in tobacco growing and usage, making it inevitable for the team to renew their anti-tobacco use. Health Care Cost fact sheet of Tobacco use in Uganda 2017 shows that 108.05 Billion Shillings is spent on the direct cost of treating diseases attributed to tobacco use, while the net cost of Tobacco use stands at 117.66 Billion shillings annually. Catherine Adok, regional coordinator campaign for Tobacco-free kids East Africa says Uganda, which has very good laws on the continent must implement the laws to regulate tobacco use and

Police officers in control rooms of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) security cameras shall be prosecuted in police disciplinal tribunal for sharing footage to civilians. Asan Kasingye, the Chief Police Commissar (CPC) and Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIGP) said all officers in CCTV monitoring rooms have no legal permission to share clips to civilians because such footage must only be accessed by forensic experts. Kasingye says there are scenarios where civilians have gone to police stations and CCTV monitoring rooms demanding for footage captured about certain criminal activities or accidents. He warns officers not to succumb to such pressures because they would face it rough afterwards. Police say sharing footage to civilians without police authority does not only jeopardise investigations but puts life to suspects captured in a traffic offence or criminality at risk. Kasingye emphasizes his argument citing an example of an accident that occurred at Jinja road but

These People are Crazy Puppets and Hypocrites. The Minister for Kampala, Kamya has Saturday said that "People Power", an opposition pressure group led by youthful legislator, Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu alias Bobi Wine as well as Dr Kizza Besigye led "People’s Government" should be banned and their activities quashed. Kamya who was hosted on Top Radio’s ‘Negwozadde’ talkshow moderated by Steven Dunstan Busuulwa, said these organizations are not registered which makes them illegal. He said the leadership uses the groupings to incite the public. “Bobi Wine is running an unregistered political organization. People Power and People’s Government are non existent in our laws. As a country, we went into multiparty dispensation, but these people are undermining it,” Kamya noted. “Unregistered political organisations like People’s Government and People Power should be banned since their leadership uses them to incite violence,” said Kamya. She observed that four-ti

Uprooting the Thieves and Cronies. Minister Anite directs finance ministry to audit UTL The State Minister for Privatization and Investment, Evelyn Anite has directed the Internal Auditor in the Ministry of Finance to conduct an audit on activities of the Uganda Telecom Limited (UTL). “Arising from H.E the President’s letter ref: PO/10 dated 16th July, 2019 addressed to me, to institute an audit of UTL activities, I’m accordingly directing you to conduct an internal audit of UTL activities and evaluate the state of affairs within a period of one month,”  reads part of Anite’s letter dated 24th July 2019. She further cautions that the internal audit on UTL must be comprehensive to confirm or clear the allegations before President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni. President Museveni in a letter dated 16th July 2019 directed the State Minister Anite to carry out an audit in the activities of UTL because there are some allegations made against the managers of the Telecom. “This i

Opposition figures Col Dr Kizza Besigye and Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine have been dragged to the Constitutional  Court for establishing and operating unregistered political organizations. The two are also being accused of using these organizations to carry out activities that are constitutionally a reserve of duly registered political parties. The petitioner, Mr Ntare Adens Rutaro, wants court to declare the activities of both the “People Power” movement under Bobi Wine and Col Besigye’s “People’s Government” as unlawful. Ntare, through his lawyers of Newmark Advocates claims the two organizations are currently “mobilizing political activities and membership with a view of influencing political process, sponsoring a political agenda and offering a platform to candidates for election to political offices and participating in governance” Such, he notes, is a reserve of duly registered political parties and organizations as stipulated under Article 72(2) of the Constitution o

Friday 26 July 2019. Your Android Phone Can Get Hacked Just By Playing This Video. Are you using an Android device? You should be more careful while playing a video on your smartphone—downloaded anywhere from the Internet or received through email. That's because, a specially crafted innocuous-looking video file can compromise your Android smartphone—thanks to a critical remote code execution vulnerability that affects over 1 billion devices running Android OS between version 7.0 and 9.0 (Nougat, Oreo, or Pie). The critical RCE vulnerability (CVE-2019-2107) in question resides in the Android media framework, which if exploited, could allow a remote attacker to execute arbitrary code on a targeted device. To gain full control of the device, all an attacker needs to do is tricking the user into playing a specially crafted video file with Android's native video player application. Though Google already released a patch earlier this month to address this vulnerability, a

Former Security Minister and historical, Lt Gen. Henry Tumukunde has said President Museveni has never been supported by one third of the population and indeed statistics from previous elections indicates that since 1996 half of registered voters didn’t contribute to the latter’s successive victories. Appearing on NTV On The Spot, on Thursday evening, few hours after ChimpReports exclusively breaking a story that he is eyeing presidency, Tumukunde said divergent views, and particularly those against Museveni, existed since the early days of the regime. “He (Museveni) has never got or reached 80 percent of votes. Even in 1996 Ssemwogerere got almost 30 percent,” said Tumukunde. In the 1996 president elections 27.4 percent of voters did not turn up for elections and out of the 72.6 percent who voted, 75.5 percent gave it to Museveni while 22.3 percent and 2.2 percent casted their votes for Paul Kawanga Ssemwogerere and Mohamed Kibirige Mayanja respectively. From the above statis

Controversy as NRM MP Rejects Bobi Wine's People Power Appointment Kyadondo East member of parliament Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine has officially announced his presidential bid in the 2021 elections. Since turning to politics about two years ago, the musician-cum legislator has often remained coy about his presidential ambitions, usually giving half answers on the matter. But at his home in Magere, Gayaza, Kyagulanyi said he’s ready to take on long time President Yoweri Museveni. Museveni has been in power since bombing his way to power in 1986. His closest challenger has always been Rtd Col Kizza Besigye in elections that have often been marred by rigging and several electoral violations as confirmed by courts in 2016, 2011 and 2015. Besigye and Kyagulanyi have been in talks over the 2021 elections. “On behalf of the people of Uganda, I am challenging you [Museveni] to a free and fair election in 2021…We’re ready to kick Museveni and his cronies out power in 2021

Tumwine attacks parliament- "I can do anything to you, even your useless Parliament & God can't touch me". A bitter exchange among lawmakers yesterday ended with Parliament unanimously demanding that the security minister, Gen Elly Tumwine, appears before the committee on rules and privileges. Tumwine is accused of allegedly using foul language against the institution he serves and its head, Speaker Rebecca Kadaga. Besides the accusation of challenging the authority of both Parliament and the Speaker, Tumwine is also accused of allegedly attempting to attack Dokolo Woman MP Cecilia Ogwal. It was Atkins Katusabe (Bukonjo West MP) who opened a floodgate of indictments against Tumwine, when he said following security shoot-to-kill instructions on civilians that were protesting the closure of Milamwa abattoir in Kasese district, he contacted Tumwine to save the situation, but he simply rubbished Parliament. “When I asked him (Tumwine) to rein

In his revelations,  he told the ambassador that he did not put his life on the line for others to take over. He emphasized that his people are still venerable should he relinquish power. This comes at the heels of a vigorous campaign now taking place in Uganda regarding the removal of age limits to allow him rule for life. "This is our African politics, survival of the fittest" Museveni told the ambassador.  He went on to say that if he decided to leave power he would be subjected to lawsuits that could eventually lead him to prosecution.
