bitflip

Flip bits in files.

tldr

If you want to flip bits in files, this utility has got you covered. Flip specific bits, randomly flip a single bit, or spray hell all around..! Whatever rocks your boat, as long as you need some bits flipped.

Usage

Example usage

$ echo hello world > /tmp/hello.world
$ cat < /tmp/hello.world
hello world
$ bitflip random  /tmp/hello.world
2020/04/09 17:40:55 flipping 2th bit of byte 6 in file "/tmp/hello.world"
$ cat < /tmp/hello.world
hello sorld

From here, sky is the limit!

Why not flip 0.1% of the bits in your MySQL DB file?

bitflip spray percent:0.1 /var/lib/mysql/mydb.idb
