CVE-2026-34474 covers a pre-auth credential disclosure in ZTE ZXHN H298A 1.1 and H108N 2.6 router web interfaces. The short version: an ETHCheat branch returns credential-bearing HTML before authentication. The captured fields include the admin password, WLAN PSK, and ESSID, and a companion wizard endpoint exposes serial data. The writeup keeps the PoC output redacted and focuses on the response behavior, affected scope, and disclosure trail.
I tried to remove my data from a website that used a company called "FaceTec" for verification and "security reasons". They forced me to verify but for some reason it did not pass, I then escalated to support, and after some back-and-forth [the support rep sent me a photo of a FaceTec dashboard used to store people’s biometrics,](https://ibb.co/x8YJ4G3s) it showed that my verification was denied, and showed mine and other people’s faces. I've blurred them but that part was kind of scary and surprising. So, alongside Discord and Persona, it seems that this 'FaceTec' also stores biometrics (at least on the client side). I looked into their policy later and it appears to be the case. This isn’t the first time something like this has happened, last year a company sent me a video of a Zendesk session after I kept complaining about my data, not sure why both reps would do this thought.

The danger is in normal things now - updates, apps, cloud buttons, support chats, trusted accounts. AI

After my last post on the death of the 90-day window ([https://blog.himanshuanand.com/2026/05/the-90-day-disclosure-policy-is-dead/](https://blog.himanshuanand.com/2026/05/the-90-day-disclosure-policy-is-dead/)), the loudest critique I got was: 'Great complaint, what's the proposal?' This is the proposal. It is an informal RFC on how we actually have to change engineering architecture when LLM-assisted bug hunting means the exploit lands before the patch. No magic vendor tools, just strict egress rules, ephemeral infrastructure (burning containers every 12 hours) and rootless runtime sandboxing. Curious to hear where you think this approach breaks down.
Every detection program starts with LSASS dump detection. Most stop there. The problem: an attacker who hits ASR LSASS protection, PPL, or Credential Guard pivots to techniques that never touch LSASS. Kerberoasting, DCSync, SAM hive extraction, and DPAPI abuse each target a different credential store, generate different telemetry, and need a different rule. If you only detect LSASS access, you detect only the attacker who didn't adapt. I wrote up the 5 credential access techniques we see most often in real environments, with the actual KQL and Sigma rules for each: **1. LSASS memory access** — filtering on GrantedAccess mask (0x1010 vs 0x1000) instead of process name. Process name exclusions break on renamed binaries. The access mask doesn't lie. **2. Kerberoasting** — Event ID 4769 with encryption type 0x17 (RC4). Legitimate Kerberos uses AES. A burst of RC4 TGS requests from one source = Kerberoasting. Threshold: >3 unique services in 5 minutes. **3. DCSync** — Event ID 4662 with the three replication GUIDs, from a non-DC. This is near-zero false positive if you maintain a DC allowlist. Any non-DC requesting DS-Replication-Get-Changes is a confirmed incident. **4. SAM/NTDS extraction** — command-line patterns: `reg save` targeting SAM/SECURITY/SYSTEM hives, `ntdsutil` IFM creation, `vssadmin create shadow`, `esentutl` copying ntds.dit. DeviceProcessEvents with ProcessCommandLine matching. **5. DPAPI secrets** — the one nobody covers. Browser passwords, WiFi creds, RDP saved passwords are all DPAPI-protected and all extractable without touching LSASS. Credential Guard doesn't protect DPAPI. Monitor access to `%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Protect\` by non-system processes. Full writeup with copy-paste KQL, a Sigma rule for Kerberoasting, MDE IdentityQueryEvents alternatives (for environments without DC log forwarding), and false positive analysis for each: [https://training.ridgelinecyber.com/blog/credential-access-detection-beyond-lsass/](https://training.ridgelinecyber.com/blog/credential-access-detection-beyond-lsass/) Happy to answer questions on any of the rules or tuning approaches.

Until this past weekend, a contractor for the Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) maintained a public GitHub repository that exposed credentials to several highly privileged AWS GovCloud accounts and a large number of internal CISA systems. Security experts said the public archive included files detailing how CISA builds, tests and deploys software internally, and that it represents one of the most egregious government data leaks in recent history. On May 15, KrebsOnSecurity heard from Guillaume Valadon , a researcher with the security firm GitGuardian . Valadon’s company constantly scans public code repositories at GitHub and elsewhere for exposed secrets, automatically alerting the offending accounts of any apparent sensitive data exposures. Valadon said he reached out because the owner in this case wasn’t responding and the information exposed was highly sensitive. A redacted screenshot of the now-defunct “Private CISA” repository maintained by a CISA contractor. The GitHub repository that V
AudioHijack: adversarial audio attacks on generative voice models transfer from open weights to Microsoft and Mistral production systems
Interesting new research you may have heard of on attacking large audio language models. The attack is called AudioHijack and the part worth paying attention to is that adversarial clips built against open models transferred to commercial Microsoft and Mistral systems sharing the same architecture. OpenAI and Anthropic are harder targets but the team thinks shared open-source audio encoders are a viable path in, and they're working on it. The manipulations are shaped to sound like natural reverberation instead of added noise, so you can't really hear them. Threat model only requires controlling the audio the model processes, not the user's prompt. So: poisoned YouTube clips, music, voice notes, Zoom audio fed to transcription, and the team also says they've gotten this working against live voice chats in real time (unpublished). Six attack categories demonstrated. Refusing user requests, returning false info, inserting malicious links, swapping persona, claiming it can't process audio, and triggering unauthorized tool use. On the technical side, two things stood out to me. First, generative audio models tokenize the input, which kills the fine-grained gradient signal older adversarial audio work relied on, so they approximated it. Second, they explicitly hijack the attention mechanism by scoring how much attention the model pays to the adversarial audio vs. the user instruction and feeding that back into the optimization. Defenses are where it gets bleak. Few-shot prompting with examples of malicious instructions cut attack success by 7%. Self-reflection caught 28%. Monitoring internal attention patterns was the only thing that actually worked, and an attacker who knows about it can dial back the attention manipulation and take a small hit to success rate to evade it. Microsoft acknowledged the work and pointed at developer-side mitigations. Mistral didn't respond. Text prompt injection at least leaves visible artifacts. Audio doesn't, and we don't really have a good story for this yet. Thoughts?
I am working on a pre-MVP evidence readiness artifact and would value practitioner feedback on the output model.
Hello. I've shared feedback and blog posts before —some of you may remember-. For some time now, I've been developing a project related to the industry (CS & DFIR/IR), and thanks to the valuable feedback I've gathered from you, I've made significant progress. I'm now in the phase of pre-MVP validation and gathering expert opinions. Thank you in advance, and I apologize if I've caused any inconvenience. Question: The artifact is generated from existing security records and public fixture data. It includes source summaries, reliability reasons, limitation statements, manifests, hash lists, and package verification output. Scope boundaries: - it does not claim legal admissibility; - it does not prove original source truth; - it is not a SIEM, DFIR lab tool, threat detector, or forensic acquisition tool; - it focuses on ingestion-onward integrity and handoff clarity. The question is not "would you buy this product?" The question is whether this kind of package would help during IR, audit, insurance, legal, or internal investigation handoff. Specific feedback I am looking for: 1. Are source reliability and limitations clear enough? 2. Does the artifact separate package integrity from upstream source trust? 3. What uncertainty is still hidden? 4. What would make this misleading or unusable in practice?

Overview Three vulnerabilities have been discovered in the SGLang project, two enabling remote code execution (RCE), and one regarding a path traversal vulnerability. In order for an attacker to exploit these vulnerabilities, the multimodal generation mode must be enabled, and an attacker must have network access to the SGLang service. No patch is available at this time, and no response was obtained from the project maintainers during coordination. Description SGLang is an open-source framework for serving large language models (LLMs) and multimodal AI models, supporting models such as Qwen, DeepSeek, Mistral, and Skywork, and is compatible with OpenAI APIs. Three vulnerabilities have been discovered within the tool and are tracked as follows: CVE-2026-7301 The multimodal generation runtime scheduler's ROUTER socket contains a sink that calls pickle.loads() on incoming messages, enabling RCE when exposed to the internet. This vulnerability is distinct from CVE-2026-3060 and CVE-2026-3059, which would be open to the Internet via the ZMQ broker, which automatically binded to all network interfaces without user awareness. CVE-2026-7301 is exposed to the internet by default through the scheduler host, which binds to 0.0.0.0 by default. CVE-2026-7302 The multimodal generation runtime is vulnerable to an unauthenticated path traversal vulnerability, allowing an attacker to write arbitrary files anywhere the server process has write access, by including ../ sequences in the upload filename when sent to specific endpoints. CVE-2026-7304 The multimodal generation runtime is vulnerable to unauthenticated remote code execution when the

Came across this really interesting analysis of a pirated Android movie streaming APK called NetMirror and honestly didn’t expect it to go this deep. At first glance the app looked completely normal: clean UI, React Native based, movies streamed properly. But the analysis found: * emulator/sandbox detection for Genymotion, Nox, BlueStacks, VirtualBox, etc. * Base64-encoded infrastructure domains hidden inside the Hermes JS bundle * staged permission handling for SMS and call log access * WebView credential interception hooks * native libraries containing the same tracking infrastructure references The most interesting part was how it bypassed automated analysis. Hybrid Analysis apparently marked it as “safe” because most of the suspicious logic wasn’t in the Java layer scanners usually inspect — it was hidden inside the React Native Hermes bundle and native libraries. Pretty solid example of how modern Android malware is starting to exploit analysis blind spots in cross-platform frameworks.

Presently sponsored by: Report URI: Guarding you from rogue JavaScript! Don’t get pwned; get real-time alerts & prevent breaches #SecureYourSite It's a hot topic, the old "pay or don't pay" for hackers not to leak your data. Since recording this a few days ago, we've had Grafana go with the "no pay" approach , and I've seen a raft of commentary around other companies reaching "agreements", which is a much politer way of saying "we paid extortionists a ransom". I'm concerned about the normalisation of ransom payments, and using language that deflects from the criminal nature of it is a big part of that. Instructure's exact words were that they "reached an agreement with the unauthorised actor involved", which really waters down the severity of the whole thing. It looks like, for the time being, "pay or leak" is the new norm... along with nonsensical statements like "the data was returned to us" 路♂️

After months of work, I’m excited to finally share [Brovan](https://github.com/AdvDebug/Brovan), my user-mode binary emulator. Brovan can emulate: \* PE binaries \* ELF binaries \* Memory dumps \* Even partially unknown or unrecognized binaries The goal is to make binary analysis, malware analysis and general binary research more flexible by giving full control over execution, memory, and runtime behavior in a contained environment. Building this involved a lot of work around emulation, syscall handling, memory management, binary loading and parsing, and there’s still much more to improve, but it’s finally at a stage where I’m happy to share it.

Hey everyone - I built a DFIR tool called **RDPuzzle** and would really appreciate feedback from people who have worked with RDP bitmap cache artifacts. It is a local, browser-based workspace for reconstructing 64x64 RDP cache tiles into larger readable images. The main thing it adds is **neural-assisted reconstruction**: instead of only manually placing tiles, RDPuzzle ranks likely neighboring tiles and can auto-stitch regions using edge-similarity scoring plus a local ONNX edge-matching model. Main features: * Loads RDP cache fragments, including BMC/BIN-style inputs * Manual and semi-automatic tile reconstruction * Neural-assisted neighbor suggestions * Auto-stitching of likely adjacent tiles * Fully local/browser-based processing * OCR for recovered text * Session save/load, undo/redo, and image export * Demo dataset included GitHub: [https://github.com/BZDaniel/RDPuzzle](https://github.com/BZDaniel/RDPuzzle) Live version: [https://bzdaniel.github.io/RDPuzzle/RDPuzzle.html](https://bzdaniel.github.io/RDPuzzle/RDPuzzle.html) Remember to enable AI at the top right corner, and also i currently only recommend running the smaller AI model as the large one needs quantization to run realistically in a browser. I’d especially appreciate feedback on workflow, validation concerns, parser edge cases, false-positive matches, and anything that would make it more useful in real forensic work.
