We’re back, melting - we’ve tried shouting, screaming, and throwing things at the Sun, and it is just not working. Before we begin our analysis, we want to be clear - given the number of vulnerabilities fixed (and some not mentioned..), we’ve struggled to have confidence in our attribution of “vulnerability specific CVE ID”. We’ve performed some informed, uninformed, random guesses - but as usual, please resist the urge to send us emails explaining how awful/wrong we are. We know some of you can’t resist, so please rest assured that we do read them, print them, and frame our favorites each month. Like the individual who emailed us 5 times to tell us that they were older than Telnet. Given that Telnet is newer than SSH (which we replied to tell you (your follow-up emails were caught by our spam filter, sorry)), we knew you were lying to us. As always, watchTowr clients gain industry-first access to our research days before publication to validate their exposure, accompanied by Active Defense capabilities to autonomously mitigate exposure.

Hey all! I’m kicking around a product idea and trying to figure out if the problem is actually worth solving. The general idea is around IT/helpdesk/security impersonation. Basically, if someone reaches out to an employee claiming to be from IT or security and asks them to do something, how does that employee actually know the person is legit? I’m not selling or advertising anything, just trying to get honest feedback from people who deal with this stuff in the real world. If you work in security, IAM, IT, helpdesk, GRC, etc., I’d really appreciate it if you took a few minutes to fill this out: [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdOnYbBwCmqwpCcdDPDJcKB9IkJ7Vv-MHqwYZuCG6lsE\_Pyjg/viewform?usp=header](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdOnYbBwCmqwpCcdDPDJcKB9IkJ7Vv-MHqwYZuCG6lsE_Pyjg/viewform?usp=header)

Overview The GamersFirst Anti-Cheat (GFAC) driver GFAC.sys contains multiple local privilege escalations and denial-of-service vulnerabilities stemming from insecure handling of user-controlled input through a minifilter communication port. A local attacker can abuse these flaws to perform arbitrary kernel memory writes, obtain privilege escalation to SYSTEM, or trigger a system crash. Description GFAC is a proprietary anti-cheat software developed by video game publisher Little Orbit. GFAC includes a kernel-mode driver, GFAC_Sys_x64.sys , that exposes privileged functionality to user-mode applications through a minifilter communication port. Although these low-level interfaces are necessary for the software's operation, vulnerabilities can arise if user-mode access is not properly restricted and validated. CVE-2026-12166 GFAC_Sys_x64.sys contains a NULL pointer dereference condition in its initialization and request handling logic. A local attacker can trigger the vulnerable code path, causing the driver to read or write to a memory address assigned as NULL. Successful exploitation results in a system crash (“blue screen of death”). CVE-2026-12167 The minifilter communication port that GFAC_Sys_x64.sys exposes does not enforce sufficiently restrictive security descriptors. As a result, low-privileged users can establish connections to the driver and access functions intended only for trusted processes. [RM1.1][MB1.2][RM1.3]User access to privileged functions could help an attacker take advantage of other weaknesses in the driver. CVE-2026-12168 GFAC_Sys_x64.sys processes messages received through a minifilter communication

We’re running Patch the Planet , an ongoing collaboration with OpenAI that pairs Trail of Bits engineers directly with more than 30 open-source projects. Its goal is to front-run a serious problem facing open-source maintainers: highly capable models like GPT-5.5-Cyber will soon create a firehose of bug reports, and OSS maintainers are already spread thin. Our plan is to point OpenAI’s latest models at real codebases, find the security bugs first, work with maintainers to patch them, and find ways to decrease the burden on maintainers in the long run. We’ll publish field reports like this one as the initiative progresses; follow along via the Patch the Planet tag. The expertise barrier that kept bespoke fuzzing campaigns out of reach for most attackers is gone. We watched GPT-5.5-Cyber build in a single day what would have taken weeks for a skilled security researcher : harnesses across a dozen entrypoints, sanitizer and variant builds, seeds, and multiple findings currently undergoing coordinated disclosure. This particular instance focused on zlib , a widely used data format and lossless data compression software library. We pointed GPT-5.5-Cyber at the library and drove it through Codex with the /goal command, asking it to find a specific class of bugs that are critically dangerous in compression libraries.

Mozilla remains committed to maintaining a secure, trustworthy, and transparent Web PKI. Today we are announcing the publication of Mozilla Root Store Policy (MRSP) version 3.1, effective July 1, 2026. While previous policy updates focused heavily on certificate revocation, automation, and operational resilience, MRSP v3.1 focuses on a different challenge: ensuring that Certification Authority (CA) operations are sufficiently transparent, understandable, and auditable. Trust in the Web PKI depends not only on technical requirements, but also on the ability of Mozilla, auditors, and the broader community to understand how CA systems are designed, operated, and assessed. MRSP v3.1 introduces new requirements intended to improve the quality of CA documentation and strengthen independent assurance of the design and effectiveness of controls that protect CA systems. Improving CP/CPS Documentation Certification Practice Statements (CPSes) and combined Certificate Policy / Certification Practice Statement documents (CP/CPSes) are among the most important public documents published by a CA. They describe how a CA conducts its operations and meets industry requirements. Over the years, we have seen significant variation in the quality, structure, and level of detail provided in CP/CPS documentation. Some documents provide extensive implementation detail, while others rely heavily on incorporation by reference or provide only high-level descriptions of CA practices. The revised policy will continue to require conformance with RFC 3647, as modified by applicable CA/Browser Forum requirements. Improvements to section 3.3 in the MRSP will establish clearer expectations regarding the content and quality of CP/CPS documentation. The new requirements emphasize that documentation must be explicit, bounded, auditable, and sufficientl

Recently I ran into a problem: I needed to analyze a VMware snapshot of a Windows 11 25H2 VM, but the VM had a vTPM, which makes VMware silently encrypt the .vmem/.vmsn/.vmss/.nvram. Volatility just couldn't find the kernel, and I couldn't find any existing tool to decrypt these files for offline analysis. So I reverse-engineered the format with the help of Claude and wrote one. It's called vmem-decrypt (pure Python): \- Recovers the data-file key from the VM password (PBKDF2 → AES-256-CBC key chain VMware labels everything "XTS-AES-256" but it's actually CBC, which trips up most people). \- Decrypts .vmem/.vmsn/.vmss/.nvram. \- Flattens the decrypted .vmem into a flat, Volatility-ready image. (VMware compresses then encrypts, so it's still in a proprietary checkpoint LZ77 layout) Workflow: pull the password hash from the .vmx (VM-Password-Extractor) → crack with hashcat (mode 27400) → feed the password to the tool → run Volatility. Full steps + format notes in the README. Tested on VMware Workstation Pro 26H1 / Win11 25H2 (build 26100), Volatility 3. Feedback welcome, especially snapshots from other VMware versions to test the format against. Repo: [https://github.com/heeeyaaaa/vmem-decrypt](https://github.com/heeeyaaaa/vmem-decrypt) (Yes, I used AI to help build this. It's tested and it works, that's what matters.

The Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is a regulation introduced by the European Union to strengthen cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements. In simple terms, the CRA sets mandatory cybersecurity rules for hardware and software sold in the EU. This includes everything from connected devices (IoT) to operating systems and even stand-alone software. Very important, this concerns any company that wants to sell their products into the EU, regardless whether that company is based in the EU or not. The goal is to ensure that digital products placed on the EU market are secure by design and default and remain secure over time. That also means that the CRA does not stop at the launch of a product. It covers the entire lifecycle from design and development all the way through updates and vulnerability management. It also brings everyone in the product pipeline into responsibility. The CRA entered into force on 10 December 2024 , meaning it is already officially law in the EU, although most obligations are not yet applicable. The implementation is phased. From 11 September 2026 , companies will already need to comply with certain reporting obligations, particularly related to the notification of vulnerabilities and security incidents. From 11 December 2027 , the CRA will be fully applicable. Also, products with digital elements that have been placed on the market before 11 December 2027 are not subject to the CRA unless, from that date, they are subject to a substantial modification. Reporting obligations apply to all products with digital elements that have been made available on the Union market, including those already placed on the market before 11 December 2027. Preparing for the CRA is ultimately not just about interpreting legal text, but about translating regulatory expectations into concrete t
