strip --strip-all a binary and this still names functions by micro-executing them and matching the effect trace against a corpus. spot check: zlib corpus vs a fully stripped O0 build, it named 9 functions and all 9 were right, and it stays quiet on the ones it isn't sure about (no confident garbage on thunks). where byte sigs (FLIRT) die on recompile and CFG diffing gets fragile across opt levels, behavior holds up better. optimized-vs-optimized is still the hard case, i'm honest about that in the numbers. x86-64 only atm.

built a thing for the "vendor quietly patched a function in v2, which one and does anyone else ship the same vulnerable code" problem. micro-executes each function, records what it does (mem/call/branch effects), fuzzy-matches on that instead of bytes or CFG so it survives recompiles. use case for this sub: index v1 and v2 of a binary, get the changed/added/ removed function list, focus review on what actually moved. x86-64 ELF for now, honest accuracy table + limits in the readme.

So happy to finally release AWSHound with [**Daniel Heinsen**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-heinsen/). Its been a labor of love for the last 6 months and I can't wait to hear how the community uses it! If you haven't heard AWSHound is a free, self-hosted tool that turns AWS accounts and Organizations into real attack path graphs using BloodHound CE. It evaluates IAM policies, boundaries, SCPs, RCPs, and resource policies offline. Showing you what an attacker can actually compromise in your AWS organization.
Overview RDK Central RDK-B WebUI version, rdkb-2025q4-kirkstone, contains multiple vulnerabilities involving memory corruption, improper authentication, race conditions, and insufficient input validation. An attacker with network access to an affected WebUI may be able to bypass authentication, obtain administrative access, cause a denial-of-service condition, or corrupt memory within underlying RDK-B processes. Under certain conditions, this memory corruption may potentially be leveraged for arbitrary code execution. Description RDK-B (Reference Design Kit for Broadband) is an open-source software platform used in broadband gateways and related networking devices. The RDK-B WebUI provides a web-based interface for configuring and administering an RDK-B device. Five vulnerabilities have been identified in the RDK-B WebUI. CVE-2026-19505 JWT (JSON Web Token) authentication in javascript-templates/source/jst_functions.c does not correctly verify whether a token's cryptographic signature is valid. The application treats both a valid signature and an invalid signature as successful verification because it incorrectly checks the return value from OpenSSL's EVP_VerifyFinal() function. A remote, unauthenticated attacker can craft a JWT with an invalid signature that is still accepted by the WebUI. Successful exploitation allows the attacker to log in as the privileged user and gain administrative access to the device. CVE-2026-19506 The login process in /usr/www2/check.jst uses a shared value to store the result of password verification. Because this value is shared between multiple requests, the application may return one user's authentication result to another user's session. An unau
Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a remote Spectre attack against Cloudflare Workers that leaked a JSON Web Token (JWT) from a co-located Worker in the production environment at up to 12 bits per second, 360 times the rate of an earlier attack demonstrated in 2021. The end-to-end experiment used an attacker Worker and a victim Worker controlled by the researchers,
OpenAI on Tuesday revealed that it paused reinforcement learning (RL) training for its latest artificial intelligence (AI) models for two weeks while it shored up additional defenses and increased the scope of its monitoring to avert another Hugging Face-like incident. "As models become more capable, the risks associated with developing and testing them internally also grow," the AI company
After all the hot press for this RCE, we decided to deploy to the wild and see what attackers were actually doing with it!
As per WABT's SECURITY.txt, #2831 issue exists For context: WABT is a Binary Toolkit for WebAssembly developed by [WebAssembly.org](http://WebAssembly.org) (W3C) wasm2c is a tool inside of it, which is used by many projects like FireFox (via RLBox) to compile wasm down to a sandboxed c library, the assumption is the built C code preserves all WebAssembly's sandbox security features. This PoC demonstrates escaping that sandbox.
AI pentesting works, but building it in-house is the hard part. Synack VP Chris Brown breaks down the reliability, token economics, model dependency and validation costs that come with building versus buying an AI pentesting capability. The post AI Pentesting Works. Building It Yourself Is the Hard Part. appeared first on Synack .
A previously unreported cyber espionage operation dubbed SilkParasite has been observed targeting government bodies in Central Asia. The intrusion set makes use of seven remote access tool (RAT) families, five of which have never been previously documented: DriveSilkRAT, CookiETagRAT, NomadRAT, GoginRAT, and NodeEdgeRAT. SilkParasite, first discovered in late 2025, is assessed to be a
I finally found some time to organize my notes on secure boot, remote attestation, measured boot and in general embedded security. This is not ground breaking zero-day research but I figured some of you might like a good story. Good here is obviously subjective but I felt like it came out quite readable. This blog builds heavily on public research so as already stated at the end of article if you liked some particular section, show the respective person some love :) P.S.: yes I know the image is AI generated please don’t give me shit for that
Cybersecurity researchers at Hunt.io have disclosed details of a campaign that they say compromised more than 14,530 Dahua devices between June 17 and July 22, 2026, using credential attacks, two authentication-bypass flaws, and a peer-to-peer (P2P) relay technique. The activity, codenamed Operation CameraSwarm, was reconstructed from a 407 MB exposed working directory containing 2,616 files
Most email defenses still do the job they did a decade ago. Scan the message, look for something malicious, block it. That worked when the danger sat in the payload, a bad link or an attachment. It stopped working when the danger moved into the message's intent, and it is failing now that the sender is no longer a person. From Bad Content to Bad Intent to AI on Both Sides Phishing 1.0 was bad

analysis of a Stripe breach that just dropped, confirmed vendor leaks and claims of 20k compromised apis
\*Headline clarification - the breach involves many Stripe vendors but does not necessarily indicates a Stripe breach! On August 18th, 2026, a data release occurred on the illicit forum pwnforums. The threat actor known as Satanic published sensitive information extracted from hundreds of vendors utilizing the Stripe payment platform. The initial dump released on August 18th contained detailed information pertaining to 669 specific vendors, alongside 1,033 compromised API keys. The volume of the data is reported as 33GB. Hudson Rock researchers spoke to the threat actors minutes after the release of the data. During this exchange, they claimed that the released data represents only a fraction of their total haul. According to the actor, they possess approximately 20,000 compromised Stripe APIs, which they intend to release in subsequent batches.
The people-search tool ClarityCheck says its reverse image search service is “private and secure”—but it left a database containing more than 9 million image files exposed.
Flock’s surveillance cameras have already sparked outrage. WIRED reconstructed its next-generation AI system, already in use by some police, to confirm it goes much further than tracking license plates.
Microsoft Defender Experts have linked more than 30 web domains to MacSync Stealer, a macOS-focused information stealer, after correlating recurring endpoint and network behaviors across changing infrastructure, tracing the malware from payload retrieval through data collection, staging, and exfiltration. The tech giant said it required multiple endpoint and network behaviors to align before

A ransomware affiliate calling itself Ransom Busters has been spotted proactively sending emails to victim organizations and claims to delete stolen data from ransomware groups' servers in exchange for a fee ranging from $20,000 to $60,000. "In these messages, the third-party offers to help the victim recover from ransomware attack. This immediately stands out as anomalous," GuidePoint Research
One advertisement featured a pornographic video with a deepfake closely resembling a prominent US politician. Apple removed the app from the App Store after an inquiry from WIRED.
Author here. I audited NocoBase, Flowise, Langflow, Dify, Activepieces, Kestra, and Airflow and disclosed 14 findings. Every platform inherited the same assumption anyone who can touch a workflow is trusted to run code on the host, which is fine for a dev tool on your laptop but not fine for a multi-tenant HTTP service with an unauthenticated webhook. The chain I'd point people to first is the Flowise one (section 2.2): an unauthenticated request → prompt injection → LLM emits Python → a 38-pattern regex blocklist passes it because the dangerous library was pre-imported before the model was asked anything → RCE. Two vendors closed their reports as working-as-intended, and I tried to represent their position fairly. This research was also presented at DEFCON 34 but now available publicly. Happy to answer questions.

Security researchers at Anthropic and Switzerland's EPFL have demonstrated that self-propagating payloads can spread from one artificial intelligence (AI) agent to the next through the editable system prompt files that autonomous agent harnesses use to carry state between sessions. The work, released as a preprint on August 10, 2026, tests the technique in a simulated six-agent coding
A single piece of infrastructure has been pulling records out of Salesforce and ServiceNow customer portals across multiple industries for more than a year, according to research published this week by agent security platform Reco. The activity, which Reco has named the City Forum campaign after a domain tied to the attacker's IP address, traces back to one server: 158.220.87.79, hosted on a

Presently sponsored by: Report URI: Guarding you from rogue JavaScript! Don’t get pwned; get real-time alerts & prevent breaches #SecureYourSite The current ransomware situation is a bit of a kludge (deep breath): a lot of ransomware (which often doesn't even involve "ware", it's just extortion) is carried out by kids who successfully make a truckload of money but can't spend it without getting caught and the companies they breach rapidly get piled onto by class action lawyers that keeps them busy fighting and being cautious not to say anyting to customers lest that then gets used against them in litigation. That's mostly it; more in this week's video:

It can be daunting to determine who’s responsible for showing ads on the websites we visit, or who’s harvesting data from the mobile apps we use every day. That information is already semi-public, but it is not easily parsed and traditionally much of it has remained walled away in the hands of large advertising platforms. Not anymore: A powerful and free new service called DecryptAds scrapes and correlates this adtech data and makes it simple to quickly learn a great deal about the entities that are tracking you. A Decryptads summary of the advertising partnerships declared by espn.com. The newly launched decryptads.com says it is constantly scraping the files that websites and apps make publicly available to disclose the companies that are permitted to run ads or collect user data. These files include: – ads.txt : all of the adtech companies and data brokers that may run ads or harvest data from the site; – app-ads.txt : entities that can harvest data from or display ads on mobile an
Suddenly, you’re in a room. You look around - oh, you’re surrounded by other new starters at your new job. Yes, it’s Monday, and you’re being onboarded. You know the drill - it’s the typical enterprise “please don’t be a bad person or we may have to fire you” speech. But, you know what’s coming soon. It’s your favorite part of the onboarding process when you’ve started a new role. It begins! The password policy requirements. You straighten your tie, because sure as heck, your SSLVPN credentials will not be the starting point for this organization. Not this time. Not again. You swore to yourself that you’d use a symbol this time. Wait, did they just say NetScalers? The world freezes around you. How are you back in the hellscape? You panic - what does a symbol matter in comparison to the traumatic nightmares you relive every day? You realize the truth - nobody cares whether your password has a symbol or not. It’s already over for you. Welcome back to another watchTowr Labs blog post. It’s been three years since the last publicly documented NetScaler RCE writeup. ChatGPT tells us that today we’re changing that. Exciting. In this post, we’re going to walk through a vulnerability that was resolved as part of a recent NetScaler ADC and NetScaler Gateway Security Bulletin . As part of this bulletin, Citrix subtly? silently? loudly? patched a Heap Overflow vulnerability
