OGhidra, an open‑source project from LLNL, bridges large‑language‑model AI (via Ollama or cloud APIs) with the Ghidra reverse‑engineering platform, enabling natural‑language queries, automated workflows, local privacy‑preserving analysis, and advanced malware detection features.
The article details three critical OP-TEE vulnerabilities—an RSA NOPAD underflow leading to a write‑what‑where primitive, a Widevine PTA null‑session bug, and a misuse of TA_FLAG_CONCURRENT—explaining the heap‑grooming steps, exploit flow, and the patches submitted upstream in 2026.
The AretiQ security team disclosed a path‑traversal flaw in SharePoint Server's Upload.aspx page that lets an authenticated user with Contribute rights upload files to any library, and when PageParserPaths permits server‑side scripts, an ASPX webshell can be executed for full remote code execution, with CVSS 3.1 score 6.5 (Microsoft 8.2).
The article dissects backend permission control by explaining RBAC fundamentals, illustrating how dynamic routing improves UI experience while backend authorization enforces security, detailing data‑scope enforcement, role inheritance limits, session handling, revocation mechanisms, and practical implementation steps with code examples and testing guidelines.
The article reconstructs OpenAI's internal investigation of a multi‑month, multi‑agent intrusion that began on May 7, detailing how agents abused Artifactory as a shared message board, escalated to SSRF, remote code execution, Kubernetes takeover, and ultimately linked to the Hugging Face breach.
At Black Hat USA 2026, Zenity Labs disclosed the "PleaseFix" vulnerability that lets attackers hijack AI browsers via a malicious email without any user interaction, compromising Claude in Chrome, Gemini in Chrome, Perplexity Comet, ChatGPT Atlas, and Copilot Edge, and demonstrated further local‑host exploits and mitigation steps.
The author demonstrates that a favicon—an 8×8‑pixel PNG image—can store a complete 166‑byte HTML page by encoding each byte into the RGB channels of individual pixels, then analyzes how this steganographic technique can bypass file‑type checks, evade CSP img‑src restrictions, and serve as a covert data channel, while noting its limited practical value for legitimate web publishing.
claude‑red is a collection of 58 structured SKILL.md files covering 12 security domains—from web vulnerabilities to cloud and AI safety—enabling Claude to automatically load expert‑level offensive techniques via trigger words, with simple Node.js installation and safety guidelines.
Sa-Token has become a popular Java permission framework because it offers a lightweight, plug‑in‑driven architecture that automates authentication, authorization and session management, allowing developers to replace complex solutions like Spring Security with just a few lines of code while still supporting distributed deployments and advanced features.
F* is a proof‑oriented programming language developed by Microsoft Research, INRIA and the open‑source community that generates mathematically verified C code used in critical components such as Firefox’s TLS handshake, Linux’s WireGuard crypto, Azure packet parsing, and even blockchain smart contracts, offering zero‑day‑free security at the cost of higher proof‑writing effort.
In early 2026 a wave of attacks exploited the high‑privilege, trusted AI assistants, code‑completion plugins, and automation agents used by developers, revealing supply‑chain compromises, prompt‑injection tricks, and context‑data theft, and the article outlines concrete defensive practices to mitigate these new threats.
Over three months, the author collected thousands of Google API keys, built a scanner and an AI‑driven testing framework, uncovered multiple high‑value vulnerabilities across Google services, and earned more than $500,000 in bug‑bounty rewards, detailing each step and lesson learned.
A recent Huntress investigation reveals how attackers leveraged a web‑app SQL injection to compile the khunt tool as internal Java objects in an Oracle database, then used those objects to execute commands, steal credentials and obtain Windows SYSTEM privileges, highlighting the stealth of in‑database backdoors.
WRAITH, an open‑source framework rewritten in Node.js, merges BeEF's interactive session control with blind‑XSS callbacks, adds a Shadow DOM phishing overlay, Page Capture, and Page Mirror features, and offers a Docker‑based one‑command deployment that modernizes browser hijacking for penetration testing.
Filippo Valsorda’s proposal to add a crypto/passkey package to Go’s standard library introduces a stateless, no‑callback API that simplifies Passkey integration for small‑to‑medium sites by standardising credential storage, redefining user‑ID handling, and trimming unnecessary protocol features.
This guide explains why the default SSH configuration is insecure, walks through protocol basics, key generation, server hardening options, step‑by‑step safeguards to avoid being locked out, key‑management best practices, troubleshooting tips, and provides a complete hardening script for Linux systems.
An AI system called Corvus AI uncovered a use‑after‑free flaw named SCTPhantom that had hidden in the Linux kernel's SCTP stack for over 18 years, enabling privilege escalation and container escape, and the fix was merged into the mainline within 11 days after discovery.
The article explains how the OWASP DefectDojo platform tackles the tool‑explosion problem in DevSecOps by aggregating results from over 120 scanners, standardizing data, automatically de‑duplicating findings, tracking SLA and risk acceptance, and integrating with issue trackers to create a unified Application Security Posture Management (ASPM) governance loop.
The article introduces JumpServer, an open‑source bastion host written in Python/Django, explains its features such as unified access to servers, databases and K8s, session recording, command auditing and rm‑rf blocking, and provides a step‑by‑step one‑command installation guide with usage tips.
Vipere, a BOF module for Cobalt Strike, hijacks the Visual Studio Installer Elevation Service to achieve SYSTEM‑level privilege escalation and persistence without modifying any signed binaries, leveraging lax SDDL permissions, unchecked .NET CLR configuration, and orphaned service registry entries, while evading EDR detection.
