Development, staging and production had different rules, with human intermediaries making judgments about what was ready to move forward. Testing also assumed that software would behave predictably when executed again. Coding agents are upending both assumptions. Developers…

As AI model training and distillation increase, AI tokens are becoming a piping hot currency for threat actors. Cloud hosting provider Railway found out the hard way; it has confirmed a near 26-hour battle against attackers targeting AI provider credentials to sell to AI ‘transfer stations’ for use in model distillation. The crooks generated about $740,000 in fraudulent AI usage charges using the stolen credentials and potentially had access to up to…

Microsoft researchers have found that rewriting fewer than 10 rarely used neurons in an open-weight AI model can turn any agent built on it into a sleeper backdoor that runs an attacker’s commands on cue, with no retraining required. Researchers from Microsoft Research and Microsoft Red Team described the technique called Lazarus in a research paper. It modifies dormant neurons in a model’s final feed-forward layer to recognize a trigger and inject…

A configuration file meant to store local command permissions on Anthropic’s Claude Code is exposing thousands of API keys, database credentials and other secrets, according to findings by GitGuardian.

Of those, 5343 were still valid when GitGuardian detected them. The exposed credentials include database…

Old access persists beyond its intended purpose and most organizations never monitor it. New access rights arrive within a day of a request. Old rights get revoked, if they get revoked at all, only upon prompting someone. Tools that assist employees in confirming, rotating and vaulting their service accounts have taught me again and again that removing access has to be as thoughtful as granting access. Security professionals can bridge this chasm with…

Just over a year ago, before advanced AI models began discovering software vulnerabilities at a nearly unmanageable scale in the so-called vulnpocalypse, three industry experts pioneered the concept of “VulnOps.” VulnOps, as envisioned by Heather Adkins, Gadi Evron, and Bruce Schneier, is a significant phase in the evolution of AI-assisted cyber defense in which vulnerability research and remediation would become scalable, repeatable, automated, and…

This short blog post is about abusing a privilege escalation bug that Microsoft recently fixed in Windows, CVE-2026-66804, that I and 14 others reported. This issue is an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-50343, a bug dubbed “Dark Elevator” by Calif. The root cause of the bug was a dangling COM object registration for the CrossDevice COM object with the CLSID {E9F83CF2-E0C0-4CA7-AF01-E90C70BEF496}. A COM registration typically needs two parts: a server…

Many security bugs are race conditions, where multi-threaded execution has to occur with the right interleaving for a negative effect to appear.

Mutational grammar fuzzing is a fuzzing technique in which the fuzzer uses a predefined grammar that describes the structure of the samples. When a sample gets mutated, the mutations happen in such a way that any resulting samples still adhere to the grammar rules, thus the structure of the samples gets maintained by the mutation process. In case of coverage-guided grammar fuzzing, if the resulting sample (after the mutation) triggers previously unseen…

Just saw a new (to me) URL in our honeypot data today:

Our honeypots use "Cowrie" to collect SSH data. With the emergence of the "sshole" vulnerability last week, we are now seeing an increase in attempts to exploit the vulnerability. Our data is a bit limited in this respect. Our honeypots collect only the first 255 characters of SSH passwords. Longer passwords are highly unusual and not used for the usual password brute-forcing we observe.

This morning, I was browsing our honeypot data for any new and existing PHP exploit attempts. Instead, I first ran into some GeoServer exploits, but found them to be too boring to write up. This Cisco IOS exploit attempt was a bit more interesting. Still nothing new. I suspect this is for CVE-2023-20198.

It’s hard to believe how lucrative this crime can be: According to a press release from the United States attorney’s office for the southern district of New York, three men ­ Jacob Soall, Sharon Hazan, and Guy Sheetrit ­ were arrested for using AI to alter and impersonate the voices and images of executives and attorneys at various companies in order to convince employees to send over large payments. Soall and Hazan were arrested in Spain over the summer,…

It’s a bad one, and it’s been in the code for a decade: A newly disclosed flaw involving OpenSSH and musl, dubbed “*sshole,” allows attackers to log in to certain Alpine Linux and other musl-based Linux accounts configured to block password authentication simply by entering an oversized password. “Oversized” means longer than 256 bytes. Details. Slashdot thread. And another news article.

Two weeks ago, I attended the [un]prompted AI security conference in San Francisco. It was an excellent event: three days of very dense talks about all aspects of AI security. (My talk was about integrous AI, and I will post it when it is online.) AI security can be divided into three broad topics. It’s important for researchers to understand which one they are working on. And it’s important for us as a community to work on them all. They are: security of…

News story: “Scientists discover a bizarre Jurassic ‘squid’ unlike anything ever seen.” Scientists have identified the “fattest” belemnite ever discovered, a bizarre, barrel-shaped squid relative that lived in Wyoming’s ancient seas 160 million years ago. The exceptionally rare fossils reveal a creature unlike anything previously known, potentially a predator of smaller squid-like animals and a surprising survivor of a supposedly vanished family. As…

This is fascinating: The video describes a technique that can reveal where an otherwise unidentifiable recording was made by analyzing its audio for the faint sounds of passing aircraft. The technique is both fascinating and frightening. It works by looking at Doppler curves, which plot the way a plane’s sound changes as it passes overhead because of the Doppler effect. This is the same familiar Doppler effect that causes the frequency of a siren to rise…

In both a 2021 essay and my 2022 book, A Hacker’s Mind, I talk about AIs finding vulnerabilities and exploits—hacking—the legal system. Here’s some demonstrations of this from Germany: Legal systems encode the foundations of social order in natural language. Similar to computer systems, the written law can contain vulnerabilities that invite exploitation.1 Courts absorb most exploits through interpretation, and such vulnerabilities rarely surface in the…

A comment: 3% of ‘critical’ software security bugs, in all of recorded history, have been found in the last month. This is on pace to find another ~100,000 bugs this year alone, adding ~26% more vulnerabilities to the all time total Do you realize how fucking insane that is? Yes. It is a new world out there.

Neat video: The sighting, announced September 2, marks the first time anyone has spotted a live bigfin squid, which belongs to the Magnapinna genus, in the northeastern Pacific Ocean. As usual, you can also use this squid post to talk about the security stories in the news that I haven’t covered. Blog moderation policy.

This story is interesting: One Civic owner purchased a cheap aftermarket head unit off Amazon, and decided to have Claude work its magic on it, like it would a smart TV. What was reportedly discovered isn’t surprising, but is worth knowing about. Among the pre-installed bloatware—­or spyware, if you’re being less charitable­—was a voice assistant equipped with WebView, an Android system component that lets apps display content off the web. This apparently…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 04 The Apache Struts2 Tiles plugin version <=7.4.0 (and >=6.3.0) codebase includes a `ViewPreparer` construct, replete with multiple ViewPreparer factories, that contains several important vulnerabilities including unsynchronised, unbounded caches. The lack of proper synchronisation means that certain factories will create caches that race, risking lost cache entries, corrupted internal bucket states under…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 04 unixODBC versions <=2.3.14 contain a rude truncation of a 64-bit `SQLLEN` `buffer_length` to a 32-bit `int` without verifying that it produces a valid, positive value. The result is later passed to `memcpy`, causing the information system to crash or, if carefully chosen, enabling attackers to write adjacent memory under certain circumstances (e.g., a buffer length that wraps to a small positive integer…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 04 The unixODBC driver manager library contains multiple races of importance / interest, including a set of data races in the connection-pooling configuration state data that can cause one thread to read a half-written pool-size or timeout value, which can lead to a variety of harmful effects, as well as a race between teardown and error-handling functionality that can result in double-frees and…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 04 unixODBC versions 2.3.14 and below contain multiple heap buffer overflows, underflows, and over-reads. Attackers who can influence various arguments passed thereto can trigger the heap-based buffer overflows inside of the unixODBC driver manager itself, potentially corrupting the shared heap state across connections, crash the driver manager (thereby causing denial of service conditions, multi-tenant…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 01 Description Apache Struts2 Core version 7.4.0 and below attempt to prevent arbitrary code execution via Object-Graph Navigation Language (OGNL) through several different mechanisms but only in a cursory fashion -- the libraries only guard against immediate calls evaluated by the OGNL engine via `SecurityMemberAccess`, but an allowed call that, instead, accepts nested arguments and, itself, invokes…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 01 Description The Apache Struts2 Core 7.4.0 and below performs session token comparisons cryptographically insecure early-exit comparison functions (e.g., `!=`, `memcmp`, byte-by-byte loops with `break`) that return as soon as the first mismatched byte is encountered. The execution time of the comparison is therefore proportional to the number of leading bytes that match, creating a measurable timing…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 01 Description The Apache Struts2 Spring Plugin opens a Spring `ApplicationContex` via a try-with-resources block and, outside of said block, then continues to use the closed resource, resulting in an uncaught `IllegalStateException`. This particular issue prevents proper functionality and indicates poor code quality and code review standards and processes, while not being, itself, otherwise excessively…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 01 Description Apache Struts2 Core version 7.4.0 and below fails to properly prevent integer overflows, causing wrap-arounds and other issues on a downstream forced casting into types smaller than `BigInteger`. Importantly, this finding underscores why all applications using Struts and other such platforms should perform their own input validation checks and not blindly assume that the upstream Struts2 code…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 01 Description Apache Struts2 Core version 7.4.0 and below's `FetchMetadataInterceptor`, `CoepInterceptor`, and `CoopInterceptor` each compare their `exemptedPaths` configuration -- a per-interceptor-reference, administrator-supplied set of paths intended to exempt specific actions from the corresponding cross-origin protection -- against `HttpServletRequest.getContextPath()`. `getContextPath()` is fixed…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 01 Description The Apache Struts2 REST Plugin's (version 7.4.0 and below) `ContentTypeInterceptor.intercept(ActionInvocation)` only deserialises a request body and enforces the `struts.rest.content.maxLength` bound when `HttpServletRequest#getContentLength()` returns a positive value. `getContentLength()` returns `-1` whenever the `Content-Length` header is absent, which normal and appropriate for any…

Posted by Daniel Owens via Fulldisclosure on Nov 01 Description The Apache Struts2 REST Plugin's `DefaultContentTypeHandlerManager.getHandlerForResponse(HttpServletRequest, HttpServletResponse)` splits the `Accept` header on commas and passes each resulting token directly to `findHandler(String)` without trimming leading or trailing whitespace. `findHandler(String)` only retries a trimmed lookup when a token contains a semicolon (`;`), so a token that…
