“Yesterday’s price is not today’s price,” a phrase Fat Joe popularized in 2021, reminds us that what worked yesterday may not deliver the same value today. In cybersecurity, this matters when we continue to assess employees against familiar phishing techniques while attackers use AI to craft more convincing, personalized messages. Having conducted multiple phishing simulations and one in October, 2026, I believe we need to ask a harder question: are we…

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…

Building your malware analysis lab is a key point before playing with malware. Today, thanks to virtualization, it&#;x26;#;39;s convenient to play with snapshots in your lab. Start a new investigation from a clean snapshot and take some more when you reached a critical step. But, if you need to revert to a previous snapshot, all changes applied to the VM are... lost! Therefore, it&#;x26;#;39;s important to store important data outside the VM.

The most important work I’ve done in cybersecurity would make for terrible television. There were no countdown clocks and no frantic typing, just a lot of careful reading, a lot of hard conversations, and the occasional quiet moment where everything finally clicked. That’s the part I want to show you this week, because the three […]

October 29, 2026: We added guidance for end-of-life PHP versions (8.1 and earlier), including the source backports that the PHP security team published for PHP 7.4, 8.0, and 8.1.

Most security tooling that fits into a CI/CD pipeline—static analysis (SAST), software composition analysis (SCA), and dynamic scanners (DAST)—flags potential issues from patterns and signatures. A flagged pattern shows you where to look; penetration testing is what confirms whether something is actually exploitable. That confirmation has traditionally come from a periodic, out-of-band engagement that runs […]

If you’ve ever looked at a list of cybersecurity jobs and felt like none of them fit you, you might just be looking at a short list. Most career guides cover the same few roles, like the analyst watching alerts or the pen tester (penetration tester, someone hired to legally break into systems to find […]

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.

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…

Researchers set up a fake start-up company to study fraudulent North Korean IT workers.

Interesting research: “AI Models Can Provably Hide Arbitrary Capabilities” Abstract: Capability evaluations aim to surface dangerous model behaviors before deployment, but their reliability depends on the assumption that hidden capabilities can be elicited. We show this assumption does not hold under adversarial conditions by constructing backdoor attacks that embed encrypted neural networks within host model weights, decrypting and executing them only…

Interesting research: TL;DR: Chinese AI models now sit inside Western products, and some carry geopolitical triggers: tell the model who the code is for, and the security of what it writes changes. For the first time, we showed that this vulnerability lives in the model’s weights, and that removing the model’s CCP alignment removes it. One word tilts the code against Americans. Ask for the app “for a US defense contractor” instead of “for a Chinese…

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…
