- Next.js dropped a CVSS 9.1 authentication bypass vulnerability (CVE-2025-29927) over the weekend. This flaw is trivially exploitable by sending the header `x-middleware-subrequest: true`. Over 300k hits in Shodan, find more at:
- Orange Tsai (@orange_8361) & @_splitline_'s "WorstFit" research into Windows unicode "BestFit" encoding is 🔥 🔥 🔥 (and mostly unpatched)! blog.orange.tw/posts/2025-01-… This work brings back memories of IIS and ASP (classic) unicode exploit-dev.
- Jacob Sandum posted a detailed and well-written PoC for the IngressNightmare (CVE-2025-1974 ) vulnerability found in the Kubernetes ingress-nginx Admission Controller by Wiz (Woogle!): github.com/sandumjacob/In…
- The researchers who found the Next.js bug (CVE-2025-29927) have released the full paper: Set x-middleware-subrequest to middleware:middleware:middleware:middleware:middleware OR src/middleware:src/middleware:src/middleware:src/middleware:src/middleware
- If you missed this talk at BH/DC last week, it's worth a read: "From Spoofing to Tunneling: New Red Team's Networking Techniques for Initial Access and Evasion". Awesome work from Shu-Hao, Tung (123ojp) covering practical attacks on GRE and VxLAN tunnels: media.defcon.org/DEF%20CON%2033…
- Thank you to everyone who made it out for my DEF CON 33 presentation, "Shaking Out Shells With SSHamble", you can find the materials online at hdm.io/decks/MOORE%20… This deck includes some lightly-censored zero-day (more decks @ hdm.io)
- I'm excited to announce our "Out-of-Band" series; focused on the security risks of management devices like BMCs, serial servers, and KVMs. "Out-of-Band, Part 1: The new generation of IP KVMs and how to find them" is now live at: runzero.com/blog/oob-p1-ip…
- Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow US-ians. This is an annual reminder that Base64 can decode different input to the same output. "Secrets" decodes from U2VjcmV0cw==, U2VjcmV0cw=, U2VjcmV0cw, U2VjcmV0cx, U2VjcmV0c9, and sometimes U2V|jcm|V0c|9. Base64 makes a bad hash or lookup key!
- A PSA for why you should probably not use Postman (it can leak secrets to them):
