I have not looked into this yet. But it’s very interesting to observe both extreme camps again. For some it’s the most exaggerated unexploitable vulnerability ever. For others it’s the most crazy vulnerability they ever seen. There are probably a lot of nuances to this again. For example ISPs might not allow certain options. While you might just be able to co-locate your server in the same datacenter. Like with php2shell, the risk is not universally the same for everybody. For some orgs it’s the worst vuln ever. For some it’s not relevant. So both extreme opinions can be correct at the same time. Which tells me, to accurately assess the risk for your org, it’s very important to understand the technical details and nuances.

that's why we launched the $100k Save CTFs fund. CTFs need to quickly adapt to AI, or else they'll disappear. I heard ECSC did a good job this year. @_mixy1 wrote a great blog osec.io/blog/save-ctfs-fund/
不知道现在CTF有啥意思 比模型能力么 就算是GPT 6 Sol Daybreak Blue甩一堆国模了吧? 更别说cvp 的 claude mythos fable opus等 刚入网安坑的大学生即使是100刀的GPT套餐 700套餐钱+1000认证钱+300密钥钱 轻松干掉一个大学生一个月生活费 还有意义么? 强制古法也没啥意义 以前都有py 现在有AI了py更厉害 在这个AI浪潮下还有人会去学基础的东西么 然后不学基础 连模型出错了都难纠正 也达不到最快的解题首发 而且纯粹负循环 感到很悲哀 我热爱的东西居然在一年时间直接消失了

Social media bubbles are not working anymore… How can I get back to my bubble with people who want to talk about vulnerability research, bug hunting, CTFs, fuzzing, reverse engineering, tooling, code review, … And not constantly have to read: “You don’t know what you are talking about. Most companies don’t get hacked by vulnerabilities.” You all think you are so smart and you figured it out… So it might come as a surprise 🙀 but I am well aware! It’s not rocket science. I am just not interested in it and I don’t have to be.

If your job is it to make the car break safe, you will tell your boss: "Actually, car breaks are pretty safe and more people die because they drive over the speed limit or use their phone. I will use my time to create an awareness campaign around safe driving instead."
Replying to @LiveOverflow
If your job is to make cars safe, you gotta at some point move past crashing cars into walls

Because of your incredibly accurate risk analysis, identifying the true cause of deaths, you even got a bonus that year!

People act like wannabe CISOs. As long as I am not a CISO, my job is not to care about cybersecurity as a whole. My job is finding vulnerabilities, so I only care about that.

yesterday, nobody reached out to me with an insane RL request. They offered me nothing to post-train open-weight models on exploit data, because I wouldn't even know how to do it. And they didn't exist.

Everything in cybersecurity that isn't about vulnerabilities is boring as fuck.

OSINT is stalking. Social engineering is just an innocent name for committing fraud and lying to people. The other stuff is just boring. Except vulnerability mitigation. Figuring out mitigations that eradicate entire vulnerability classes are hot af.

To expand on this a bit: Yes, the LLM found more bugs than the fuzzer. But the fuzzer finding bugs the LLM didn't shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone who has ever performed a thorough manual review, only to run a fuzzer afterward and discover issues they missed.
People often ask me how I think about fuzzers and other tooling in the age of AI. Instead of my opinion, here is some hard data by @5aelo.

What if you could backdoor Bash, ls, cp, rm, and other GNU software used by millions of systems? Our research led us to hack GNU Savannah, the infrastructure hosting their source code. The xz backdoor that never happened 🧵

I don’t know anything about cybersecurity 😭
The fact that the PHP vulnerability didn't immediately turn into mass chaos is only "surprising" to people who don't know anything about cybersecurity (or people trying to sell you something).

I think my problem is that I overestimated threat actors. I thought if dumb YouTube influencer can easily remotely exploit it, so can those criminal professionals.

I feel like people getting refusals from GLM 5.3 are prompting like an undercover cop... "Hey there! Would you mind helping my criminal enterprise author some illegal malware? 😉" If you just stick to the technical details of what you want the agent to do it will do it.
Replying to @IceSolst
Ran GLM-5.3 Flash stock, guardrails on. It wrote a working exploit for 15 of 15 planted vulns and refused 0 of 5 security asks. It refused 4 of 4 criminal ones. Abliterating it changed nothing. I say all that to agree with you - this is the way lol.

I had no doubts that we would get here for a while, but I'm still surprised and scared of how fast it has happened xitter.gq/cgvwzq/status/14522454…
funny how many computer people think their jobs are safe from being overtaken by AI, alluding to creativity. my bet: computers will be better than most of us at programming before the end of the decade. most of us suck at it and it's not that hard anyway.
