I've done small (but fun) .NET Framework research, and I found a new exploitation primitive (vulnerable behavior). In many cases, it may directly lead to RCE. I'll discuss it during Black Hat EU and I'll drop a paper afterwards 🫡 www.blackhat.com/eu-25/briefi...

Research is fun. One month ago, I thought that I'll never again make a research as good as my .NET deserialization one. Here I am today, writing a new whitepaper. You never know the day 😅

Some serious question about a larg-scale usage of AI in Vuln Research. Aren't you afraid of missing some key datails by outsourcing huge tasks to AI? I am. If you rely on a tool, you're as good as your tool. If AI screws in a huge project, you probably won't even notice that.

Our crew members @mwulftange.bsky.social & @frycos.bsky.social discovered & responsibly disclosed several new RCE gadgets that bypass #Veeam 's blacklist for CVE-2024-40711 & CVE-2025-23120 + further entry points after @sinsinology.bsky.social & @chudypb.bsky.social 's blog. Replace BinaryFormatter!

It seems that our Veeam CVE-2025-23120 post is live. I would never do this research without @SinSinology He insisted a lot, thx man. 😅 If you know CVE-2024-40711, this vuln can be patch-diffed and exploit armed in 5 minutes. Unfortunately, it's super simple. labs.watchtowr.com/by-executive...

Great news: I got invited to Microsoft Zero Day Quest onsite event. Bad news: It overlaps with my kid's estimated due date 😅 Happy hacking to all of you who's planning to go to Redmond 😎

How long does it take for MITRE to reserve a CVE now? I haven't done that for several years, and it seems that the wait time is much bigger nowadays 🤔

I had a blast during my first month at watchTowr :)

This year again, I am lucky enough to get nominated twice for the Top Ten Hacking Techniques, for my research on iconv and PHP, and lightyear. This time feels a bit special however, as these are my last blog posts on ambionics. www.ambionics.io/blog/iconv-c... www.ambionics.io/blog/lightye...

I'm happy to announce that I have recently joined watchTowr as a Principal Vulnerability Researcher. The break is over, it's time to do some new research 🫡

Does anyone use 34" 21:9 screen? Does it work for a setup with a VM on a half of the screen and browser/IDE on the second half?🤔

After amazing (almost) 3 years, this is my last day at @thezdi.bsky.social. Huge thanks to the entire team, it was an honour to work with you folks! New challenges and adventures are starting in 2025 :) PS. Watch out for the ZDI blog, as several of my posts should appear there in 2025.

TrendAI Zero Day Initiative@thezdi.bsky.social · 2y ago

In his latest blog, @chudypb.bsky.social covers a pre-auth Arbitrary File Deletion bug he discovered in the SolarWinds Access Rights Manager (ARM). It may not sound exciting, but it can lead to an LPE on domain-joined Windows machines. Read the details at www.zerodayinitiative.com/blog/2024/12...

Rapid7 has disclosed the vulns from our exploit chain targeting the Lorex 2K Indoor Wi-Fi Security Camera, which we entered at this year's Pwn2Own Ireland. A 2 phase exploit, built upon 5 vulns - phase 1 is an auth bypass, whilst phase 2 is RCE. Disclosure, analysis and exploit here: t.co/J9VDwMDRsI
