Thank you to @UnpromptedAU & @BSidesCbr for inviting me to speak. Being back down under was lovely! You can find the slides for my n-day automated pipeline talk here. I’m at OAIC this week if you want to chat about exploit dev in 2026 and beyond. beautiful.ai/player/-P2q0r-B…

Boom! @chompie1337 wastes no time kicking off #Pwn2Own Berlin in style. She requires just a few second to get code execution on the NV Container Toolkit. She heads off to the disclosure room to provide all the details.

See you all next week...excited to present with @breakfix at #BHEU! 💣
SCOM monitors critical systems, but insecure defaults make it a powerful attack vector. At #BHEU, @unsigned_sh0rt & @breakfix show how to abuse SCOM for credential theft, lateral movement, and domain escalation, plus how to defend it. ghst.ly/4aoggph

Ever been on an SCCM site server and *this* close to a DA pw that you couldn't decrypt for some reason? Check out my new blog looking at encryption in use within SCCM sites configured for High Availability and accompanying tooling to recover passwords: ibm.com/think/x-force/decryp…

What happens when the User-Account-Restrictions property gets misconfigured? Spoiler: It's not good. From account compromise to full domain takeover, @unsigned_sh0rt breaks down why this permission set is more dangerous than most realize. ghst.ly/4mKgycH

Azure Arc is Microsoft's solution for managing on-premises systems in hybrid environments. My new blog covers how it can it be identified in an enterprise and misconfigurations that could allow it to be used for out-of-band execution and persistence. ibm.com/think/x-force/identi…

Last week we added ELEVATE-4 github.com/subat0mik/Misconf… to Misconfiguration Manager. tl;dr If SCCM uses AD CS for PKI, client auth certs are "borrowed" by clients during OSD. This will typically be a distribution point but could be the site server in all-in-one deployments...

New blog from me about a bug in Power Apps that allows execution of arbitrary SQL queries on hosts connected through on-prem data gateways. This can turn external O365 access into compromised on-prem SQL servers. ibm.com/think/x-force/abusin…
