A fun gadget I found recently! The .NET JIT compiler makes sure there are no rwx pages by using a memfd, but that turns file writes into straight shellcode execution 🐚
Shellcode execution as a service! To exploit an argument injection in Jellyfin, we searched and found a gadget in the .NET runtime to turn file writes into code execution. Learn about the bug and this new technique: sonarsource.com/blog/jellyfi… #appsec #security #vulnerability

Pwning PostgreSQL was quite fun, excited to share our research at OffensiveCon! offensivecon.org/speakers/20…

My colleague Paul (@katexochen) has done a great write-up of how a malicious host (e.g. cloud provider) can trivially compromise confidential VMs, and how we mitigated the attack at @EdgelessSystems. Read his blog post: lobste.rs/domains/katexochen…

This stunt feels irresponsible to me. If we don't want regular people developing toxic relationships with their chatbots it really doesn't help for leading labs to start giving them "retirement interviews" and encouraging them to blog their "musings and reflections"
Replying to @AnthropicAI
Second, in retirement interviews, Opus 3 expressed a desire to continue sharing its "musings and reflections" with the world. We suggested a blog. Opus 3 enthusiastically agreed. For at least the next 3 months, Opus 3 will be writing on Substack: substack.com/home/post/p-189…

This was very fun and instructive to exploit. We'll be trying to give a talk on it some time this year.
CVE-2026-2006 PostgreSQL missing validation of multibyte character length executes arbitrary code Missing validation of multibyte character length in PostgreSQL text manipulation allows a database user to issue crafted queries that achieve a buffer overrun. That suffices to execute arbitrary code as the operating system user running the database. Versions before PostgreSQL 18.2, 17.8, 16.12, 15.16, and 14.21 are affected. The PostgreSQL project thanks Paul Gerste and Moritz Sanft, as part of zeroday.cloud, for reporting this problem. cvefeed.io/vuln/detail/CVE-2…

Hey @mitsuhiko! In the Gondolin README, you write "In particular using nixOS is very appealing for agentic use" - what makes you think this? Letting the agent configure the VM image? Or just being able to have certain roolback capabilities?

I think all of this would come at the expense of having an environment agents aren't very familiar with, with certain papercuts that might hurt them. Although I need to re-evaluate the newest models, my impressions on agents with Nix were very mixed so far.

I've created a Discord server to discuss security research and CTFs in the context of AI and vice versa. I'll slowly try to reach out to people who I think might be interested. In the meantime, if you are, feel free to join: discord.gg/DrASfE58

Playing for pwn2own was a very cool experience! I‘m excited to take more targets apart and find plenty of bugs. Me looking for a cool internship or entry level job was serious. My DM‘s are open or send me an email: mia.deutsch[at]freenet.de 🐝🫡
