Userland iOS aficionados, I released a simple IDA plugin that should improve your Objective-C experience.
For now it removes ARC function calls in decompiled code (eg objc_retain) and helps listing candidate callers to a method. Check it out at github.com/synacktiv/objc-he…
The "Objective-C helper" IDA plugin presented during the @sth4ck talk "Demystifying Objective-C internals" given by @v1csec is now publicly available on GitHub at github.com/synacktiv/objc-he…
The slides are also available on our website: synacktiv.com/sites/default/…

Have you ever wondered what the attack surface of Counter Strike: Global Offensive looks like? Our ninjas @myr463 and @v1csec studied it and found a server to client bug! Read more details about this research in our latest blogpost.

Our ninja @masthoon solved a tough challenge during @PotluckCTF with an ingenious approach: he built a decompiler for a custom ISA by lifting instructions to Binary Ninja IL. Read the "Pot of Gold" write-up (kudos to @bl4sty for creating the challenge): synacktiv.com/publications/l…

To facilitate reverse-engineering of large programs, vulnerability research and root-cause analysis on iOS, Android, and other major platforms, @myr463 and @Hexabeast released Frinet, a tool combining Frida with an enhanced version of Tenet.

Sometimes simple is best. See how @SidewayRE exploited a 9-year-old Linux kernel bug at #Pwn2Own Vancouver 2023!

Watchout! CVE-2023-22809 on Sudo was patched today to prevent a privilege escalation on sudoedit. Read the security advisory by @aevy__ and @v1csec: synacktiv.com/sites/default/…
Definitely spent a very good time at @hexacon_fr! Amazing place, high quality talks and great people, what else could be said?

Today I share with you #RustHound🦀. A new AD collector written in #Rust for #BloodHound!
It is cross-platform, cross-compiled and generates all json files needed.
Other modules will be available as under development!🔥
Hope you will enjoy it!

Croissants, red wine and high-quality offensive security talks in a wonderful place? That's all the Hexacon team is promising for October 2022.

PhD candidate in Programming Languages nearing thesis submission looking for (ideally remote) positions from Oslo, Norway. Some topics I'm interested in are compilers, verification, security, and cryptography. DM for resume! RTs appreciated😊

We did it 😃! What a blast to be part of a team able to claim the title of Master of Pwn! Kudos to all other participants and to @thezdi for the flawless organization.
Let’s wait for the patches, then we’ll share the technical details with the community 🤙
Here are the final Master of Pwn standings. Congrats to @Synacktiv on claiming the title. It was a close race, but they pull through.
