Did you think XSS is dead? So did we...
We couldn't be more wrong.
XSS is back with a vengeance! 💥
Combined with OAuth, the Salt-Labs team performed a full account takeover on several major online platforms.

For example, when using this technique on hotjar.com/ - we got access to screen recordings from millions of users worldwide 🤯
Hey @elonmusk, our team at Salt Labs just released some very concerning security issues in the ChatGPT ecosystem, which may put a lot of data for a lot of users at risk.
Time for OpenAI to step up their security game, don't you think?
Full report: salt.security/blog/security-…
Check out our latest research. This time, flaws in GenAI ecosystems and several issues in ChatGPT and its integrated plugins.
Kudos, @AviadCarmel, for this wonderful research.

Just discovered a full account takeover on Grammarly.com, Vidio.com and more using a new OAuth attack technique.
This is the last part of the OAuth trilogy; in total, we could take over 1+ BILLION accounts!

Down the OAUth rabbit hole we go...
This time it's a framework issue potentially affecting hundreds of online services, including sites like Codecademy and others...
More exciting targets are coming next... stay tuned and secure your OAuth implementations!

Just discovered Mandiant has an Urban Dictionary entry. Fantastic stuff. Huge if true. urbandictionary.com/define.p…
Vulnerability disclosure with non-technological companies (eg not ms, oracle, meta, etc) is lightyears away in terms of how the reporters are treated.
Doing that for a while now, I’ve had a potential law suit from a Fortune 500 company, and insulting responses in many other cases
