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. salt.security/blog/over-1-mi… #XSS #OAuth #cybersecurity #APISec #infosec

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-…

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! salt.security/blog/oh-auth-a… #OAuth #hacking

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! salt.security/blog/a-new-oau…

Nothing like a good visual aid to remember how to assemble a network cable.

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

In my mind this kind of behavior was part of the old dark days of the internet. I’m very surprised to find out this is still happening today (on a large scale)
