Fake zero-day PoC exploits on GitHub push Windows, Linux malware (www.bleepingcomputer.com)
 

Someone created a bunch of github profiles impersonating real researchers alongside fake Twitter accounts. Pretty fascinating, really.

WWDC23: Passkeys (blog.millerti.me)

BChecks (SDL for defining custom scans) available in Burp 2023.6 (portswigger.net)
 

It's like nuclei templates I guess, but built into Burp. Only available in the Early Adopter release for now.

Every Signature is Broken: On the Insecurity of Microsoft Office’s OOXML Signatures (www.usenix.org)
 

OOXML signatures are rendered pretty much useless due to 3 flaws in specification and 2 flaws in implementation.

"The vulnerabilities have been acknowledged by Microsoft. However, Microsoft has decided that the vulnerabilities do not require immediate attention."

Fortinet tries to silently patch critical RCE, researches burn it (www.bleepingcomputer.com)
 

Timely and ongoing communications with our customers is a key component in our efforts to best protect and secure their organization. There are instances where confidential advance customer communications can include early warning on Advisories to enable customers to further strengthen their security posture, prior to the Advisory being publicly released to a broader audience. This process follows best practices for responsible disclosure to ensure our customers have the timely information they need to help them make informed risk-based decisions. For more on Fortinet’s responsible disclosure process, visit the Fortinet Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) page: https://www.fortiguard.com/psirt_policy.

CS:GO: From Zero to 0-day (neodyme.io)
 

They've chained 4 logic bugs to achieve RCE in CS:GO, pretty impressive. Valve sucks at communication and bug bounty payouts though.

What's your side project of a month? (infosec.pub)
 

cross-posted from: https://infosec.pub/post/48321

If you're working on a research or side project, this is your platform to share your findings, roadblocks, breakthroughs, and more. Doesn't matter if it's still a work in progress or has been recently published - all stages of research are welcome.

Maybe you're not actively researching, but you're closely following an interesting development in the industry or a certain researcher's work - feel free to share that here too!

Or perhaps, you've got an idea for a project or research you wish to undertake, but need resources, collaborators, or simply some guidance - let the community know.

Here's a simple guideline to kickstart the conversation:

  • What's the research about? (Give a brief overview of the project or topic)
  • Current progress/Findings (If applicable)
  • Challenges and roadblocks (What issues are you facing or expect to face?)
  • Help needed (Are you looking for collaborators, resources, advice, etc.?)
