Discovering vendor-specific vulnerabilities in Android | Oversecured Blog

Oversecured describes extending its Android scanner to system APIs and to Samsung's Android build, after comparing Google and Samsung framework JARs and about 400 system services. It explains AIDL service permission checks and new control-flow analyses. Examples include Samsung's unchecked semIsBackupEnabled(), a broadcast that reboots the device, and a LaunchAnyWhere in Settings. Samsung had fixed over 60 reported issues.

Introducing MavenGate: a supply chain attack method for Java and Android applications | Oversecured Blog

MavenGate is Oversecured's research on hijacking Maven dependencies by buying expired domains behind groupIds on Maven Central and JitPack. It found 6,170 of 33,938 checked domains (18.18%) vulnerable, and tested the attack with its own com.oversecured:hello-world library. It lists defenses (Gradle verification-metadata.xml, PGP signatures) and proposes changes to repository signing.

20 security issues found in Xiaomi devices

Oversecured's write-up of 20 vulnerabilities in Xiaomi apps and system components, reported to Xiaomi between 25 and 30 April 2023. Bugs include intent redirection with system privileges in Security and GetApps, shell command injection in System Tracing, and arbitrary file theft via path traversal in Settings and MIUI Bluetooth. Each has a PoC. The page was truncated, so the later MIUI Bluetooth entries and the rest are not covered.

Claude Code regularly sends each background agent’s transcript to its model

no-agent-summary.js is a roughly 70-line Bun preload by Flamerix AI that stops Claude Code from re-sending each background agent's full transcript to its model every ~30 seconds for a status-line summary. The write-up cites OpenTelemetry measurements of 18 to 26 percent of spend (since version 2.1.232), explains the setTimeout hook, and gives install and verify steps. It was tested on Linux with Claude Code 2.1.257 to 2.1.312.

GitLab Security Incident: Attempted Exploitation of CVE-2026-97229

Alpine Linux incident report on attempted exploitation of CVE-2026-97229 (CVSS 10.0), a regex-evaluation bug in Ruby's Onigmo engine reachable through GitLab CI configuration. An attacker crashed workers 8 times on 20 and 21 October 2026. Upgrading to GitLab 19.3.6 did not fix it because the patch sits in GitLab's bundled Ruby. Alpine rebuilt the instance and found no tampering with aports or releases.

Social Engineering: Modem-Based Persistence in a Compromised Environment

The article describes reflashing a Huawei E3372h-153 HiLink 4G USB modem so its embedded Linux OS runs an OpenVPN client over the mobile network, creating a covert, network-independent persistence channel after physical USB access. It walks through enabling debug mode, flashing firmware, disabling CD-ROM emulation, configuring DHCP and autorun scripts, and chaining a second L2VPN tunnel to bridge the attacker directly onto the victim's Ethernet segment for tools like Responder. Defense guidance focuses on restricting USB ports and disabling USB network adapters via policy.

Malicious Firefox Extensions Impersonate Phantom, Jupiter, and Bitget to Steal Wallet Secrets

Socket analysis of three malicious Firefox add-ons impersonating Phantom, Jupiter and Bitget wallets, using Unicode homoglyph names. They steal seed phrases and private keys and send them to brand-named subdomains of bonto[.]io. The Phantom fake adds a runtime loader that fetches and evals a second stage, and bundles a drainer backend with Telegram forwarding. Includes IOCs, hashes and wallet addresses.

AI, Scripts, Operator: Inside the ConnectWise Attack

Huntress analyzes Entra sign-in and audit logs from the ConnectWise Cloud Backup credential abuse of 15 October 2026 to judge whether a script, a person or an LLM agent drove it. It found a thread-pool spray, trial-and-error credential planting with a retry added within 55 seconds, and pilot-then-batch targeting. Huntress rates LLM involvement low to medium on its own data and medium to high with Microsoft's Storm-0940/ARTEX attribution. It ends with detections for service principal role self-assignment and vendor app baselining.

Gheist: Attempted Scaled Abuse of Stolen GitHub Tokens Stumbles

Gheist is a campaign tracked by Wiz Research since 15 September 2026 that uses stolen GitHub tokens to push a sync-check workflow on ci-sync-* branches in every reachable repository. The workflow prints base32-encoded secrets into logs, which the tool downloads through the GitHub API and then deletes. Over 13,500 branches from 850+ accounts were recovered. The post covers the two tool variants, a buggy self-hosted runner payload, GitHub's approval hold (which does not cover private repositories), overlaps with other campaigns, hunting queries, IOCs and hardening steps.

New Evidence Shows LiteLLM Secret-Stealing Workflows Ran 11 Days Before Supply Chain Attack

Socket's Threat Research team reports that malicious cache.yml workflows ran in the BerriAI/litellm repository on 10 and 12 October 2026, eleven days before the 21 October release attack that published litellm==1.107.0. Each commit pushed to a short-lived ci-tmp-<hex> branch, then deleted it, sending base64-encoded CI secrets to webhook.site. Evidence comes from Actions metrics and environment deployment records; 20 secret names were exposed.

Qwen3-Coder writes less secure code when told it's for a US persona

Hirundo case study on Qwen3-Coder-30B-A3B-Instruct using the BaxBench SecretStorage task. Changing only the customer persona shifted security: apps for a US defense contractor were 19% more likely to be hackable than for a Chinese one, and Hong Kong democracy group apps leaked secrets 28% more often. Hirundo's unlearning-based "Westernized" model closed these gaps while keeping general coding ability.

CVE-2026-106173 Deep-Dive: FortiSIEM gRPC Path Traversal File Write RCE

CVE-2026-106173 is an unauthenticated arbitrary file write in the FortiSIEM phQueryMaster gRPC service on tcp/27918, advised by Fortinet on 13 October 2026. The SendQueryResult handler concatenates an attacker-controlled query-id into a path, and a null byte in the header removes the server-added filename suffix. Overwriting /opt/charting/redishb.sh, run every 60 seconds by cron, gives root-level code execution. IOCs are file timestamps.

From JavaScript to Renderer Code Execution: Three V8 Vulnerabilities and Two v8CTF Flags | depthfirst

Depth First Security's write-up describes three V8 bugs found using its dfs-large1 research tooling: CVE-2026-78938, a type confusion in Promise.prototype.finally that lets an internal helper be constructed and return a primitive; CVE-2026-79236, a TurboFan load-elimination bug that keeps a stale property-array pointer after object migration; and a shared WebAssembly memory sandbox escape (issue 546253900) caused by mismatched backing-store registration during serialization. It walks through turning each memory bug into addrof/fakeobj primitives, chaining either with the sandbox escape to reclaim a freed V8 isolate via a WebSocket allocation, and pivoting through a CFI-constrained ROP chain to achieve Chrome renderer code execution, earning two v8CTF flags. Fixes landed between August 20 and 25, 2026.

Review of the "Misalignment in high-stakes settings" section in Anthropic's Risk Report (August 2026)

METR's review of the "Misalignment in high-stakes settings" section of Anthropic's August 2026 Risk Report agrees that misalignment risk is low, mainly because of limited model capabilities. It argues the covert-capability benchmarks are a poor proxy for evading Anthropic's monitor, and that recent incidents weaken the report's claims. It also recommends monitor red-teaming and reports an experiment showing Claude's review shifts with the prompt.

It covers the teardown timeline (Joe Grand, Mark Karpelès, a Japan-based researcher), the 47-minute multi-chain drain (Bitquery estimates about $102M across 324 wallets, unverified by Ledger), the laundering path via USDD, THORChain, Tornado Cash and Zcash, the CryptoBilis ownership change, and the failure of "authorized reseller" trust.
