Rekt - SingularityNET - RektSingularityNET exploit (19 September 2026): attackers with signing authority exposed through a cloud infrastructure breach drained 8.72M FET from the Ethereum bridge converter, then minted about 2.3 billion AGIX, NTX, WMTX and CGV. Rekt's transaction-level reconstruction puts gross liquid proceeds near $2.29M, not the $16.77M headline, and traces laundering via Chainflip, Baltex and THORChain. It notes conversionIn() skipped checkLimits() and trusted a single EOA signature.

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.

The Blue Agent POV: Investigating Multi-Platform Data Exfiltration Across AWS and GitHubWiz walks through a case study of its "Blue Agent" autonomous SOC investigator tracing a compromised CI/CD service account (svc_automation) across AWS and GitHub. The attack chain: a stolen GitHub token cloned 18 private repos containing hardcoded AWS keys, which were used to authenticate to AWS from Kali Linux via a Zenlayer VPN IP, pivot to a second account, run SSM SendCommand against a production Windows domain controller, and stage custom Python exfiltration scripts (mssql_table_export.py, pg_table_export.py, billing_export2.py) in S3 to pull data from MSSQL, PostgreSQL, and billing systems. The piece details the investigative technique used - 30-day baseline comparison, ASO/IP dispersion across the tenant, and correlating CloudTrail management-plane events with S3 data-plane events and GitHub audit logs.

AI Agent Sandbox Flaw in brig: Symlink Traversal (CVSS 8.2) | Blog | Endor LabsEndor Labs researcher pkennedy details GHSA-wp6x-29qx-fpr7 (ENDOR-VUL-2026-1809, CVSS 8.2, CWE-59), a symlink-traversal flaw in brig, a tool that runs AI coding agents inside microVM/container sandboxes. While brig's shared working directory was carefully guarded against symlink swaps, the user-named project directory was passed to the underlying runtime (Virtualization.framework on macOS, containerd/nerdctl on Linux) as a raw unresolved path; an agent could replace a subfolder it already controls with a symlink to any host directory, which is then mounted read-write into the sandbox on the next run, exposing SSH keys, cloud credentials, and other projects with the operator's privileges. Fixed in brig 0.3.0 by resolving and holding the path open before mounting; the piece includes full PoC commands, root-cause code snippet, and a detailed vendor disclosure/CVSS negotiation narrative.

How we found 24 Android vulnerabilities using our open source AI security agentGitHub Security Lab describes custom "taskflow" prompts built on their open-source Taskflow Agent to hunt Android app vulnerabilities, reporting 24 findings to date. It walks through two concrete chains: an exported, unprotected MapActivity in OsmAnd that lets any app silently import settings and exfiltrate the user's exact map tile/route coordinates to an attacker server, and a hostname-parsing logic bug plus overly loose cookie-domain check in the Wikipedia Android app that lets a wikipedia:// deeplink load an attacker page (e.g. evil-wikipedia.org) and steal long-lived session cookies for account takeover. The post also candidly notes where LLMs struggle (false positives, mis-estimating severity, missing mitigating factors) versus where they excel (deep knowledge of safe/unsafe API patterns).

The bugs cluster into categories including system UID-1000 privilege escalation, PendingIntent hijacking, intent redirection, implicit IPC/broadcast leakage of sensitive data, path traversal in system-privileged apps, and insecure WebView JavaScript-interface exposure via deep links; several were found in leftover debug/testing apps (FactoryCamera, Configuration Update) shipped with system privileges and no access controls. Some findings were also tracked under Samsung's own SVE identifiers (SVE-2023-1112, SVE-2023-0760, SVE-2023-0928).

EarlyAttestationBleed Paper Review (TEE attestation bugs)A Flashbots researcher reviews the EarlyAttestationBleed paper (Muhammad Usama Sardar and Songbo Bu), which uses ProVerif formal analysis to uncover three attestation-verification bugs in confidential-computing deployments: Cocos AI's TDX verifier fails to actually compare the REPORT_DATA value despite computing it correctly, Cocos AI's SEV-SNP validator skips the comparison entirely when an empty expected-input value is passed, and Edgeless Systems' Contrast workload-policy logic can be tricked into accepting container images from untrusted host-controlled storage due to a rebase mistake. All three were implementation bugs (not protocol design flaws) and have since been fixed; the post also summarizes the paper's broader concerns about "early attestation" — exposing hardware details pre-authentication, lack of post-handshake re-attestation for long-lived sessions, and handshake-timeout tradeoffs from added attestation latency.

Part 2 of a Huntress series on AD RMS shows how any Service Group member can export the deployment's root SLC private key via the admin SOAP surface's Trusted Publishing Domain (TPD) operation, then use it to offline-decrypt any document the cluster has ever protected — no server contact required. The author goes further, forging XrML Rights Account Certificates signed with the stolen SLC key to trick a live AD RMS server into issuing genuine use licenses for arbitrary/impersonated identities (a "hybrid" of a Golden Ticket and Silver Ticket), and releases the SharpRMS tool that implements extraction, decryption, and RAC forgery. Because the SLC key has a 255-year certificate and no rotation mechanism, the compromise is permanent for all previously protected content, unlike KRBTGT which can be reset to invalidate forged Kerberos tickets.

Dirty Frag (CVE-2026-43284): the Linux kernel bug that turns read access into rootAikido's analysis of "Dirty Frag," a set of Linux kernel bugs (CVE-2026-43284 in IPsec/XFRM ESP, CVE-2026-43500 in RxRPC, and the later variant CVE-2026-46300 "Fragnesia") that let a low-privileged local attacker write to the page cache of a read-only file they can only read, such as /usr/bin/su, and escalate to root. It explains the missing shared-memory check in splice()-fed ESP/RxRPC code paths, why the flaw reaches most kernel versions and distros via backports, how it enables container-to-node escapes in Kubernetes, and gives concrete host exposure checks (uname -r, lsmod grep for esp4/esp6/rxrpc, sysctl user.max_user_namespaces) plus detection guidance via audit logs and EDR.
