RE: https://mastodon.social/@arstechnica/116442362788989620Funny how we're all going to be "left behind" because of "inevitable" slop generatorsā¦ :blobcateyes: ā¦but somehow nobody is making the same claims about how those who insist on sticking to fossil fuels are already getting left behind by renewables. :blobcatthinking:RT: https://mastodon.social/users/arstechnica/statuses/116442362788989620

A lot of people are apparently happily running a script clearly marked as a root exploit from some random website using curl | bash :blobsweat: Some do inspect the script, but then still run it using curl | bash anyway. :thaenkin: Incidentally, this very relevant blogpost about detecting curl | bash and serving different scripts based on that is almost exactly a decade old:https://web.archive.org/web/20230318063325/https://www.idontplaydarts.com/2016/04/detecting-curl-pipe-bash-server-side/#CopyFail #InfoSec

RE: https://mastodon.social/@quad9dns/116488346000879261The upside is you would get to work on something that really matters and makes a net positive contribution to the world.The downside: you'd have to work with me. :blobcatcoffee: #GetFediHiredRT: https://mastodon.social/users/quad9dns/statuses/116488346000879261

Looks like DE ccTLD is unresolvable due to DNSSEC issue:https://dnsviz.net/d/nic.de/dnssec/š¬ #InfoSec #DNSSEC #DNS #Germany

At this moment, please send #HugOps to folks at DENIC. They are dealing with a really bad and stressful situation and I am sure they are doing their best to resolve it as soon as possible.#DNS #DENIC

Here's a thought:The fact that people are experiencing issues with DE sites and asking if CloudFlare is down speaks volumes about the stability of DE ccTLD and the broader DNS compared to big cloud providers.:blobcatcoffee: #DNS #InfoSec #SysAdmin

Will the rate of vulns being found "thanks to AI" be higher than the rate of vulns being introduced by vibe-coding shit?No. It will not. You know it as well as I do.Why? Because the incentives have not changed.What remains heavily incentivised is excreting more code and slapping more and more random features, not quality control and robustness.I've linked this before, but it remains so very on-topic and on-point, so here it is again:https://freakonometrics.hypotheses.org/89367#InfoSec #AI #Mythos

Oh and a reminder that the whole "wow Mythos is such much special at finding vulns amaze" shtick is largely just Anthropic's hype.https://aisle.com/blog/ai-cybersecurity-after-mythos-the-jagged-frontier> We tested Anthropic Mythos's showcase vulnerabilities on small, cheap, open-weights models. They recovered much of the same analysis. AI cybersecurity capability is very jagged: it doesn't scale smoothly with model size, and the moat is the system into which deep security expertise is built, not the model itself. #AI #Mythos #InfoSec

Welp. I've been using GitLab for over a decade and have been pretty happy with it. Deployed and maintained several instances, some personal, some for small hobby orgs, some for work.But it looks like it is time to ditch GitLab for good:> Software will be built by machines, directed by people. AI is the substrate on which future software gets built. Agents will plan, code, review, deploy, and repair.https://about.gitlab.com/blog/gitlab-act-2/#GitLab #AI #FuckAI #SoftwareDevelopment

Independent audit confirms my analysis of Telegram's protocol from last year:https://istories.media/en/stories/2026/05/18/independent-review-confirms-critical-telegram-vulnerability/The audit was ordered by one of the main characters of IStories' investigation into Telegram's network infrastructure, man called Vedeneev. My analysis was done in connection with that journalistic investigation.Presumably, Vedeneev ordered the audit in order to discredit my analysis and Istories' investigation. Instead, the report confirms my findings. :blobcatcoffee: #Telegram #InfoSec

RE: https://cyberplace.social/@GossiTheDog/116676826944489315I need people to understand that stuff like this will keep happening, for two reasons:1. To be useful these chatbots need to have full access to everything they are supposed to "manage"; otherwise they are pointless.2. Trying to stop prompt injection is basically trying to semantically filter natural language.These tools have no model of the world, no ontology to anchor any "safety instructions" in. There will always be a way to talk one's way around them.#InfoSecRT: https://cyberplace.social/users/GossiTheDog/statuses/116676826944489315
