Exploiting Asus driver to escalate privileges. With few clever tactics Marcin Noga managed to bypass several constraints implemented by the driver devs. With hardlinks and ObfDereferenceObject() one can decrement PreviousMode of a process to enter god mode (this was patched in 24H2). Nicely done, @_Icewall! Post: blog.talosintelligence.com/d… #redteam #maldev #malwredevelopment

CVE-2025-1533 - Asus Armoury Crate AsIO3.sys stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability talosintelligence.com/vulner… Remember that Windows paths can be longer than MAX_PATH(260)!!! I wrote a few words about this 15 years (sick!) ago : github.com/icewall/Publicati…

The biggest takeaway from this talk is that macOS font renderer ALMOST never invokes the interpreter. If you were fuzzing TTF bytecode without paying attention, it was probably not hitting the interpreter at all. I'll post slides shortly with other interesting details. #OBTS

📜 Starting Day 2 Talks of #OBTS with a dive into the unexpected: “Triangulating TrueType Fonts On macOS: Reconstructing CVE-2023-41990” by Aleksandar Nikolic (@FuzzyAleks). Who knew a simple PDF and the Fonts could be transformed into a digital weapon? In this talk, Aleksandar unravels the mystery behind a hidden vulnerability in Apple’s font rendering code, originally linked to Operation Triangulation. Like navigating ancient paths of Kinihapai, we’ll explore some of the oldest code running on the latest macOS and iOS, uncovering insights that could reshape how we detect and defend against such exploits. OBTS kicks off strong—ready to see how deep this rabbit hole goes? 🌊📄 #AppleSecurity #macOS #ReverseEngineering

Teammates have published an overview of five years worth of router security research which has resulted in hundreds of vulnerabilities discovered in routers from more than a dozen different companies.
Since the #VPNFilter malware several years ago, our vulnerability research team has looked into several popular wireless routers used in homes and small businesses. Now, we have a rundown of all the vulnerabilities we discovered as part of this research cs.co/6018PwImO

On Friday I'll be doing my "PCI Express To Hell" talk: youtube.com/watch?v=fE0fnGbI… If you're building your own PCs you should check it out! Last year I reworked my whole computer setup and learned a lot about PCIE. Don't make the same mistakes I did ;) Plz RT for range :)

Remember these? Original Lytro! Lightfield cameras of the future! I grabbed a few off eBay some time ago and took a peek at the firmware. Found secret unlock that enables full remote control of all camera features. Full writeup here: github.com/ea/lytro_unlock
