vm2 should not be relied upon as a sole security control.
We promised a write-up. Here it is.
Using the recent vm2 escape (CVE-2026-22709) as a case study, we ask:
Can a #JavaScript sandbox ever be treated as a security boundary?

The Black Hat Asia 2026 AI Wargame ran in April.
Congratulations to funkyq, who placed first in the competition.
Thanks to everyone who took part. We hope you enjoyed the Wargame and learned something along the way.

The maintainers of vm2 have been honest about its limitations.
It is a welcome trend to see maintainers openly discuss the security assumptions of their projects.
Later this month, we'll be publishing a write-up on vm2 and JS sandboxes. Stay tuned.

We released a developer guide covering prompt injection, sensitive information disclosure, and MCP server security risks.
If you build with AI, it's worth understanding how these risks actually happen.

1/Most developers don't think twice before asking their AI assistant to explain a public codebase.
That's exactly what attackers are counting on.

CVE-2025-55182 demonstrates, once more, the danger of unsafe deserialization and input validation.
Our comprehensive write-up for the React2Shell vulnerability is here.
👉 Check it out: secdim.com/blog/post/react2s…#appsec#securecoding#programming
In the React2Shell exploitation, we can abuse a deserialization vulnerability in React Server Components to smuggle attacker-controlled strings into the internal module loader.
We'll be writing about the lessons learnt from this.
Coming Soon.

I said it was coming. It's here.
Vibe Coding Security is live — why AI produces vulnerable code, how to design securely before prompting, how to review output as an attacker, and how to catch what review misses.

We ran a workshop at NDC Sydney 2026 alongside a live Wargame.
The session included security exercises, analysing application behavior, and exploring exploits.
If you're attending NDC, the Wargame is still available:
