I began looking into browser security issues again in 2026 and while reviewing extension permission APIs, I noticed that the default declarativeNetRequest API (which only requires permission to block content on all pages) can be leveraged into a side-channel attack. This permission ends up allowing an extension to infer the full URL of open tabs without requesting the chrome.tabs permission, and it can also leak the full URL of cross-origin redirects. Unfortunately, fixing this issue has been deemed unrealistic by Chrome, and the risk has been accepted, so it is worth keeping this in mind when granting content-blocking permissions to browser extensions. The complete public report can be found at issues.chromium.org/issues/4….

Securing @gumroad with Hacktron AI Three months ago, Hacktron was still early. @HacktronAI and @rootxharsh were finding 0-days targeting specific vulnerabilities on OSS software. Then we ran a full pentest-style scan on a big open-source project. The results were insane. 🧵

We tested a pre-release version of o3 and found that it frequently fabricates actions it never took, and then elaborately justifies these actions when confronted. We were surprised, so we dug deeper 🔎🧵(1/) x.com/OpenAI/status/19125493…

Seeing paulosyibelo.com/2024/12/dou… in PortSwigger's top 10 made me remember a trick I found a few years ago, where if a button has an ID attribute, you can trick users into submitting it by holding enter (or space). Guess lots of places are affected 😅 PoC: lbherrera.me
