Active exploitation is being observed via misconfigured security testing applications, enabling attackers to move from exposed training tools into cloud environments.

The issue centers on excessive IAM permissions, default credentials, and poor isolation between test and sensitive systems - not novel malware.

This reinforces the need to treat non-production assets as part of the threat surface.

NiamonX Internet Surface (Beta) is now live — a passive, privacy-respecting OSINT & attack-surface intelligence platform built to map real-world exposure at global scale.

Instead of noisy scans or shallow datasets, the platform merges:
• internet-wide scanning (≈3,000 ports)
• multi-source enrichment (WHOIS/RDAP, public registries, partner crawlers)
• deep tech fingerprinting
• graph-based topology mapping
• AI-driven risk reports

The topology graph reveals relationships between IP ranges, domains, ASNs, software stacks, libraries, misconfigurations, and exposed services — not just “open ports”.
Patterns and systemic weaknesses become visible instantly.

The built-in AI Auditor produces contextual security reports:
• attack-path analysis
• CVE clustering & prioritization
• business impact breakdown
• actionable remediation roadmap
A process that normally takes days can now be done in hours.

The entire system is designed with security & privacy in mind:
• hardened infrastructure
• zero request logging
• no user tracking
• only quota counters for rate enforcement

Available across all plans — including the free tier.

If you’re doing OSINT, threat hunting, red/blue team work, or asset discovery, this is a tool worth exploring.

Brash - architectural Blink flaw that enables Chromium collapse; defensive checklist

The Brash research highlights a core Blink design gap: unthrottled document.title updates can saturate the main thread. Impact spans desktop browsers, embedded Chromium runtimes and headless agents. Vendors are expected to patch; until then, defenders should:
• Inventory Chromium runtimes and headless agents.
• Add process-level CPU/latency alerts for browser processes.
• Monitor automation pipelines for simultaneous headless failures.
• Implement circuit breakers for critical UIs and fallbacks for automation.
• Harden email/portal gating to reduce timed-trigger links reaching many users simultaneously.

The Often-Overlooked Truth in #Cybersecurity: Seeing the Unseen in Vulnerability Management

Most successful breaches don't happen because defenders ignored known vulnerabilities. They happen because attackers exploited assets that organizations never knew existed.

HD‏​​​​​​​​​​‏ ⁢​​​​Moore, founder and CEO of runZero and creator of #Metasploit, reveals the uncomfortable truth: organizations routinely miss half their actual attack surface. Through decades of penetration testing high-security environments, Moore discovered that traditional discovery methods only find properly managed systems while #shadowIT, legacy hardware, and misconfigured devices remain invisible.

Key insights from our conversation:

• When using attacker-grade discovery techniques, asset counts typically DOUBLE what organizations thought they had

• The industry's CVE obsession creates false security while real attacks exploit misconfigurations and zero-days

• Unknown assets—from IoT devices to forgotten servers—bypass even sophisticated security controls

• Traditional agent-based tools can't see what attackers see

#RunZero inverts the traditional model by starting with unauthenticated discovery that mirrors how attackers actually probe networks. This reveals the true attack surface and transforms vulnerability management from reactive patching to strategic risk reduction.

Key insights from our conversation:

• When using attacker-grade discovery techniques, asset counts typically DOUBLE what organizations thought they had

• The industry's CVE obsession creates false security while real attacks exploit misconfigurations and zero-days

• Unknown assets—from IoT devices to forgotten servers—bypass even sophisticated security controls

• Traditional agent-based tools can't see what attackers see

#RunZero inverts the traditional model by starting with unauthenticated discovery that mirrors how attackers actually probe networks. This reveals the true attack surface and transforms vulnerability management from reactive patching to strategic risk reduction.

The Often-Overlooked Truth in #Cybersecurity: Seeing the Unseen in Vulnerability Management

Most successful breaches don't happen because defenders ignored known vulnerabilities. They happen because attackers exploited assets that organizations never knew existed.

HD‏​​​​​​​​​​‏ ⁢​​​​Moore, founder and CEO of runZero and creator of #Metasploit, reveals the uncomfortable truth: organizations routinely miss half their actual attack surface. Through decades of penetration testing high-security environments, Moore discovered that traditional discovery methods only find properly managed systems while #shadowIT, legacy hardware, and misconfigured devices remain invisible.

Key insights from our conversation:

• When using attacker-grade discovery techniques, asset counts typically DOUBLE what organizations thought they had

• The industry's CVE obsession creates false security while real attacks exploit misconfigurations and zero-days

• Unknown assets—from IoT devices to forgotten servers—bypass even sophisticated security controls
