"You don't need pentesters anymore." - Every hype cycle, ever.
While the AI debate continues in Vegas, we'll be busy finding the bugs it missed and proving which "findings" were never vulnerabilities in the first place.
Happy Black Hat & DEF CON!

🇫🇷 Un petit bug with a big impact.
A vulnerability reported by Doyensec's French team members in Electron's `shell.openPath()` has now been patched. Apps relying on string-only path validation could be tricked into opening a different file via an embedded null byte.
Merci to the Electron maintainers for the quick fix.

Hey pentesters📢, make your lives easier by using maSSO - a weaponized SSO Identity Provider for security testing of OIDC & SAML 2.0 Service Providers.
The IdP your target trusts - that you fully control. Intercept, edit, re-sign. 👇 http://github.com/doyensec/maSSO

After publishing our whitepaper (https://blog.doyensec.com/2026/05/27/aikido-xbow.html) comparing Aikido and XBOW, we evaluated our own AI-assisted testing workflow against one of the same targets to see whether it would identify the same High and Critical findings.
Built by and for our security engineers, our tooling accelerates codebase understanding, builds a knowledge base of application behavior and architecture, and uses that context to uncover vulnerabilities.
Beyond rediscovering the previously reported and fixed issues, the workflow identified two additional vulnerabilities:
* A cross-tenant invitation token validation flaw ([PR#1561](https://github.com/getfider/fider/pull/1561))
* A read-only SSRF in the OAuth implementation ([PR#1567](https://github.com/getfider/fider/pull/1567))Both issues were responsibly disclosed and promptly remediated.
Our conclusion: AI-powered security tooling can significantly enhance testing, but the best results still come from combining it with experienced human expertise.

While we're happy for our prize and that our exploit targeting OpenAI's Codex in the Coding Agent category was successful at #PWN2OWN, this was a collision💥 as the bug was previously known to the vendor. Back to the research! #P2OBerlin

🎯 Make XSS hunting easier and faster
In the latest video in our Eval Villain series, @bemodtwz demonstrates how the “needles” feature can dramatically speed up your search for DOM-based XSS and other injection points.
If you’re doing client-side security testing, this is a great example of how the right tooling can remove friction and help you focus on what matters: finding real vulnerabilities.

🥂🤖 A toast to 9 years of #Doyensec!
Nine years of pushing application security forward, breaking things so others don’t, & helping teams build with security from day one. 🍸
Cheers to the bugs we’ve found, the apps we’ve strengthened, & the many secure years still to come. 🎉
