pcfg-go v0.5.3 has been released.

This release focuses heavily on pcfg_guesser performance and memory efficiency:

• half the memory usage of v0.5.2
• 2x faster than v0.5.2
• 2,578% faster than the original Python3 pcfg_guesser.py

Twice the speed with half the memory usage? Nice.

FortiBleed: The ongoing Fortinet / FortiGate compromise campaign

Fortinet edge devices are being targeted in a large-scale compromise campaign involving exposed management interfaces, FortiCloud SSO abuse, credential theft, brute forcing, config exports, and suspicious admin account creation.

This should be treated as a compromise-assessment event, not just a normal patch cycle.

Admins should patch FortiOS, review all local admin accounts, rotate credentials and shared secrets, check for config exports, enforce MFA, and restrict management access to trusted IPs or VPN-only access.

Spider v1.0.0 released.

Spider is not just another web crawler -- it is a purpose-built wordlist and ngram processor for hash cracking workflows.

URL Mode:
Point it at a URL and Spider crawls the target, extracts words, and generates frequency-sorted wordlists and/or ngrams.

But, Spider does not stop at web crawling...

File Mode:
Feed it local files and it brings the same word-processing engine to your own datasets, scraped content, notes, dumps, configs, or any other plaintext source you want to turn into a targeted wordlist or ngram set.

CsP’s @Waffle_Real just released a new tool called hashpipe, and it solves a problem many of us run into with large potfiles: messy, misidentified hash:password entries.

hashpipe automatically validates founds by recomputing them, identifying the correct algorithm, and outputting verified results in an mdxfind format.

If you maintain large cracking datasets or potfiles, this is a great way to verify and clean them up.

Update: Solflare “xpass exploit" Details Released

In Feb 2025, I reported an exploit vulnerability in the Solflare Chrome wallet which allowed the wallet vault (solflaredata) to be decrypted without the user's password.

Turns out, this was a backdoor, not a bug.

Today, I am releasing the full details of the xpass exploit, aka the "backdoor master key".
