  1. Армагеддон в миниатюре: DC-1 WriteUp

    Сегодня у нас на обзоре занимательная машинка от Vulnhub: DC-1 от автора DCAU. По ощущениям предназначена для уровня Beginner/Intermediate, хотя сам автор сложность не указал. Машина отличается нестандартными флагами - всего их раскидано пять, хотя интересен лишь один рут-флаг, остальные - просто подсказки на пути к нему. Для классификации моих действий будем использовать матрицу MITRE ATT&CK - в конце статьи вас ждет полный KillChain

  2. Breaking into the Vulnerable Controler VM | VulNyx Writeup

    Controler is a medium-level Windows machine. We start by enumerating the Kerberos account for initial access. By exploiting Active Directory replication rights, we extract the Domain Administrator’s password hash, gaining full administrative control.

  3. HTB Season 10 | Kobold WriteUp— MCP-инструменты как новый attack surface

    Разбор Easy-машины из HTB Season 10. Точка входа - RCE через MCP Inspector (dev-тулза для AI-серверов), дальше LFI в контейнере, credential reuse и Docker privesc. Два пути до root, MITRE маппинг, и разбор почему MCP-экосистема - это новый attack surface.

  4. HackQuest ZeroNights 2025: райтапы

    Всем привет! 26 ноября 2025 года мы провели долгожданную конференцию по информационной безопасности ZeroNights. Было классно – пусть и не всегда легко :) За атмосферой предлагаем заглянуть в Галерею , а за ценным опытом спикеров – в Материалы , где вы найдете презентации и видеозаписи докладов. А пока хотим поделиться некоторыми райтапами заданий для HackQuest ZeroNights. Это традиционный квест, проводимый до начала конференции, где за решение тасок и CTF победители получают билеты на ZeroNights. Отличный способ встряхнуться перед мероприятием! Кстати, в этом году конференция пройдет 30 сентября! HackQuest тоже будет. Все связанные с ZeroNights активности анонсируем отдельно. Будем на связи в Telegram и ВК ! А пока – к райтапам. Возможно, эти решения помогут участникам с задачками в этом году :)

  7. I might be a few months late, but I finally found some time to publish my "magnetic_tape" crypto challenge from #NullCon #Berlin #HackIM #CTF 2025:

    github.com/OOTS/magnetic_tape

    I included the source code (was published anyway during the CTF), my own solution, my own #writeup, and some internal files (#Dockerfile, docker-compose, minimal #python #unittests).

    Also: #NullCon #Goa #HackIM #CTF 2026 is happening in a few days: ctf.nullcon.net
    Go check it out!

  12. Истории о «partial PEM»

    Задачка с Offzone 2025 натолкнула на мысль составить свой маленький букет «этюдов» на тему « partial PEM private key » (закрытый ключ с неполной информацией в формате PEM-файла). Будем рассматривать CTF-задачки по восстановлению закрытых ключей популярной криптосистемы RSA.

  13. That whole experience was nuts. It was 95 degrees outside. They were checking bags at the front for unsanctioned water bottles. They sold five dollar bottles of water. lol

    Though, overall, good weekend with family. Im writing about it. May post later today if I feel good about this next draft. #blogger #blogging #writeup

  17. Wohoo...
    My poem in the English language has been published!

    A big thank you to Paper Boat and The Alipore Post for organizing such a delightful event. It was a rare and cherished opportunity to stretch my literary muscles in English, especially through poetry. The experience was not only exhilarating but also incredibly soothing, stirring up a beautiful sense of nostalgia.

  18. I noticed a (minor but abusable) data leak in the RMM/PSA tool Atera a while ago, reported it and it's now fixed. I think it's somewhat interesting so I wrote it up.

    fyr.io/post/atera-leaked-their

    Tldr: if you tested your SMTP settings, it used a public mailbox on mailinator, allowing anyone to watch for (and respond to, if you're so inclined) mail. Phishing opportunity!

  21. Just a public announcement that, I will be beginning with 2 topics; I have said this before I think but not 'officially' (if that even makes sense, lmao) but I will begin with (or have, begun with more specifically)

    1) ( AI : ML)
    2) ( nls933_w.dll reversing )

    so , everyone who knows me(knows as in follow/know who I am online) will see more of these 2 topics, especially AI:ML because I Will use it as help as well. 2 proof of concepts: A AI that will(in some small measure) learn itself to improve, itself. (I am still new to the topic but some proof of concept will be possible) I am going to post it here, in hope - it will be useful!

    The other one, nls933_w.dll (or Nls_933_(..) whatever to call it) is a rootkit, which I have, many times talked about to reverse but not actually done it, why? Well, we `all` need breaks, we really do!
    I - am not an exclusion to that phrase! I needed and still need, some breaks , it's my amazing friends that keep me energized ❤️ thanks to them! I can continue to do this :hi_cirno:

    #thank #thanks #appreciation #project #reverse #reverseengineering #blog #writeup #ai #ml #dl #cs #artificialintelligence #intelligence #malware #virus #bootkit #rootkit #firmware #debug #debugging

    I am reading the book
    - github.com/probml/pml-book
    To get started in it *kind of*!

    so a bit of a message from me:
    Let's do this! ^_^ Stuxnet is done and now it's nls933_w.dll's and ML's turn!
    --------
    over n out!

  22. ✴ Quick update, there will be most certainly a delay in Sherlocks' writeups publishing as because of following the rule "from most to least solves" my stupid ass started solving the active ones for which I am not allowed to publish writeups yet 😅

    So I have 4 of these waiting in queue, but can't really do anything about them now 😬

  23. L’ #informatica sta completamente esplodendo nell’ultima settimana… ciò è molto buffo, ma anche #preoccupante. E siamo appena a sabato mattina… c’è tutto il tempo per far andare storto anche qualcos’altro! Siamo messi veramente di cacca. 😬️

    • Prima è uscito fuori un #bug che colpisce tutte le CPU Apple Silicon, simile a cosa fu Spectre anni fa, quindi ovviamente #hardware, e chissà se sarà o meno patchabile via software in realtà in futuro (ma in tal caso, il vostro bel #computer con la mela girerà 3 volte peggio, soldi buttati). Fanno proprio schifo ‘sti #processori #moderni, tutti indistintamente, finiscono sempre per avere una caterva di #falle strane perché implementano #hack bruttissime a livello di progettazione per girare più veloci… dovremmo tornare onestamente al 6502. Il sito ufficiale è https://gofetch.fail, e #LowLevelLearning ha ovviamente parlato della cosa: https://youtube.com/watch?v=-D1gf3omRnw 🍎️
    • E infine, #notizia di ieri, cosa estremamente grave perché è stata fatta apposta, è stata inserita una #backdoor nella libreria di compressione #XZ. Lo ha scoperto un certo #AndresFreund, che non è un ricercatore di #sicurezza, ma era semplicemente diventato estremamente salty dopo aver visto che i suoi login ad SSH facevano schizzare alle stelle l’uso di risorse del sistema, oltre ad essere stranamente più lenti. Quindi ha scavato un po’, pensando ci fosse qualche #problema benigno, ma in realtà ha scoperto che qualche stronzo ha inserito #malware nel processo di build della libreria, nascondendolo tra le cose relative al testing. Mi sarebbe piaciuto navigare tra #issue e pull request per vedere l’utente che ha mandato ‘sta merda al progetto, ma GitHub come al solito si dimostra la piattaforma di condivisione di codice più stupida al mondo, e ha sospeso tutte le repo per “violazione dei Termini di Servizio”… razza di scimmie imbananate che non siete altro, ma credete davvero che i mantenitori di #Tukaani abbiano fatto entrare codice malevolo nelle loro repo consapevolmente? È ovvio che nessuno se n’è accorto, che bisogno c’è di punire chi non ha colpa allora? (Tra l’altro, il loro sito era ospitato lì, quindi ora manco quello è più online… almeno hanno un mirror Git, ma è solo source lì). Mi piacerebbe proprio tanto fare una chiacchierata con il vero colpevole, e di persona, sia ben chiaro, non dietro una tastiera dove questo si crederebbe ovviamente Dio… “eh ma io so fare gli exploit io so programmare meglio di te io io” sei un coglione, questo sei se fai queste cose, scommetto che non riusciresti nemmeno a parlare faccia a faccia. Persino io con le mie manie di protagonismo non mi sognerei mai di fare qualcosa per garantirmi una backdoor nei server #SSH di tutto il mondo, e che cazzo… 💀️
    Comunque, mailing list della scoperta su https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/03/29/4, e ancora un altro filmino: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqjtNDtbDNI. (#Meme rubato da https://t.me/ignuranza/2002.) Io non ho controllato, ma personalmente direi che non sono vulnerabile sul mio server, perché uso Debian Stable (mi sembra di aver capito che lì non ci sono #rogne), e perché #OpenSSH lo tengo dietro firewall, è accessibile solo dalla mia LAN, col cazzo che arriva un bimbonutella che pensa di entrarci dentro sparando la sua chiave pubblica…
