New OpenSecurityTraining2 class: "TPM 2.0 Programming using Python and the tpm2-pytss libraries" (~13 hours)

This class by Bill Roberts (a core maintainer in the tpm2-software organization), provides a comprehensive introduction to Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 programming using the Python-based tpm2-pytss library. Designed for developers, security engineers, and researchers, the course covers both foundational TPM 2.0 concepts and practical hands-on development techniques for interacting with TPM hardware and simulators.

Students will learn the architecture and security goals of TPM 2.0, the structure of TPM objects, and how to work with cryptographic keys, non-volatile storage, platform configuration registers (PCRs), and authorization policies. Through the use of the tpm2-pytss library, participants will develop Python applications that interface with the TPM to perform tasks such as key provisioning, sealing and unsealing secrets, attestation, and policy-based access control.

Like all current #OST2 classes, the core content is made fully public, and you only need to register if you want to post to the discussion board or track your class progress. Based on beta testing this class takes a median of 13 hours to complete.

2025 Supabase Security Best Practices Guide - Common Misconfigs from Recent Pentests.

Hey everyone,

We just published our 2025 Supabase Security Best Practices Guide, based on findings and common misconfigurations we’ve seen during recent pentest engagements.

It’s a rolling article that we plan to keep updating over time as new issues come up — we still have a few more findings to post about, but wanted to share what we’ve got so far.

If you’re running Supabase in production (or planning to), it might help you double-check RLS, Edge Functions, Vault, and other areas where we often see mistakes.

Happy to hear feedback, and we’d love to know if you’ve run into similar issues.

🛡️ I’ve started a Pentesting Weekly Digest — would love your feedback & thoughts!

Hey folks,

I’ve recently launched a Pentesting Weekly Digest where I cover the most important updates in pentesting, red teaming, CVEs, and cybersecurity news — all in one short weekly post.

Each issue includes:

  • 📰 Top security news & breaches
  • ⚒️ Tools & frameworks relevant for pentesters
  • 🔎 A highlighted CVE/vulnerability of the week
  • 🧑‍💻 My own short commentary on why it matters

My goal is to make it a useful resource both for beginners learning offensive security and for professionals who want a quick overview of the week’s highlights.

👉 Here’s the latest issue: https://open.substack.com/pub/yaroslavbui/p/pentesting-weekly-digest-september?r=r84oh&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

I’d love if you could:

  1. Subscribe if you find it valuable
  2. Share your feedback — what would you like me to add, remove, or improve?
  3. Discuss — which format works best for this kind of digest (short summaries, deep dives, tool demos, etc.)?

Your input will help me shape this into something that’s actually useful for the community. Thanks in advance! 🙏

Practice spotting typo squatted domains (Browser game: Typosquat Detective)

With the recent npm/Node.js supply chain incident (phished maintainer, 18 packages briefly shipping crypto-stealing code), I wanted to share a small project:
Typo squat Detective, a 2-3 minute browser game to practice spotting look-alike domains.

It covers:
• Numbers ↔ letters (1 ↔ l, 0 ↔ o)
• Unicode homoglyphs (Cyrillic/Greek lookalikes)
• Punycode (xn--) tricks

Play it here: https://typo.himanshuanand.com/

Curious to hear which tricks fooled you and if you would like more levels/brands.

🚨 Google Drive’s Hidden Insider Threat: How I Accessed Another User’s Files Without Re‑Authentication

Hey folks,

I wrote a technical breakdown of a vulnerability I discovered in Google Drive Desktop for Windows. It allows one user to copy the DriveFS cache from another user profile and gain full access to their Google Drive without any re-authentication.

The issue: Google Drive does not reverify the identity tied to the local DriveFS cache.

Anyone with local access can copy that cache and impersonate another Drive user. Violates basic Zero Trust and user isolation principles.

Google reviewed and responded that it is “not a security vulnerability.”

I also discuss why this violates NIST, ISO 27001, SOC 2, and even GDPR/HIPAA compliance expectations.

Using AI Agents for Code Auditing: Full Walkthrough on Finding Security Bugs in a Rust REST Server with Hound

Hey r/netsec,

As a security researcher, I've been exploring ways to leverage AI for more effective code audits. In my latest Medium article, I dive into a complete end-to-end walkthrough using Hound, an open-source AI agent designed for code security analysis. Originally built for smart contracts, it generalizes well to other languages.

What's in the tutorial:

  • Introduction to Hound and its knowledge graph approach
  • Setup: Selecting and preparing a Rust codebase
  • Building aspect graphs (e.g., system architecture, data flows)
  • Running the audit: Generating hypotheses on vulnerabilities
  • QA: Eliminating false positives
  • Reviewing findings: A real issue uncovered
  • Exporting reports and key takeaways

At the end of the article, we create a quick proof-of-concept for one of the tool's findings.

The full post Is here:

https://medium.com/@muellerberndt/hunting-for-security-bugs-in-code-with-ai-agents-a-full-walkthrough-a0dc24e1adf0

Use it responsibly for ethical auditing only.

New OpenSecurityTraining2 class: "Bluetooth 2222: Bluetooth reconnaissance with Blue2thprinting" (~8 hours)

This class by Xeno Kovah (founder of OST2) teaches about the 30+ types of Bluetooth data that the Blue2thprinting software can collect and surface for when you're trying to determine what a device is, and whether it has any known vulnerabilities. New in v2.0+ is the BTIDALPOOL crowd-sourcing server for researchers to push & pull data about devices they've discovered.

Like all current #OST2 classes, the core content is made fully public, and you only need to register if you want to post to the discussion board or track your class progress. Based on beta testing this class takes an median of 8 hours to complete (and an average of 9 hours, with a min of 4h30m and max of 15h22m.)

The new Bluetooth learning path showing this class's relationship to others under development is available here: https://ost2.fyi/Bluetooth.html

My Favorite Exclusive-Or

I took a bunch of bits and spread them out into ARM's neon registers and then did cool math on them to replicate the effects of an exclusive-or. It turned out to be way faster than I anticipated.

I then wrote unit tests that take advantage of generative testing with Quickcheck to make sure it actually works. I had never seen Quickcheck used to unit test inline assembly but it seems like no function using in-line assembly should ever not be covered by generative testing.

I love how readable this is. Honestly, the Rust tooling is so good that I never have to write assembly outside of Rust again.

I can't really think of a reason not to, don't say file sizes 😩.

BYOVD: Leveraging Raw Disk Reads to Bypass EDR

Interesting write up on using vulnerable drivers to read the raw disk of a Windows system and extract files without ever touching those files directly. This subsequently allows the reading of sensitive files, such as the SAM.hive, SYSTEM.hive, and NTDS.dit, while also completely avoiding detection from EDR.

RapperBot: infection → DDoS in seconds (deep dive write-up)

Just published a breakdown of RapperBot. Quick hits:

Uses DNS TXT records to hide rotating C2s.

Multi-arch payloads (MIPS, ARM, x86), stripped/encrypted, self-deleting.

Custom base56 + RC4-ish routine just to extract C2 IPs (decryptor included).

Infra shifts fast: scanners moving countries, repos/FTP/NFS hosting binaries.

Timeline lines up neatly with DOJ’s Operation PowerOFF takedown.

Full post: https://www.bitsight.com/blog/rapperbot-infection-ddos-split-second

Curious if anyone’s still seeing RapperBot traffic after the takedown, or if it’s really gone quiet.
