- Although I don’t fully agree with implied attack preconditions and severity, I appreciate @msftsecresponse work to patch and publish CVE-2026-56181 yesterday! msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/v…
- Responses from several VDPs on this vulnerability class make me wonder if public disclosure is generally a better approach. It seems a number one vendor priority right now is finding ways to dismiss issues and avoid paying, or reducing severity rating, putting customers at risk.
- I’m excited to be presenting at Black Hat USA this year! My presentation is titled “Breaking Trust Boundaries: Exploiting Design Assumptions in Network Infrastructure” blackhat.com/us-26/briefing…
