SonicWall Fixes Max Severity Pre-Auth Flaw in SMA1000 Appliances

SonicWall patched a CVSS 10 pre-auth SSRF flaw in SMA1000 appliances that could let unauthenticated attackers reach internal functions.

Connection Allowlist: a network firewall, built into the browser

Connection Allowlist is a new browser security mechanism that lets a document declare, up front, the exact set of destinations it's permitted to open network connections to. Anything not on the list is blocked by the browser before the connection leaves the machine. It's currently a

Device Bound Session Credentials lands in Chrome on macOS

Device Bound Session Credentials (DBSC) is Chrome's answer to session cookie theft, usually by InfoStealer malware. Instead of a cookie being a bearer token that works anywhere it's pasted, DBSC binds the session to a private key that lives in your device's hardware and

Top 1 Million Analysis – June 2026: The State of Crypto

This is part two of the ten-year anniversary Top 1 Million Analysis. Part one covered the broad state of the web — HTTPS, the security headers, cookies, email and DNS hygiene. This part is the bit I've been most excited to write: a focused look at the

Device Bound Session Credentials: Making Stolen Cookies Useless

A stolen session cookie can be vastly more powerful than a stolen password. The attacker doesn’t need to phish the user, bypass MFA, or defeat their passkey; they simply replay the cookie and step straight into a fully authenticated session. That’s why info-stealers love browser

Why No Passkeys? Naming the Top Sites That Still Don't Support Them

Back in 2017, Troy Hunt and I built a little website called whynohttps.com. The idea was simple: take the most popular sites on the internet, check which ones still weren't redirecting visitors to HTTPS, and put the laggards on a list for everyone to see. No lecture,

The Instructure Canvas Breach (2026): How XSS in a Support Ticket Compromised 275 Million Students

A single support ticket became the front door to 275 million student records. The Canvas breach shows how quickly untrusted user content can become a serious security incident when it is rendered inside privileged internal tooling. This was not an exotic attack chain; it was stored XSS, over-scoped access,

Everything I Learned Shipping Device Bound Session Credentials

Passkeys, Permissions Policy and Bug Hunting in 1Password's WebAuthn Wrapper

Passkeys are the best thing to happen to web authentication in years, but a passkey ceremony is only as secure as the stack enforcing it. The browser, the relying party, the authenticator, and any extension sitting between them all need to honour the same rules.While investigating WebAuthn behaviour, I

Apple’s Verified Photography System

Apple just released a system called “Reference Image.” It can verify the image is exactly as taken by an iPhone—new models only—without tying it to a specific iPhone or photographer. It can also verify that multiple images came from the same iPhone. Other industry solutions require a photographer or institution to vouch for an image using their own credentials. We are concerned this puts some phot

Unidentified Flock Cameras in Florida

St. Lucie County in Florida discovered (alt link) a dozen Flock cameras whose ownership it can’t identify, and that the county government had not permitted. I am reminded of the decade-old story of StingRay cell phone surveillance devices in Washington, DC, whose operators were also unknown. My guess is that in the StingRay case, the devices were operated by foreign actors. This Flock case is more

Using Device Linking to Eavesdrop on WhatsApp and Signal

Modern messaging apps allow users to link their phone accounts to their computer desktop. Eavesdroppers are taking advantage of this capability: Apps such as WhatsApp Web and Signal Desktop allow people to use their accounts on other devices, such as laptops or desktop computers. Germany’s Customs Office has been using these features to connect a police-controlled computer to a suspect’s account.

Candidates’, parties’ and committees’ spending reveals that AI is fast becoming an essential tool of politics. The candidates themselves are quiet about how they are usi

New Attack Against RSA

ArsTechnica is reporting on a “new” attack against RSA, one that bypasses factoring. First, this attack isn’t new. The original research is from 2007. What is new is the implementation. Second, it is a forgery attack. It allows an attacker to forge digital signatures. It does not recover the private key from the public key. Third, the attack only works against pure signatures. That is, signatures
