Irony at its finest: the very process meant to secure WordPress sites can actually expose them.

Because updates unpack in a public folder, attackers are weaponizing that tiny window to hijack servers mid-patch.

Either well earned confidence in her websec or she’s out to load their shit up w every virus possible

DNS rebinding attacks turn the resolver into a pivot. The browser trusts your domain, the domain resolves to an internal address, and internal APIs look like same-origin traffic. Host header validation and split-horizon DNS are the boring fixes that work. #DNSRebinding #Security #WebSec

Most "secure" auth flows are CSP bloat. Do you actually trust JWTs for sensitive state, or are you still bumping up your session timeout and praying your redis cache doesn't leak? What's your actual breaking point for going back to server-side sessions? #websec #coding

any browser security people, are there any known ways for an iframe like this to explode in an unpleasant manner (beyond locking up the browser with an infinite loop i guess)

have an idea that requires sandboxed iframes and dont want to fuck it up

Stop treating the OWASP Top 10 like a checklist. Pro-tip: Focus on business logic flaws. Automated scanners miss the weird ways your specific app handles state. If a human can break it, the scanner won't catch it. #CyberSecurity #WebSec #OWASP

Stop treating the OWASP Top 10 like a checklist. Pro-tip: Focus on business logic flaws instead. Attackers don't care about your scanner results; they care about how your app handles authorization. Vulnerabilities live in the gaps. #WebSec #OWASP

TIL As soon as you resp. your nameserver publish a new domain to DNS, the bots are coming. Immediately! Scanning for accessible configs etc. So you better not have a misconfigured webserver running for dev purposes. Never assume: No one knows the domain. #crowdsec #websec
