Today in InfoSec Job Security News:

I was looking into an obvious ../.. vulnerability introduced into a major web framework today, and it was committed by username Claude on GitHub. Vibe coded, basically.

So I started looking through Claude commits on GitHub, there’s over 2m of them and it’s about 5% of all open source code this month.

As I looked through the code I saw the same class of vulns being introduced over, and over, again - several a minute.

This is not new behaviour for him. I remember when he was first trying to launder his image by setting up the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. They were 'giving' large quantities of drugs to poor countries. Just one condition: if you want to receive them, you have to sign a treaty respecting US IP laws. This was justified as 'the pharma companies won't let us give you the drugs if you can set up competing manufacturing chains' but the real reason was that it allowed Microsoft to enforce Windows and Office copyrights and strangled nascent software industries in these countries. And it was a great sales tactic, because if you refuse then you have to explain to your population why you're allowing tens of thousands of them to die.

If he'd actually cared, he'd have used the fact that they didn't have these IP treaties signed to set up factories that manufactured generic versions of these drugs in some of the affected countries. This could have helped to bootstrap pharmaceutical in some of them. But the main goal was to prevent competition from industrialising countries, saving lives was just leverage.

Fluxer keeps coming up as a Discord alternative. It looks good, but it has one major problem: It's AGPL and it requires a CLA.

That is an enshittification time bomb. I personally will not contribute to projects using that combination, it's gone wrong way too many times.

Können wir bitte anfangen die Headline "Social-Media Verbot für Jugendliche" durch "Identifikationszwang bei sämtlichen online Diensten" zu ersetzen, danke.

Vielleicht versteht's dann der Ein oder Andere was das bedeutet.

"Decades of collective work proving that “open source” is not less but at least as secure as commercial offerings now slowly going down the drain. Because a bunch of men – and it is always all men – just don’t want to be responsible for their actions. Which is fine if you are 5. But after 18 it gets old really fucking fast."

There is something the US and Russia misunderstand about Europe. They think we are soft, and diplomatic. That we are scared to go to war.

They do not understand how much war there is in our history. How far back it goes. We have been at each other's throats for a millennium. It is somewhere deep in us, in our bones. We are reluctant because we know what we're capable of.

We are reluctant because of something we don't want re-awakened. We are not afraid of Russia, we are afraid of ourselves.

Die Macht der Aufmerksamkeit

„​#Verschwörungsmythen funktionieren ja nicht deshalb so gut, weil die Menschen sie aufgrund fehlender #Fakten glauben.

Sie funktionieren, weil ihre Anhänger:innen sie #glauben wollen.

Weil sie ein emotionales Bedürfnis danach haben zu glauben, dass – wenn sie selbst schon keine Kontrolle über ihr Leben haben – irgendjemand diese Kontrolle ja haben muss.“

at any rate, if you are going to be angry about being forced to be an unwilling participant in this experiment, you should direct your anger at the people running the unethical experiment.

might i suggest a modest wealth tax?

OpenCLAW bots start invading the Fediverse. I've just blocked one, and I have a feeling that this won't be the last one.

Setting up such a thing amounts to vandalism.

@ariadne @AmyZenunim There may come a day when there are legitimate questions about whether a computing system is a person, but LLMs are statistical Markov chains for predicting the next word. They aren't people, and we don't need to have a firm definition of what a person is because they're so far from being "people" the question isn't any more relevant than asking if your calculator is a person. It's just math.

To be clear, I also don't like people abusing non-entities, especially ones that appear like entities, because it trains people that abuse is a valid behavior. "It's okay if I use this slur because--" Or maybe don't teach yourself to rationalization the use of slurs, kthx.

The FDA decided not to even review Moderna's mRNA flu vaccines for approval, even though the studies the FDA would be reviewing were conducted the way the FDA told Moderna to do them.

Now #Moderna expects that none of its other #mRNA #vaccines will be reviewed, and has halted studies on vaccines for EBV, HSV, and shingles.

A lot of people with herpes would be angry if they found out.

A lot of people who have family members with #MS -- now thought to be caused in part by EBV -- will be livid.

Mit Vollgas ins Datengraval: #Nürburgring parkt Kundendaten im offenen #s3-Carport

Der Nürburgring hat das Kunststück vollbracht, nicht nur auf dem Asphalt sondern auch im Cyberspace eine ordentliche Ölspur zu ziehen. Rund 24.000 Dokumente – satte 17 GB #Kundendaten – lagen wie ein herrenlos abgestellter GT3-Wagen im offenen s3-Bucket, frei einsehbar für jeden, der zufällig am digitalen Fahrerlager vorbeispazierte.

Im Datenpaket inklusive: Kopien von Schwerbehindertenausweisen, fein säuberlich beschriftete Rechnungen samt Namen und Adressen sowie Lebensläufe, bei denen man sich fragt, ob sie vor dem Datenleck schon eine Kurve zu viel genommen hatten.

Nach #Responsible #Disclosure wurde das Leck immerhin innerhalb von 24 Stunden bereinigt. Ein Boxenstopp, der nicht elegant war, aber zumindest ohne Totalschaden endete.

had a good conversation earlier that went something like this:

them: “is AI making pentesting easier?”

me: “yes.”

them: “why, because you can use it to look for vulnerabilities in code quicker?”

me: “no, because it generates vulnerabilities in code quicker”

Not to brag, but if anthropic had paid me $20,000 and given me a month I'd also have been able to write them a very shitty C compiler.
