Thoughts on ByBit First, the good stuff: impressive response to the hack. I've rarely seen that level of transparency + professionalism in a crisis. Usually you see slow, wishy-washy, lawyer-speak or quick meme-style responses that don't fit the seriousness of the situation. 1/n
Learned a lot about security from @randomoracle @michaelbreu back in the day. Lesson one is anything that can be penetrated will be. Software and hardware, and the practices around them, must be resilient & redundant. Every step must have integrity. No shortcuts.
Safe multisig smart contracts worked fine, and Bybit still got hacked. This is equivalent to a lending market's messing up the configs. Security is just a beast in itself and it can't be reduced to one single factor like smart contract audits. You have to do them all right.
Until October 30, Okta generated "the cache key" by using bcrypt to "hash a combined string of userId + username + password", which allowed full password auth bypass for usernames of 52+ bytes and apparently required only partial knowledge of the password for other long usernames
Okta allowing login bypass for any usernames with 52+ characters is insane Official Security Advisory: trust.okta.com/security-advis…

1988: The Morris worm spread like wildfire and was the first worm to get wide media attention. After its author, Robert Tappan Morris, released his "experiment", it quickly spread and made many of the systems on the Internet unusable - an epoch for security...both good and bad.

The pk.fail service has an open API interface for mass scanning. By today, 7550 unique FW images had been checked, and 534 (7%) contained non-production keys or were exposed to the #PKfail. The detected keys are associated with AMI (majority), Insyde and Phoenix.

"Creating our own bytecode VM for detection rules will be much safer than constantly writing new code for kernel mode 💡" — said someone somewhere at #Clownstrike
It would be a different story if Google allowed GrapheneOS to pass the device and strong integrity levels via the hardware attestation API but added an extra field in the response saying that the OS is GrapheneOS. Apps could go out of the way to ban it if they wanted.
Sign of incompetent vendor: Puts more effort into cease & desist orders against obviously non-infringing parody/satire than improving their weak-sauce technology that caused a global IT outage #Clownstrike #DumpsterFire

GrapheneOS threatening to sue Google is strange; it is Authy that decided to restrict their app to "genuine" Android devices based on remote attestation Also for perspective: Authy's days are numbered anyway, given that future is passwordless arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/0…
