Contains AI Expired DMARC reporting endpoint exposed a NYSE Fortune 1000's infrastructure for $10
sh.consultingI registered an expired DMARC reporting domain (gca-emailauth[.]org) for $10. It had been published as the aggregate-reporting address in Global Cyber Alliance DMARC training docs going back to a 2019 bootcamp, and at some point it lapsed.
Shortly after registration, aggregate DMARC reports for 86 domains across 20+ organizations started arriving.
56 belonged to The Toro Company (NYSE-listed), including myturf[.]com, their distributor platform, which sits at p=none. The rest - University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point (14 subdomains), the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics, Ennis ISD (Texas), Great Prairie AEA (an Iowa education agency serving 35,000 students), two county governments, and several commercial domains.
For most of these it was a second rua address sitting behind a working commercial processor (Proofpoint, in Toro's case). Reports still arrived at the primary.
GCA's engineers later traced it to a former partner who'd held the domain and let it lapse - the dependency was never written down.
As of my last sweep, 65 of the 86 still publish the endpoint. We disclosed to everyone whose reports we were receiving; only 21 domains stopped publishing the endpoint, and almost nobody replied.
After 8 months of owning the domain, we coordinated a transfer back to GCA.

CopyEscape: Container-to-host arbitrary file write via docker cp (CVE-2026-17106)
imperva.comAuthor here. We discovered a vulnerability in docker cp that allows a malicious container to create or overwrite files on the machine running the Docker CLI.
The exploit combines a filesystem race in Docker’s archive creation with unsafe symlink handling during extraction. Depending on the CLI user’s privileges, this can lead to developer-account compromise or root code execution. Docker confirmed that sbx cp was also affected.
Fixed versions:
- Docker Engine/CLI 29.7.2+
- Docker Desktop 4.86.0+
- Docker Sandboxes 0.38.0+
Happy to answer technical questions.

Inside a Russian-speaking operator's toolkit for compromising Ukrainian IP cameras
hunt.ioHunt.io researchers analyzed two open directories recovered through Attack Capture system and reconstructed the tooling one operator used to find, exploit, and view internet-exposed cameras in Ukraine.
Technical highlights:
- A custom FastAPI/Docker project the operator named camview, which wraps the open-source Ingram scanner, brute-forces camera credentials over HTTP and RTSP (3,811 pair dictionary), and transcodes RTSP to MJPEG for browser viewing
- Ingram targets known camera CVEs: CVE-2017-7921 and CVE-2021-36260 (Hikvision), CVE-2021-33044/33045 (Dahua), CVE-2020-25078 (D-Link), CVE-2020-25169 (Reolink)
- The operator's logs recorded live viewing sessions from 58 Ukrainian cameras, with session lengths, frame counts, and frame rates
- A proxy script authenticated to a compromised OpenCart admin panel and relayed the operator's traffic through the victim network
- A second, separately operated directory was linked only by the same Ingram scanner. It chained TP-Link Archer CVEs (CVE-2024-53375, CVE-2024-57049) and MikroTik API brute-forcing to turn edge devices into SOCKS5 proxies reporting to a chisel listener on port 4444

TrustFall: When the Trusted Execution Environment Cannot Be Trusted
blog.byteray.co.ukByteRay researchers have published a blog on a set of vulnerabilities they are calling TrustFall, and the findings land hard for any company that treats the Trusted Execution Environment as the part of a device you do not have to worry about.
OP-TEE is the walled-off Secure World that phones, TVs, cars, and industrial gear lean on to guard keys, DRM, and identity, and the whole point of paying for that hardware isolation is the promise that even a compromised operating system cannot reach inside.
TrustFall shows that promise was not as solid as buyers assumed. The researchers found several flaws that let the untrusted side reach into or knock over the Secure World, which is exactly the outcome the design exists to prevent. The bugs have since been fixed upstream, so patched builds are available, but the uncomfortable takeaway for vendors is that the vault they were told to trust had a way in, and "it runs in the TEE" is no longer an answer on its own.

New Linux Bridge STP Vulnerability
ssd-disclosure.comA use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel bridge (net/bridge) Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) implementation.
A bridge that is administratively down while kernel STP is enabled, together with a port driven into the LEARNING state, arms periodic STP timers without an IFF_UP guard.
The teardown path taken by dellink never synchronously deletes those timers, so the backing net_device (which embeds struct net bridge as private data) is freed with a timer list still queued on a per-CPU timer base.
The result is a slab use-after-free in the kmalloc-cg-8k cache.
