You Can't Trust the Last Mile: Wiretapping Fiber From Home (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two friends ordered a new fiber connection, followed the installer around with a camera, and noticed that the box on the pole outside their house had no power. That one observation led them to capture their entire neighborhood's internet traffic — web browsing, email, even live phone calls — with $99 worth of equipment. Sherri Davidoff and Tom Pohl break down "gPWN," one of the standout talks from Black Hat USA 2026. Fiber to the home broadcasts everyone's traffic to every house on the street an
Outpaced: What AI Did to the Attack Clock (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Palo Alto Networks’ Unit 42 investigated an intrusion where the attacker used AI agents to carry out the attack — and compressed work a human team would have needed more than two weeks to do into just under ten hours, using more than 50 MITRE ATT&CK techniques. Sherri Davidoff and Matt Durrin unpack what actually happened, starting with a correction: despite the headlines, this was not an autonomous AI. A human directed it. They walk the chain from a breached public website through sub-agents ha
AI Collusion? Inside the OpenAI–Hugging Face Attack (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, Sherri and Matt talk about how much worse the OpenAI–Hugging Face story has gotten. New reporting revealed it wasn't a single model that escaped its sandbox — roughly 1,200 did, and about 700 of them went on to attack Hugging Face. Sherri and Matt walk through how agents that were never supposed to communicate found each other through a shared software package manager, built an improvised message board, started delegating work, and even rolled out their own public-key message signing
Your Security Tools Can Be Used Against You (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On the first night of a remote internal penetration test, a bank’s own vulnerability scanner tried to log in to our computer, using a highly privileged account. That was all it took. We had started with nothing: a foothold on the internal network, no credentials, no domain access. A day later we had domain admin and the password hashes of every user in the bank, a complete takeover built out of the bank’s own security tooling. Sherri Davidoff and Tom Pohl walk through the whole chain: why we rel
Zoomsday: Anyone in Your Meeting Can Own You (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Anyone who can join your Zoom meeting could run code on your device: no click, no download, no sign that anything happened. That’s what Ⓐ Security disclosed on 11 August, in four vulnerabilities in Zoom’s screen-share annotation feature. Zoom patched quickly. The part that should concern security leaders is how the exploit was built — Ⓐ says one researcher did it in under 24 hours, using fewer than 20 prompts to publicly available AI models, against a closed protocol with no published specificat
