## Anatomy of a Breach: How the Hypothetical “ModelMeld” CVE (CVE-2025-13370) Poisons Your AI Pipeline The world of artificial intelligence is built on collaboration. We stand on the shoulders of giants, leveraging open-source models from hubs like Hugging Face to build the next generation of intelligent applications. But what if the giants stumble? What if the very foundations we build upon are silently corrupted? This is the scenario we explore in this threat report. We’ll Read more…

Passkeys, based on the FIDO2/WebAuthn standards, have been hailed as the silver bullet that will finally kill the password. And for good reason. They are phishing-resistant, user-friendly, and have the potential to significantly improve the security of our online lives. But as with any new technology, it’s only a matter of time before attackers find ways to bypass it. This deep-dive analysis will explore three ways that attackers are bypassing FIDO2/WebAuthn in 2025. We’ll examine Read more…

The mandatory adoption of Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) across numerous sectors has been a significant step forward for cybersecurity. We can now see the components that make up our software, but this newfound visibility has created a new problem: alert fatigue. Your scanner flags a critical CVE in a transitive dependency – a dependency of a dependency – and panic ensues. But is the sky really falling? This is where the Vulnerability Exploitability eXchange Read more…

## The Convergence of Peril: Deconstructing a Factory Shutdown The convergence of Information Technology (IT) and Operational Technology (OT) has ushered in an era of unprecedented efficiency and innovation in the industrial sector. However, this convergence has also created a new and dangerous attack surface, where a vulnerability in the IT world can have devastating consequences in the physical world. The hypothetical “5G-Sideload” CVE is a chilling example of this, demonstrating how a compromise in Read more…

The quantum apocalypse is not a matter of “if,” but “when.” The looming threat of quantum computers capable of breaking today’s encryption standards has forced the cybersecurity community to take action. The “harvest now, decrypt later” strategy, where adversaries are already collecting encrypted data to decrypt it once quantum computers are available, is a very real threat. This is why the migration to post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is one of the most critical challenges facing organizations Read more…

## Introduction: The Double-Edged Sword of eBPF In the world of cloud-native security, eBPF (extended Berkeley Packet Filter) has emerged as a revolutionary technology. It provides unprecedented visibility and control over containerized environments, allowing for high-performance networking, observability, and security. However, with great power comes great responsibility, and the widespread adoption of eBPF has introduced a new and dangerous attack surface directly within the Linux kernel. The hypothetical “eBPF-Escape” CVE (CVE-2025-21800) is a stark reminder Read more…

Ransomware has evolved. For years, the cybersecurity community has focused on defending against the encryption of servers and files. But as organizations have become more resilient, with robust backup and recovery strategies, attackers are shifting their focus to a new, high-value target: the DevOps pipeline. This has given rise to a new and devastating class of ransomware, which we’re calling “CI/CD-Cryptor.” This is not your traditional ransomware; it doesn’t just hold your data hostage, it Read more…

**Introduction: The Newest Frontier of Supply Chain Attacks** In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence, organizations are increasingly leveraging third-party, pre-trained models from public hubs like Hugging Face to build and deploy their own AI-powered applications. This practice, while accelerating innovation, has also given rise to a new and insidious threat vector: the AI supply chain attack. The hypothetical “ModelMeld” CVE (CVE-2025-13370) serves as a chilling case study of how this threat can manifest, Read more…

This article is a step-by-step tutorial for developers and DevSecOps engineers on how to transform a Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) from a static compliance artifact into an active, automated security tool within a CI/CD pipeline. ## Introduction In today’s software development landscape, understanding your dependencies is no longer optional. The rise of sophisticated supply chain attacks has made it critical to know exactly what’s inside your application. This is where the Software Bill of Read more…

## Preamble This article provides a practical, step-by-step guide for developers and system architects to begin migrating from legacy RSA/ECC encryption to post-quantum cryptography, using the NIST-selected CRYSTALS-Kyber algorithm. ## Introduction For decades, RSA and Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) have been the bedrock of digital security, protecting everything from our online banking to our private messages. However, the dawn of quantum computing threatens to shatter this foundation. A sufficiently powerful quantum computer could theoretically break Read more…
