Hello Austin Gophers! This month's ATX Golang meetup is *tonight* September 9th, at STATION Austin, from 6:30-8:30. Note that we'll be downstairs (first floor) in Wall-E instead of Antones (16th) tonight. Join us for pizza, drinks, Go discussion, and maybe some short talks! https://www.meetup.com/atxgolang/events/312781581

The best part of BSidesLV/BlackHat/DEFCON is getting to meet the people you admire. I got a chance to nerd out with Thai Duong of calif.io today (photo proof!). Thai and team just posted their latest work - 3 remote exploits in FreeBSD - all critical issues if you use HA with your FreeBSD-based firewalls. Noteworthy is that these bugs were found months ago with relatively old model. Vulnerability discovery continues to accelerate!
Hello Las Vegas (and hackers following along at home)! I'm excited to share the first batch of our Out-of-Band / Baseboard Management Controller research at Black Hat USA today and DEFCON 34 this weekend. Read an exclusive by Ars Technica at:
Interested in checking your network? The pre-release of OOBscan is live on GitHub: https://github.com/runZeroInc/oobscan
Thank you to our friends at Dragos.com, NetRise.io, and all of the researchers abroad who helped with review & feedback!
Skipping Black Hat and DEFCON this year? Consider presenting at BSides Hanoi instead. Now in its second year, the conference takes place on August 5th, 2026, and a few more talk slots are still open - but the submission deadline is today. Apply here: https://www.bsideshanoi.net/en/call-for-paper
Thank you to everyone who has already submitted!
My favorite bugs are where the vendor doesn't consider it a vulnerability: How a USB-connected speaker can infect a PC without ever being touched: https://arstechnica.com/security/2026/06/highly-reviewed-speaker-can-be-hacked-over-the-air-to-infect-connected-devices/

Excited to share what we've been cooking for the last few months:
Interactive attack graphs, with hop-by-hop planning, support for over 220 protocols, and no-auth backplane enumeration to identify non-IP systems unauth over the network!
Our free trial includes a fun Demo Organization you can explore and converts into our free Community Edition at the end (with all of the same capabilities, just a lower asset limit)!
Tom Ptacek posted a great writeup titled "Vulnerability Research Is Cooked", covering the state of vulndev and its rapidly accelerating future:
