Reports can be the fun part of a pentest.. if the target uses MyReport. @kaluche_ found a third-party updater running as SYSTEM, an unauthenticated gRPC service, and a nice way to turn software updates into arbitrary code execution. From LPE to RCE🔥 blog.quarkslab.com/myreport-…

To leverage AI agents for vulnerability research, we built a hybrid source-code analysis workflow that combines deterministic analysis with agentic reasoning. Applied to FreeRDP, it helped us uncover vulnerabilities and chain them into client-side RCE. blog.quarkslab.com/from-ai-a…
