π¦ Looking for Rust malware samples to practice analyzing? Our Rust Malware Sample Gallery just received a major update, with 20 new families added! https://github.com/decoderloop/rust-malware-gallery
The Sample Gallery collects links to articles about malware written in Rust, organizes them by malware family, and includes a download link to a publicly available sample for every malware family. This is a resource for any malware analyst who wants to get hands-on with real Rust malware.
The last time the Sample Gallery was updated was almost 2 years ago, in January 2024. Since then, there's been an explosive growth in new Rust malware, including all of the following families that are now in the Sample Gallery:
SPICA, KrustyLoader, RustDoor, SSLoad, Fickle Stealer, Cicada3301 Ransomware, RustyClaw, Embargo Ransomware, RustyAttr, Akira Ransomware (both the Akira_v2 and Megazord variants), Banshee (Rust variant), RALord Ransomware, RustoBot, Tetra Loader, EDDIESTEALER, Myth Stealer, Rustonotto, RustyPages, ChaosBot
This is nearly one new Rust malware family observed in the wild, every month. Rust as a programming language for malware is here to stay!

I reported a bug in RenderDoc and it got fixed within 45 minutes (!!!) 
TotalRecall - Reloaded.
Invested some time again into Windows Recall. Microsoft redesigned the entire architecture with VBS enclaves after the original TotalRecall. Took a closer look at the new defenses. This time going through MSRC.
The dream of a fast and reliable binary analysis framework is now a reality.

Meanwhile #IDA Pro: "Oops! internal error 1783 occurred."
@jwz What I'm taking away from this right now is that for the extremely narrow case of a problem that humans have documented well and written strong tests for, a robot can be competitive with a human expert. And then also today I got an LLM slop bug report that entirely misrepresented the code in question and had entirely fake conclusions. I'm still solidly team human.
