SCOOP: The iPhone mass hacking toolkit used by Russian spies was developed at U.S. military contractor L3Harris, former employees said.

The Coruna toolkit was used against Ukrainians during the war and by Chinese cybercriminals, according to Google.

But the toolkit was initially developed for governments in the Five Eyes spy alliance, and it was used in Operation Triangulation, according to one source.

Released a tool to erase X-Gold 608 (06.15.00 iPad) baseband.

This is useful if you want to downgrade your iPhone 3G to iOS 2.0 with the matching baseband.

The exploit/payload was taken from redsn0w and some code from xerub. There isn't really anything novel here, but until now there wasn't a straightforward way to erase the baseband or to downgrade to iOS 2.0 baseband on the iPhone 3G.

Lenovo released all patches for the Vantage vulnerabilities I reported earlier this year. The blog has been updated with write‑ups for CVE-2025-13154, CVE-2026-1715, CVE-2026-1716, and CVE-2026-1717.

🚨 New advisory was just published!

A critical vulnerability in UNISOC modem firmware allows one User Equipment (UE) to remotely attack another over the cellular network. By sending specially crafted malformed SDP within SIP signaling messages, an attacker can trigger memory corruption in the target modem, potentially leading to remote execution of arbitrary native code on the victim device: https://ssd-disclosure.com/unisoc-t612-rce/

I see people in here being smug about an OPSEC failure, and other people pointing out that "we only respond to local law enforcement requests" is a much bigger set than you might think, but it's all focused on what the individual can do to protect their privacy and anonymity against nosy state actors.

Most of the solutions proposed are either very insecure (mailing cash) or sufficiently technically complex to be out of the skill set of the average computer user.

I just got back home from @REverseConf . I had an amazing time, and I want to thank the organisers and all the people I met! The talks went great, and I was honoured to be part of the process of choosing and refining them. If you are thinking about where to submit next year, I highly recommend this event, in beautiful Orlando!
