Unfortunately I won't be attending @Steel_Con this year but a quick note. If you are using the conference Wifi and ssh, @jpts_ found last year that using "KexAlgorithms curve25519-sha256@libssh.org" solved connectivity issues. Enjoy the conference!💪💻

Malicious VSCode extensions can steal secrets from other extensions. Discovered and disclosed by our talented security researchers @FabianKimmel and @wakewarduk, write-ups and source code now public: 🔍 Introduction to attack vectors and initial findings control-plane.io/posts/abusing-… 🔍 Deep dive into the technical details and potential mitigations control-plane.io/posts/abusing-… 📦 Proof of concept extension that steals all the secrets github.com/controlplaneio… Join us in raising awareness about this critical issue, and let's work together to enhance the security of our development tools. #ControlPlane #CyberSecurity #VSCode #Research #Security #DevSecOps #OpenSource

Can I ask my U.K security followers to please please please retweet this, we're putting on our first BSides in Exeter in July this year and it's going to be great. Tickets and details are available here ti.to/bsides-exeter/…

@snyksec has discovered a new container breakout, known as CVE-2024-21626 Check out WithSecure Labs for more about the proof of concept and its demos for the docker / kubernetes / CI/CD environments: labs.withsecure.com/publications/r…

🌐 2024 Cloud & Kubernetes Security Forecast 🌐 control-plane.io/posts/cloud-an… The year is unfolding with pivotal shifts in cloud and Kubernetes security, with a rollercoaster of developments, notably: 💣 AI supply-chain time bombs with VEX/SBOM trust issues 🛡️ FINOS CCC for hybrid cloud regulations with a slice of WASM 🚨 CISOs navigating OSS licensing, regulation, and quantum crypto IAM, “Open Source” AI, Rust, Confidential Computing, and OSS all make an appearance — I hope it only partially transpires 🙏 ⚔️ Global conflict and economic tightening impacting security strategies 💣 AI supply chain vulnerabilities bringing new threats 🧬 Quantum computing up-ending traditional cryptography 👾 Evolving AI threats bringing unprecedented challenges 🔑 Novel identity and access mechanisms revolutionizing security 🛡️ Battling multicloud misconfiguration exposures 📊 "Open Source" AI and layers of reproducibility challenge 🌐 Rust securing perpetuity in the Linux kernel 🔗 WebAssembly revolutionizing language interoperability 🔒 Confidential Computing enhancing security on untrusted hardware 🚨 CISOs facing increased penalties; cybersecurity insurance evolving But it's not all bad news in the ever-shifting global dynamics of cloud security 🚀☁💻

Massive thank you to everyone who attended the #KubeConNA CTF. I hope you enjoyed it and I really appreciate all the lovely feedback ♥️ 👊
