(Presented by TLPBLACK: A cybersecurity intelligence platform focused on sharing curated, high-sensitivity threat insights and research with trusted security professionals.) Three Buddy Problem - Episode 95: Vigilant Labs director Mark Dowd joins the show to shed light on the state of offensive research, the economics of the exploit market, and why "Mark Dowd in a box" isn't quite the threat the AI hype machine suggests. He talks through the daily stresses of running an offensive shop, how AI is reshaping vulnerability discovery, exploit development, and the pricing of full exploit chains. Plus, thoughts on Lockdown Mode and Apple's MIE, whether mitigations actually work or just push attackers toward less access, the rise of HarmonyOS and the Balkanization of device security, persistence, baseband attacks, GrapheneOS, and Samsung Knox. We discuss customer vetting and OpSec fears, policymakers who've never written an exploit, and the strange afterlife of The Art of Software Security Assessment, the 20-year-old book now possibly training data for the very tools coming for his job. Cast: Mark Dowd, Juan Andres Guerrero-Saade, Ryan Naraine and Costin Raiu. Timestamps: 0:00 Introductions 4:28 The origin story of Azimuth: why go offensive? 6:26 Stresses of running an offensive research business 12:10 "Mark Dowd in a box" — is AI an existential threat to vuln research? 16:13 Using AI in workflow: frontier models vs. local models 22:05 AI in bug-finding vs. exploit implementation 30:30 Watching AI tear through a firmware backdoor 38:23 Artificial guardrails and the "POC" wall 43:25 Will AI commoditize 0days? The high-end vs. low-end vendor split 57:30 How AI disrupts exploit chain pricing 1:05:18 Does persistence still matter? Should you reboot your phone? 1:09:33 Lockdown Mode, MIE, and Apple's "never been compromised" claim 1:14:25 Do mitigations really work, or are we stuck in an endless loop? 1:23:25 Android vs. iOS vs. Huawei's HarmonyOS Next 1:34:44 Exploit leaks, customer vetting, and OpSec fears 1:41:37 GrapheneOS, Samsung Knox and baseband attacks 1:53:56 Did the exploit market save us from encryption backdoors? 1:55:11 What does the threat-intel community get wrong about vuln research?
In the past week, law enforcement in Florida has issued urgent warnings about a dangerous new prank involving artificial intelligence-generated fake crime videos. According to the Orange County Sheriffs Office, these deepfake videos depict realistic scenes of crimes in progress, tricking officers into real responses. In one case, a person showed a deputy a video appearing to show someone breaking into the officers squad car, prompting an immediate reaction with the deputy placing a hand on his holster. The video was later revealed to be fabricated using artificial intelligence from a simple photo of the vehicle. The Seminole County Sheriffs Office highlighted a similar incident in a popular Tik Tok video, emphasizing that such pranks waste valuable resources and divert attention from actual emergencies.Authorities stress that this trend is not harmless entertainment. The Orange County Sheriffs Office stated clearly that using artificial intelligence to spread misinformation can lead to criminal charges for filing false reports. Officials report at least two confirmed incidents in recent days, and while not yet widespread, they are taking the issue seriously to prevent escalation. Deputies are now advising the public to verify information before contacting law enforcement and to report anyone engaging in these deceptive acts.Meanwhile, researchers at Arizona State University are pushing for global standards to combat the growing challenge of artificial intelligence-generated media. Yang, from the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, leads efforts to embed detectable signals, like digital watermarks, into all artificial intelligence-created content. His team notes that people can distinguish fake media from real only about fifty-one percent of the time, akin to random guessing, as reported in a study from the Communications of the Association for Computing Machinery. Projects like Robust Adversarial Concept Erasure and Erase Flow aim to remove harmful or sensitive elements from artificial intelligence models without retraining them entirely, preserving quality while enhancing safety.Google security team has also warned this week about indirect prompt injection attacks on artificial intelligence platforms. These exploits poison data sources that large language models rely on, subtly altering outputs without direct user input, as detailed by Adam Gavish of the Google Generative Artificial Intelligence Security Team. Open Artificial Intelligence introduced Lockdown Mode and elevated risk warnings in Chat GPT to counter prompt injection and data exfiltration risks, according to e Week reports.These developments underscore the urgent need for better detection and regulation as artificial intelligence blurs the line between reality and fabrication.Thanks for tuning in, listeners, please subscribe, and remember this episode was brought to you by Quiet Please podcast networks.

(Presented by TLPBLACK: High-fidelity threat intelligence and research tools for modern security teams. From curated Passive DNS and real-time C2 monitoring to actionable IOC feeds and daily malware samples, we help defenders detect, hunt, and disrupt threats faster, with seamless integration into SIEM and SOAR workflows.) Matthias Frielingsdorf (co-founder and VP of Research at iVerify) joins the show to discuss the mysterious US government connection to 'Coruna', an iOS exploit kit fitted with 23 exploits across five full chains targeting iPhones iOS 13 through 17.2.1. We talk about a "gut feeling" connecting this to the L3 Trenchant/Peter Williams exploit sale scandal, how a nation-state-grade exploit kit ended up in the hands of a Chinese cybercrime group chasing crypto wallets, and what it means that criminal organizations are now deploying iPhone zero-days at scale. Matthias walks through what iVerify can and can't do on Apple's locked-down platform, why he thinks Apple needs to give defenders more access, the Lockdown Mode debate, the thorny issue of sample sharing in the research community, and practical advice for everyday iPhone users facing a threat landscape that just got a lot more complicated.

Three Buddy Problem - Episode 59: Apple drops another emergency iOS patch and we unpack what that “may have been exploited” language really means: zero-click chains, why notifications help but forensics don't, and the uncomfortable truth that Lockdown Mode is increasingly the default for high-risk users. We connect the dots from ImageIO bugs to geopolitics, discuss who's likely using these exploits, why Apple's guidance stops short, and the practical playbook (ADP on, reboot often, reduce attack surface) that actually works. Plus, we debate Microsoft throttling MAPP access for Chinese vendors, the idea of “letters of marque” for cyber (outsourced offense: smart deterrent or Pandora's box?), and dissect two case studies that blur APT and crimeware: PipeMagic's CLFS zero-day and Russia-linked “Static Tundra” riding seven-year-old Cisco bugs. Cast: Juan Andres Guerrero-Saade (https://twitter.com/juanandres_gs), Ryan Naraine (https://twitter.com/ryanaraine) and Costin Raiu (https://twitter.com/craiu).
