I'm a sucker for books that support my belief that we're all doing infosec poorly or just for the sake of infosec. This has been an interesting read so far

Uh oh. Check your GCP Cloud Run jobs.

This was 2600 meeting last night. It's getting overwhelming when you look closely

An answer to everyone's question: "What if a Linux syscall was an anthropomorphic action figure?"

Catching @bouncyhat.bsky.social 's talk in track 4. Pretty excited

All I can say is I worked very hard to angle myself into a position to receive one of these today. Thanks @bsidesbuffalo.bsky.social

Starting my talk for @bsidesbuffalo.bsky.social

Just a Friday night with containers, seccomp profiles, and LLMs at @roc2600.bsky.social

Going back to CVE-2019-5736 for a true container 0day for a demo at @bsidesbuffalo.bsky.social next month.

Seccomp will save us right?

It was a great week at @chainguard.bsky.social when I found out I work with the person that wrote Crane and he pointed me at some fun registry security hints.

Here's a preview of an update I'm working on to autodiscover whiteout files in registry images

Here are my slides from @bsidesreykjavik.com.
* Backdooring a container image (Vault)
* Exfiltrate secrets via DNS
* Update to pillage registry tool (originally created by Josh Makinen)

Excited to be at @bsidesreykjavik.com. I have some guilt that I am missing my hometown B-Sides ROC for the first time ever though which is also today but I can't resist Iceland.

As expected, Reykjavik is still pretty cool. My @bsidesreykjavik.com is tomorrow morning bright and early so laying low tonight and appreciating the scenery

Idk how many people I've shown K9s to now but everyone has the same reaction - what is that and give it to me!

I wish I had time to hack in some of the cool Chainguard debugging tools though

My prize possession. A gift from @neutrino.bsky.social who is adding 3d printing to his list of expertises

Quick preview of my seccomp tool for containers that I'll be presenting tomorrow at #shmoocon

How I brought in 2025. Happy new year! See you at Shmoo.

Years ago I built this custom magnetic poetry set to come up with future vulnerability names.

Anyone interested in a pack?

I just learned that part of the XZ incident, the attacker disabled Landlock, thE application sandboxing LSM (that I keep hoping grabs more use cases)

1. I didn't think Landlock was that widely adopted at the app level

2. Surprised that XZ could meaningfully use it for such a low level function

I don't always buy lock picks IRL but when I do, it's from an unmarked warehouse that only accepts cash. 10/10, loved visiting Peterson Manufacturing in Rochester today for a local pickup.
