Kicking off my writing on visualization and software with a post on my most recent Binary Ninja plugin, Ariadne! https://t.co/RRXH8z38Zg

I'm optimistic we can create _some_ type of knowledge-based security-related community activity but traditional online jeopardy-style CTF as a competitive format is on its deathbed and this video hurts. Big love to the community that has meant the world to me the past 11 years!

Junkyard was an absolute pleasure to host again, it was awesome to see it take off... we even had a Roller Coaster Tycoon exploit this year!

In case you missed the show, @caseyjohnellis gave a great writeup of the EOL targets and exploits shared: https://t.co/HhlTrocQHw

THATS A WRAP ON DISTRICTCON YEAR 1! ☃️❤️🪩

We sincerely hope you had a great time - it wouldn’t be possible without our amazing team, our speakers, the villages, our sponsors, and most importantly YOU! We hope this brings you a sense of community. Stay warm, be good to each other, and we’ll see you again for Year 2!

[Mark Griffin @seeinglogic]

Just want to say how pumped I am both to support an awesome local conference and to see our logo in such great company!

[DistrictCon @DistrictCon]

We're so grateful to our sponsors for making Year 1 possible! We'll see you on Jan 24 😎

@pcaversaccio @Lotem_Kahana If you open a workspace with a .vscode/settings.json file overriding these settings, does that override this?

Workspace trust has a lot more surface than it seems, and when I previously reported issues I was told they think "do you trust the authors" is sufficient warning.

[DistrictCon @DistrictCon]

We are extra thankful for our incredible lineup of Year 1 Sponsors for DistrictCon! https://t.co/C9e81D47NE

VSCode has leaned forward on a lot of fantastic usability enhancements...

But their recent "terminal autocomplete suggestion" setting has definitely been a mixed bag for me (distracting and suggests bad completions).

To disable: settings > "terminal suggest" and uncheck

A friend told me I buried the lead, and that they felt this chart tells the tale.

While the sample size is very small, the data does not favor humans given the specific parameters of LiveCTF (average human solve 22.8 min).

[Mark Griffin @seeinglogic]

Finally ran my own experiment with AI on LiveCTF challenges after seeing a bot beat top players.

…and I was surprised by the success of current models with a single prompt.

Team Atlanta's report explains how their 1st place CRS found & patched bugs... and you can just read the code! https://t.co/FGZsDjbSwL

The report covers a ton: orchestration, LLM strategies, patch generation... but really shines in its coverage of practical fuzzing issues.

[Team Atlanta @TeamAtlanta24]

🚀 Today, we're excited to release #TeamAtlanta’s technical report on **ATLANTIS**!

Check out how ATLANTIS won 1st place at #DARPA AI Cyber Challenge (#AIxCC) at #DEFCON 33!

@netspooky ...did you end up finding a good solution for this?

Awesome linear probe based hallucination detection. Code and paper in thread.

[Mark Griffin @seeinglogic]

@spaceraccoonsec Check out their community plugin repo, then write a plugin to do something you think is interesting.

My guess is you'll stick with BN once you've used the API.

[DistrictCon @DistrictCon]

They're called "forever bugs" for a reason 🐛

ICYMI: 5 systems from AIxCC are now Open Source: https://t.co/sr0dx1zZu4

An unprecedented opportunity to peek into the toolkit of top security teams.

Everything from prompt templates, to terraform code, to implementations of very recent research techniques, it's all there 👀
