Everyone wants to fuzz complex optimizations of WebAssembly compilers, but most approaches are simply considering grammars and types. Why can't we fuzz optimizations directly? We will share how we can do if we have systematically written optimization rules in S&P 2025 :)

Confirmed!! Seunghyun Lee (@0x10n) of KAIST Hacking Lab used a UAF to RCE in the renderer on both #Micosoft Edge and #Google Chrome. He earns $85,000 and 9 Master of Pwn points. That also puts us over $1,000,000 for the event! #Pwn2Own
Boom! Seunghyun Lee (@0x10n) of KAIST Hacking Lab was able to successfully demonstrate his exploit of #Google Chrome. He's off to the disclosure call to provide us all the details before we bring in the Google team for disclosure. #Pwn2Own#P2OVancouver
Big change coming to @USENIXSecurity starting 2025. "Starting with USENIX Security '25, we will be decoupling paper publication from paper presentation, so not all papers will have full-length talk presentations at the conference." https://t.co/nsfpHh8Sl1
This was exploited in the wild and is a Type Confusion vulnerability in Safari DFG JIT (CVE-2023-32439). This vulnerability causes type confusion because `EnumeratorNextUpdateIndexAndMode` and `HasIndexedProperty` are different DFG Nodes but share the same heap location kind.
I am happy to announce that "BaseComp: A Comparative Analysis for Integrity Protection in Cellular Baseband Software" is accepted to Usenix Security '23. This work is related to static analysis to find logical bugs in baseband firmware.
This is Huge. A UCLA student may have just found the first feasible Indistinguishability Obfuscation (iO) scheme, based on well-understood cryptographic theories.
In other words, imagine an obfuscator/packer that is nearly as difficult to crack as AES.
The research validates the creation of an (iO) scheme for all polynomial-size circuits (i.e. computer programs of a reasonable size)
Malware and DRM could start to get really, really interesting in the next few years.
