#CVE-2025-55182: RSC RCE — It functions as an in-memory webshell backdoor, offering a significantly more covert foothold. Please verify this again on your own endpoint.
Using @Burp_Suite and a website playing a new trick on you?
This happens but no fear (most of the times)!
The screenshot here shows a Java TLS limit. Recent JDKs added jdk.tls.maxHandshakeMessageSize (default 32768 bytes)
Use "-Djdk.tls.maxHandshakeMessageSize=65536" to solve this. Add this to the end of the ".vmoptions" file if you have it installed.

Additionally, I've run into WAFs blocking or blacklisting any more than 1 directory up (e.g ../../). These paths weren't blocked. Another Java-ish payload is the popular Tomcat/nginx normalization bypass /..;/. I see it mostly present in Java apps
If you think you've found a path traversal, instead of throwing /etc/passwd and similar paths, check if the app is java-based using Wappalyzer. I've scored a few bounties by trying the following:
?file=../WEB-INF/web.xml
?file=../META-INF/MANIFEST.MF

@hack1or0@adrielsec Impact is that the victim is sent a link for a known website and it redirects you to an attacker's site that is mocked up to look like the legitimate site. They can then perform a watering hole attack to ideally obtain the victim's plaintext credentials.
Finished in 1st place at the Red Team CTF @ #DEFCON 31. @RedTeamVillage_
Started off playing the event solo, but I was joined in the finals by my fellow teammates from Team Europe, @sijsu and @s3np41k1r1t0 to get the win.
Thank you ThreatSims and @hackthebox_eu for the event!
🚨 Attention 🚨
We’re asking everyone that was at the RTV CTF today in Cesar’s Forum to CHECK their swag bags. Unfortunately, someone walked away with one belonging to one of one of our volunteers. It is vital that we locate it as it contains his ID etc.
DM us if located! 🙏🏾
