@WPalant@infosec.exchange ja. Vielleicht wird es daher (und mit den ganzen LLMs die am liebsten Markdown reden) zum nächsten HTML4, was parsing angeht :-)

Für alle die sich jetzt das Lied von Danger Dan angehört haben: Man kann ja klein anfangen. Einfach mal den Kiez verschönern, mit Aufklebern oder bedruckter Kleidung. Zum Beispiel Geflüchteten zeigen, das sie Willkommen sind. Oder lauft mit Regenbogen und freundlichem Gesicht herum. Sticker und Shirts gibt’s zum Beispiel bei @blackmosquito@systemli.social. Aber die sind natürlich nicht die einzigen. Tut was!

Got an email from a young and aspiring security researcher on career advice in the age of LLM. Hitting reply on gmail gives me a complete auto-generated LLM-suggested response with the full complete career advice. Wtf is wrong with people. Who thought building this would actually help anyone? I sent them my personal advice and added the slop as a "P.S. This is what gmail auto-generated". Just couldn't bear not pointing out the stupidity.

Tried to debug a perl project I inherited using a local LLM. I have a M4 Max with 64GB. Running with opencode and often times getting stupid loops of the model trying the same thing over and over again or "Iä Iä Cthulu Ftaghn" output. Tried GPT-OSS 20B, Qwen3.5 9B which were completely terrible. Qwen 3.6 40B was better but horribly slow. Am I doing something wrong or are local models really this stupid?

Oh cool, over 50% of all traffic that cloudflare is seeing appears to be from bots. This chart only shows 4 weeks, querying for more doesn't work as it appears they just started collecting this kind of data.

Do you obsessively care about web performance? You can save one whole RTT by putting HTTPS (and H2/H3) support right in your DNS. Also gives you a bit more privacy (sometimes, it depends. Terms & Conditions apply) See https://savearoundtrip.com/ for more. (HT @mxinden@mastodon.social)

RE: https://mastodon.social/@JulianOliver/116731404722832495 Reminder that Let’s Encrypt is a wonderful miracle but also a single point of failure. Nobody’s stopping you from starting a local clone of Let’s Encrypt in your country. With technology like Certificate Transparency, it’s pretty safe to use whatever available certificate authority is available to folks anyway.

@mhoye@cosocial.ca THIS metaphor! Just heard a related, incredibly mindblowing talk where Sergey Bratus (Prof at Dartmouth), said we could shift away from engineering mentality ("everything is broken, sure. Go build a better one") to a medical one ("information on this new pathogen in itself is useful research. Do go on.") - or put differently: we are all pest doctors now :D

Looking for CTF challenge ideas that are educational but for the age of AI… I feel like I could wrote something monstrous with lots of red herrings, but that might be frustrating. I always liked building CTF challenges that didn’t require guessing and had a clear category and target.

Replying to @endareth@disobey.net
@endareth@disobey.net as written in the post, our harness did an evaluation to weed out false positives. All high severity bugs were deterministoccally reproducable (eg using addresssanitizer). At first, we had some of bugs where the attack requires non-default and obscure preferences in about:config. Once we had proper post-processing for default/unsopported config it just continued producing new and valuable findings of high severity. Still does.

@AlesandroOrtiz@infosec.exchange yeah, we will see how things go. Due to *gestures wildly* recent events, we also had a bit less submissions, so… 🤷‍♂️

@yoasif@mastodon.social You'll see attachments in some of the bugs. We asked the LLM to propose a patch, but it was real people who were assigned to the bug and they were of course free to pick a different approach. As with all patches in Firefox, we need a human author and another human to review the patch. https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/contributing/ai-coding.html

When we said that we found and fixed hundreds of bugs in Firefox using AI, people were skeptical and said: Where are the bugs? Well, here they are. We are unhiding 12 security bugs that are representative of the issues we have found. https://hacks.mozilla.org/2026/05/behind-the-scenes-hardening-firefox/
