    Entra ID Conditional Access Optimization Agent: AI-driven policy gap detection
    Microsoft's Conditional Access Optimization Agent uses AI to continuously scan your Microsoft Entra ID environment for policy gaps and recommend remediations. It requires a Microsoft Entra ID P1 license and a Microsoft Security Copilot subscription. Several new features are in public preview, including context-aware recommendations, deep gap analysis across all policies, and phased policy rollouts.

    Master C and C++ with our new Testing Handbook chapter
    We added a new chapter to our Testing Handbook: a comprehensive security checklist for C and C++ code. We’ve identified a broad range of common bug classes, known footguns, and API gotchas across C and C++ codebases and organized them into sections covering Linux, Windows, and seccomp. Whereas other handbook chapters focus on static and dynamic analysis, this chapter offers a strong basis for manual code review. LLM enthusiasts rejoice: we’re also developing a Claude skill based on this new chapter. It will turn the checklist into bug-finding prompts that an LLM can run against a codebase, and it’ll be platform and threat-model aware. Be sure to give it a try when we release it.

    Node.js Trust Falls: Dangerous Module Resolution on Windows
    In September of 2024, ZDI received a vulnerability submission from an anonymous researcher affecting npm CLI that revealed a fundamental design issue in Node.js. This blog details how it continues to expose applications to local privilege escalation (LPE) attacks on Windows systems, including the Discord desktop app (CVE-2026-0776 0-Day), which remains unpatched and vulnerable. The issue is straightforward: when Node.js resolves modules, the runtime searches for packages in C:\node_modules as part of its default behavior. Since low-privileged Windows users can create this directory and plant malicious modules there, any Node.js application with missing or optional dependencies becomes vulnerable to privilege escalation. This issue is not new. Concerned discussions about Node.js's module se…

    What we learned about TEE security from auditing WhatsApp's Private Inference
    WhatsApp’s new “Private Inference” feature represents one of the most ambitious attempts to combine end-to-end encryption with AI-powered capabilities, such as message summarization. To make this possible, Meta built a system that processes encrypted user messages inside trusted execution environments (TEEs), secure hardware enclaves designed so that not even Meta can access the plaintext. Our now-public audit, conducted before launch, identified several vulnerabilities that compromised WhatsApp’s privacy model, all of which Meta has patched. Our findings show that TEEs aren’t a silver bullet: every unmeasured input and missing validation can become a vulnerability, and to securely deploy TEEs, developers need to measure critical data, validate and never trust any unmeasured data, and test…  ( 6 min )

    Mail-Advanced.ReadWrite permissions required to change sensitive email properties in Exchange Online via Graph API
    Microsoft announced a breaking change to the Microsoft Graph API affecting Exchange Online: from December 31, 2026, applications that modify sensitive email properties -- such as the subject, body, or recipients -- on delivered messages must hold elevated Mail-Advanced.ReadWrite permissions. Until now, the standard Mail.ReadWrite permission was sufficient for these operations. The new permissions require explicit approval from the tenant administrator ("admin consent"). If you operate Microsoft 365 and have custom applications or third-party tools that interact with email via the Graph API, you need to audit and potentially update these apps before the enforcement date.

    Simplifying MBA obfuscation with CoBRA
    Mixed Boolean-Arithmetic (MBA) obfuscation disguises simple operations like x + y behind tangles of arithmetic and bitwise operators.

    Try our new dimensional analysis Claude plugin
    We’re releasing a new Claude plugin for developing and auditing code that implements dimensional analysis, a technique we explored in our most recent blog post. Most LLM-based security skills ask the model to find bugs. Our new dimensional-analysis plugin for Claude Code takes a different approach: it uses the LLM to annotate your codebase with dimensional types, then flags mismatches mechanically. In testing against real audit findings, it achieved 93% recall versus 50% for baseline prompts. You can download and use our new dimensional-analysis plugin by running these commands: How our plugin differs from most skills This plugin release is quite different from the wave of security analysis skills released over the past few weeks. The skills we’ve seen tend to take a relatively simple appr…  ( 4 min )

    Spotting issues in DeFi with dimensional analysis
    Using dimensional analysis, you can categorically rule out a whole category of logic and arithmetic bugs that plague DeFi formulas. No code changes required, just better reasoning! One of the first lessons in physics is learning to think in terms of dimensions. Physicists can often spot a flawed formula in seconds just by checking whether the dimensions make sense. I once had a teacher who even kept a stamp that said “non-homogeneous formula” for that purpose (and it was used a lot on students’ work). Developers can use the same approach to spot incorrect arithmetic in smart contracts. In this post, we’ll start with the basics of dimensional analysis in physics and then apply the same reasoning to real DeFi formulas. We’ll also show you how this can be implemented in practice, using Reserv…  ( 7 min )
