Well, well, well - look what we’re back with.
You may recall that merely two weeks ago, we analyzed CVE-2025-52691 - a pre-auth RCE vulnerability in the SmarterTools SmarterMail email solution with a timeline that is typically reserved for KEV holders.
The plot of that story had everything;
* A government agency
* Vague patch notes (in our opinion)
* Fairly tense forum posts
* Accusations of in-the-wild exploitation
The sort of thing dreams are made of~
Why Are We Here?
Well, as alway

Windows has supported computer telephony integration for decades, providing applications with the ability to manage phone devices, lines, and calls. While modern deployments increasingly rely on cloud-based telephony solutions, classic telephony services remain available out of the box in Windows and continue to be used in specialized environments. As a result, legacy telephony components still […]

Announcing GitHub Security Lab Taskflow Agent, an open source and collaborative framework for security research with AI.
Key findings Introduction In December 2025, a previously unknown Ransomware-as-a-Service (RaaS) operation calling itself Sicarii began advertising its services across multiple underground platforms. The group’s name references the Sicarii, a 1st-century Jewish assassins group that opposed Roman rule in Judea. From its initial appearance, the Sicarii ransomware group distinguished itself through unusually explicit and persistent use of Israeli […]
Mobile app security has become significantly harder over the past few years. Modern mobile applications rely on dozens of third-party SDKs, complex authentication flows, background services, deeplinks, and constant interaction with device-level APIs.

Welcome to 2026!
While we are all waiting for the scheduled SSLVPN ITW exploitation programming that occurs every January, we’re back from Christmas and idle hands, idle minds, yada yada.
In December, we were alerted to a vulnerability in SmarterTools’ SmarterMail solution, accompanied by an advisory from Singapore’s Cyber Security Agency (CSA) - CVE-2025-52691, a pre-auth RCE that obtained full marks (10/10) on the industry’s scale.
Vulnerabilities like these are always exciting, because whe
Eight years ago today, I started STAR Labs by hiring several fresh grads with no working experiences.
Today, I stand here with a different group of faces. Some of you were there from the beginning. Some of you joined along the way. Some of you just started last month.
And some of the people who were here… weren’t anymore.
Not because they failed. Not because we failed them. But because life called them in different directions.
Key takeaways Introduction GoBruteforcer is a botnet that turns compromised Linux servers into scanning and password brute-force nodes. It targets internet-exposed services such as phpMyAdmin web panels, MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, and FTP servers. Infected hosts are incorporated into the botnet and accept remote operator commands. Newly discovered weak credentials are used to steal data, […]

Introduction I’m sure most of you are already familiar with the concept of Prompt Injection and its various consequences. However, in 2026, any AI model without MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers can’t reach its full potential — that’s why developers are connecting numerous MCP servers to extend their capabilities.
Over the last year, security researchers have shared a huge amount of work with the community through blog posts, presentations, and whitepapers. This is great, but it also means genuinely reusable te

Every day, thousands of web services generate PDF (Portable Document Format) files—bills, contracts, reports. This step is often treated as a technical routine, “just convert the HTML,” but in practice it’s exactly where a trust boundary is crossed. The renderer parses HTML, downloads external resources, processes fonts, SVGs, and images, and sometimes has access to […]
Most will talk about the success in their year-end posts. Great. Nobody talks about the failures. Nobody talks about what ACTUALLY happened.
Well, we are going to tell you about OUR STORY - the success AND the failures. The whole thing. Because that’s how we actually learn…from our own mistakes.
So here it is, UNFILTERED. Buckle up.

The List-Unsubscribe SMTP header is standardized but often overlooked during security assessments. It allows email clients to provide an easy way for end-users to unsubscribe from mailing lists.
This post discusses how this header can be abused to perform Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) and Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) attacks in certain scenarios. Real-world examples involving Horde Webmail (CVE-2025-68673) and Nextcloud Mail App are provided to illustrate the risks.

Key Findings Introduction Check Point Research tracks a sustained, highly capable espionage cluster, which we refer to as Ink Dragon, and is referenced in other reports as CL-STA-0049, Earth Alux, or REF7707. This cluster is assessed by several vendors to be PRC-aligned. Since at least early 2023, Ink Dragon has repeatedly targeted government, telecom, and […]
