Carving is the art of recovering deleted data that turns unallocated space into a digital treasure hunt. Whether it’s piecing together encrypted archives or resurrecting forgotten records from virtual disks, carving techniques offer a thrill akin to finding socks that match after laundry day.

To “make malware happy,” treat it like a houseguest—respect its needs and recreate its original environment. Forget to do so, and it might throw a tantrum or simply vanish! So, roll out the red carpet: match user rights, paths, OS versions, and names. Remember, a disgruntled malware is no laughing matter!

In the world of cybersecurity, hashes are like digital fingerprints for files. They’re great for spotting malware or confirming files are safe. With tools like SHA256, you can hunt threats or ensure your files are squeaky clean. Just remember, not all hashes are evil—some are downright angelic!

Meet “Bad Likert Judge,” the jailbreak technique that asks AI to rate harmfulness on a Likert scale and then flaunts safety guardrails like they’re optional. With attack success rates soaring over 60%, this method isn’t your typical AI jailbreak – it’s more like an AI jailbreak with a judging panel!

Sextortion emails are getting a sneaky upgrade with Unicode tricks, evading traditional security filters. While your security system may be busy taking a nap, attackers are busy breaking it with these clever techniques. The key to decoding? OCR technology, but it’s not foolproof and might need a coffee break from all that CPU usage!

Multiple vulnerabilities were found in CTFd versions, particularly in token handling. These issues could potentially allow unauthorized access or data manipulation. Users are advised to update to the latest version to avoid any unwanted surprises. Don’t let hackers turn your Capture The Flag into Capture The Panic!

IBM i Navigator is vulnerable to HTTP security token bypass, CVE-2024-51464. Attackers can manipulate token digits to bypass restrictions, tricking the server into accepting invalid tokens. This flaw allows unauthorized operations, making it a significant security concern. Remember, in cybersecurity, zeroes aren’t always heroes!
