Analysis of documented WebAssembly sandbox escape vulnera...
Real documented WASM sandbox escape cases in Wasmtime and Wasmer, covering affected versions, severity, disclosure timelines, and how to remediate.
How the WASI security model constrains system access for ...
WASI's capability model gives Wasm modules only the exact files, sockets, and resources they're explicitly granted—but misconfiguration and runtime bugs still leave real gaps to close.
Practical steps to secure third-party WebAssembly plugins...
A step-by-step guide to securing third-party WebAssembly plugins in production: sandboxing, capability restriction, resource limits, provenance checks, and runtime monitoring.
Security considerations for running WebAssembly at the ed...
Wasm's sandbox is safe by default, not safe by construction. Here's where edge WebAssembly security breaks down -- in browsers, at the edge, and in the build pipeline.
Best SLSA-compliant build systems
A fair comparison of SLSA compliant build systems—GitHub Actions, Cloud Build, GitLab, Tekton Chains—with real strengths and limitations for Build Level 3.
NoSQL Injection Attack Techniques
NoSQL injection lets attackers bypass logins and hijack MongoDB/CouchDB apps using operators like $ne and $where. Here's how it works and how to stop it.
XPath Injection Vulnerabilities
XPath injection lets attackers rewrite XML queries to bypass logins and steal data. Here is how it works, real incidents, and how Safeguard defends against it.
Object Injection Vulnerabilities in PHP and Node.js
PHP's unserialize() and Node's insecure deserialization both let attackers forge objects and execute code. Here's how object injection works and how to stop it.
Expression Language Injection (ELI) in Java Applications
Expression language injection in Java has powered some of the decade's worst breaches, from Equifax to Confluence. Here's how OGNL and SpEL flaws actually get exploited.
DOM-Based XSS: Client-Side Sink Vulnerabilities
DOM-based XSS sink vulnerabilities let attacker data reach dangerous JavaScript sinks without touching the server, slipping past WAFs and static scanners.
Prototype Pollution in JavaScript Applications
Prototype pollution has hit lodash, jQuery, and minimist with real CVEs, from DoS to RCE. Here's how the bug works and how Safeguard catches it before it ships.
ReDoS: Regular Expression Denial of Service Attacks
ReDoS took down Cloudflare's global network for 27 minutes in 2019 and Stack Overflow in 2016. Here's how one bad regex causes an outage, and how to catch it first.
