This blog post provides details about four vulnerabilities we found in the IPv6 stack of FreeBSD, more specifically in rtsold(8), the router solicitation daemon. The bugs affected all supported versions of FreeBSD, and the most severe of them could allow an attacker attached to the same physical link to gain remote code execution as root on vulnerable systems. The vulnerabilities were discovered and reported to FreeBSD Security Team in November 2020. FreeBSD issued fixes for these bugs on December 1st, 2020 along with security advisory FreeBSD-SA-20:32.rtsold.

This blog post analyzes the vulnerability known as "Bad Neighbor" or CVE-2020-16898, a stack-based buffer overflow in the IPv6 stack of Windows, which can be remotely triggered by means of a malformed Router Advertisement packet.

This third article from the Samsung's TrustZone series details some vulnerabilities that were found and how they were exploited to obtain code execution in EL3.

A look at the new Fuchsia Operating System.

Ansible is an open-source software automating configuration management and software deployment. Ansible is used in Quarkslab to manage our infrastructure and in our product Irma. In order to have an idea of the security of Ansible, we conducted a security assessment. This blogpost presents our findings.

In the context of the Inter-CESTI 2019 challenge, we "accidentally" found a timing difference disclosing the length of a PIN handled via the standard OwnerPIN.check JavaCard API. Here is the story.

In March 2020, Google patched a critical vulnerability affecting many MediaTek based devices. This vulnerability had been known by MediaTek since April 2019, and later exploited in the wild! In this post, we give some details about this vulnerability and see how we can use it to achieve kernel memory reads and writes.

This blog post presents a vulnerability which affects the widely installed Android web browser.

On September 2018, FreeBSD published the security advisory FreeBSD-SA-18:12, fixing a kernel memory disclosure vulnerability affecting all the supported versions of this operating system.

Broadcom is one of the major vendors of wireless devices worldwide. Since these chips are so widespread they constitute a high value target to attackers and any vulnerability found in them should be considered to pose high risk. In this blog post I provide an account of my internship at Quarkslab which included obtaining, reversing and fuzzing the firmware, and finding a few new vulnerabilities.
