In this post, I’ll look at CVE-2023-6241, a vulnerability in the Arm Mali GPU that allows a malicious app to gain arbitrary kernel code execution and root on an Android phone. I’ll show how this vulnerability can be exploited even when Memory Tagging Extension (MTE), a powerful mitigation, is enabled on the device.
Learn about how we run a scalable vulnerability management program built on top of GitHub.
This blog post describes two linked vulnerabilities found in Frigate, an AI-powered security camera manager, that could have enabled an attacker to silently gain remote code execution.
The GitHub Security Lab examined the most popular open source software running on our home labs, with the aim of enhancing its security. Here’s what we found and what you can do to better protect your own smart home.
Learn the basics of CodeQL and how to use it for security research! In this blog, we will teach you how to leverage GitHub’s static analysis tool CodeQL to write custom CodeQL queries.
In this blog, I’ll look at CVE-2022-46395, a variant of CVE-2022-36449 (Project Zero issue 2327), and use it to gain arbitrary kernel code execution and root privileges from the untrusted app domain on an Android phone that uses the Arm Mali GPU. I’ll also explain how root cause analysis of CVE-2022-36449 led to the discovery of CVE-2022-46395.
Learn more about static analysis and how to use it for security research! In this blog post series, we will take a closer look at static analysis concepts, present GitHub’s static analysis tool CodeQL, and teach you how to leverage static analysis for security research by writing custom CodeQL queries.
