watch out for traffic to 164.92.88[.]210. If you see it you might have an infected host on your network (even though nothing bad will happen anymore, that host is a sinkhole).

Ihr könnt jetzt keiner Consulting Bude, die Euch einen KI Bericht liefert, mehr trauen. Das sind die Schippenverkäufer, die neben dem -hersteller Nvidia noch Geld verdienen. Fast alle anderen zahlen drauf. Ihr fast sicher auch.

Und wenn die KI einen Security Report mit falschen Referenzen generiert und Ihr den jemandem vorlegt, seid Ihr übrigens voll verantwortlich.

Ein Backup ist kein Backup, solange es nicht wiederhergestellt wurde. Viele merken erst im Ernstfall, dass ihre Sicherung seit Monaten stillsteht. Wer seine Daten wirklich schützen will, testet die Wiederherstellung - bevor der Ernstfall das Testen übernimmt.

fun trick: if someone gives a hosted LLM a skill that lets it fetch web pages (directly, not through some third party scraper service) and it's hosted on AWS, you can often trick it into fetching data from the AWS instance metadata server (IMDS) at 169.254.169.254 / [fd00:ec2::254]. the higher end models tend to refuse if you give the IP, but you can just spin up a domain with A/AAAA records pointing at that IP and request that instead. if IMDSv1 isn't disabled you can get secrets out of it.

NIST has given up on CVE's. They can't deal with it anymore.

https://www.nist.gov/news-events/news/2026/04/nist-updates-nvd-operations-address-record-cve-growth

#NIST is from now on only reviewing "important" CVE's.
This means that only if it affects the (us) government or its really bad they will review CVE Submissions.

Around 90% of the submissions will not be reviewed anymore (for now)
