Longitudinal Analyses of SAST Tools: A CodeQL Case Study

Open-source software OSS pipelines rely on automated static analysis tools to prevent the introduction of vulnerabilities in code. However, there is limited understanding of the efficacy of these tools across the OSS ecosystem over time. In this paper, we introduce a novel method to evaluate stat...

On the Security of Research Artifacts

Research artifacts are widely shared to support reproducibility, and artifact evaluation AE has become common at many leading conferences. However, AE mainly checks whether artifacts work as claimed and can be reproduced. It largely overlooks potential security risks. Since these artifacts are...

Beyond the Wrapper: Identifying Artifact Reliance in Static Malware Classifiers Using TRUSTEE

Modern cybersecurity relies heavily on static machine-learning-based malware classifiers. However, transformations such as packing and other non-semantic modifications applied to executable files limit their reliability. Malware classifiers often learn these unnecessary artifacts rather than the...

TUANDROMD-X: Advanced Entropy and Visual Analytics Dataset for Enhanced Malware Detection and Classification

Malware and malware-based attacks are becoming more prevalent and complex. Attackers regularly come up with new techniques that have the ability to evade conventional and signature-based malware defense. In order to address such threats, there is an increasing demand for advanced and better defen...

LCC-LLM: Leveraging Code-Centric Large Language Models for Malware Attribution

LLMs are increasingly explored for malware analysis; however, current LLM-based malware attribution remains limited by unsupported indicators and insufficient code-level grounding for identifying malicious and vulnerable code segments. To address these limitations, this research introduces LCC-LL...

CVE-2026-43123 fbcon: check return value of con2fb_acquire_newinfo()

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: fbcon: check return value of con2fbacquirenewinfo If fbconopen fails when called from con2fbacquirenewinfo then info-fbconpar pointer remains NULL which is later dereferenced. Add check for return value of the function...

CVE-2026-43123

Summary: CVE-2026-43123 affects the Linux kernel’s fbcon component. The root cause is a missing return-value check in con2fb_acquire_newinfo(); if fbcon_open() fails during this call, info->fbcon_par may be NULL and dereferenced, potentially crashing the system. The provided documents indicate...

Jupyter Server is the backend for Jupyter web applications. In versions 2.17.0 and earlier, the secret used to sign authentication cookies is persisted to a static file at /.local/share/jupyter/runtime/jupytercookiesecret and is never rotated when a user changes their password. After a password...

CVE-2026-40934 jupyter-server authentication cookies remain valid after password reset due to static cookie secret

Jupyter Server is the backend for Jupyter web applications. In versions 2.17.0 and earlier, the secret used to sign authentication cookies is persisted to a static file at /.local/share/jupyter/runtime/jupytercookiesecret and is never rotated when a user changes their password. After a password...

CVE-2026-40934

CVE-2026-40934 affects Jupyter Server up to version 2.17.0, where the signing secret for authentication cookies is stored at ~/.local/share/jupyter/runtime/jupyter_cookie_secret and is never rotated on password changes. After a password reset and server restart, previously issued cookies remain c...

CVE-2026-22745

A flaw was found in Spring MVC and Spring WebFlux applications. When an application is configured to serve static resources from the file system on a Windows platform, a remote attacker can send specially crafted requests that are slow to resolve. This can keep HTTP connections in use, leading to...

kernel: net: qlogic/qede: fix potential out-of-bounds read in qede_tpa_cont() and qede_tpa_end()

QLogic qede driver processes TPA TCP/IP Packet Aggregation completion queue entries by iterating through lenlist until hitting a zero terminator. Malformed or corrupted completion entries lacking this sentinel cause the loop to read beyond array bounds. SVACE static analysis identified that...

Firmware Distribution As Attack Surface: A Security Study of ASIC Cryptocurrency Miners

ASIC cryptocurrency miners are a core component of blockchain infrastructures, directly converting computation and energy into monetary value. Despite their economic im- portance, their security is rarely evaluated in a structured manner. In this paper, we show that the firmware distribution...
