Field notes from the edge.
What our engineers learned this week. Hands-on technical deep-dives, postmortems, and strategy frameworks.
AIDarkSword Malware
DarkSword is a sophisticated, likely government-designed iOS malware exploiting six zero-day vulnerabilities across iOS versions 18.4-18.7, deployed by multiple commercial surveillance vendors and state-sponsored actors since November 2025. The exploit chain has been used in targeted campaigns across Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Malaysia, and Ukraine, deploying three distinct malware families post-compro
AIRowhammer Attack Against NVIDIA Chips
Two independent research teams have demonstrated critical Rowhammer attacks against NVIDIA Ampere-generation GPUs that exploit GDDR memory bitflips to gain complete control over host CPU memory and achieve full system compromise. The attacks, named GDDRHammer and GeForge, work by corrupting GPU page tables to escalate privileges to root access, with a third attack variant functioning even when IOM
