Hi everyone, GitHub's CodeQL is a powerful semantic code analysis engine for identifying vulnerabilities across codebases. We've extended CodeQL to support Solidity, the most popular programming language for smart contracts. CodeQL enables you to query code as though it were data, and it's open-source (OSS). You can check it out here: . The product page is available at . CodeQL has its own licensing model, which you can find at https://codeql.github.com/. TL;DR: CodeQL is free for research and open-source projects.

Hello, Are you curious to discover which snippets of your code were copied from Stackoverflow? Where else on the Internet are those icons that you copied a long time ago? Or simply to discover which licenses apply to the open source in your code? There's an app for that: http://triplecheck.net/quantum/ Development of this tooling took over two years, we archived over 630Tb of open source data around the web. Some sources of data have gone offline in the meanwhile but we kept a copy for posterity. Things to consider: - Stackoverflow snippet detection is limited to Java at…

Hi HN, I'm Dan Draper, founder of CipherStash. We've spent 5 years building per-value searchable encryption tech. We realized that encryption like this is incredibly powerful but the engineering required is generally not worth the effort. So we built a platform and opensource SDK to take the cry out of cryptography :) CipherStash Stack is: * A searchable encryption SDK for TS and Postgres * Fast, key management with Zerokms (backed by HSM) * A transparent SQL proxy * Auth library and OIDC federation service * Skills for data security Integrations include Prisma Next, Drizzle, Auth0, Clerk…

I built this after seeing multiple teams accidentally ship API keys in their frontend code. The problem: Modern web development moves fast. You're vibe-coding, shipping features, and suddenly your AWS keys are sitting in a tag visible to anyone who opens DevTools. I've personally witnessed this happen to at least 3-4 production apps in the past year alone. KeyLeak Detector runs through your site (headless browser + network interception) and checks for 50+ types of leaked secrets: AWS/Google keys, Stripe tokens, database connection strings, LLM API keys (OpenAI, Claude, etc.), JWT…

Hello all, Very excited to share this project with you all! Panoptisch scans your Python file or module to find it's imports (aka dependencies) and recursively does so for all dependencies and sub-dependencies. It then generates a dependency tree in JSON for you to parse and enforce import policies. Supply chain attacks are no joke, and this is one way to transparently analyze your dependencies to see if any malicious imports are taking place. For example, your yaml parser, nor it's sub-dependencies should import socket, or sys. Panoptisch is in early stages, with known limitations (for…

Hi HN, we have recently completed a research project on how to encrypt emails with post-quantum secure algorithms as well as Forward Secrecy. We'd love to hear your feedback and discuss technical issues. The paper can be found here: https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/875

I'm an "ideas person" who messes around with AI on a low budget. I got tired of watching my tokens vanish and context windows filling up while agents fumbled around trying to find the right thing. Agents don't flail like they used to with shell tools, but there are still weak/blind spots and back-and-forth episodes — especially when using tools in combination/sequence. So I built "tilth" today. Or rather, AI built it — every line is Opus 4.6. I spent a lot of my precious tokens getting it to "not shit" (at least several of the different vendors' AI overlords assure me it's not…

Hi HN, we are the developers from Tuta (formerly Tutanota), the German end-to-end encrypted email provider, and we recently released the world's first post-quantum encryption for email. We have included a full technical write-up of the cryptography involved in these changes and we have released it for open public review. This document specifies TutaCrypt, a protocol designed for hybrid email encryption in Tuta Mail. The protocol combines a classical Elliptic-Curve-Diffie-Hellman key exchange with a post-quantum KEM. The goal is to replace the usage of RSA in Tuta Mail. In the remainder of…

We originally set out to solve complex debugging headaches and useless alerts caused by traditional security scanners in our own projects. Static Analysis (SAST) flagged too much noise because it couldn't verify runtime context, while Dynamic Analysis (DAST) missed internal logic bugs because it treated the app like a black box. We built a CLI tool to bridge this gap using grey box testing from a red team approach. We use internal knowledge of the codebase to guide parallel execution, allowing us to find complex or hidden logic errors and attack paths standard linters/scanners miss. The…

I’ve been experimenting with structured logic as a way to frame search spaces — not in an academic way, just as a personal project. I wanted to know: what happens if you initialize a brute-force run with a simple equality like xy = x / y? Not as a filter, just as a logical ignition point. I used AES-256-CBC encrypted files with UUID passwords and tested against a 1 million UUID space. It cracked it in under 40 seconds. Then I scaled it to a 1 billion UUID range, and it still found the key without issue. This isn’t a crypto tool, and I’m not trying to solve any cryptographic problems.…

I built a GitHub app that detects it in pull requests, notifies or blocks them. Alongside it, I published a Semgrep ruleset for any stage of the CI/CD. I started this after getting frustrated by all the FUD around malicious code - lots of noise, little effort to solve it. Having said that, it's still a major attack vector - a stored RCE, with the codebase itself as the sink. Feedback is appreciated. The app, PRevent - https://github.com/apiiro/PRevent The ruleset: https://github.com/apiiro/malicious-code-ruleset The research:…
