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 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.

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…

We have been building a platform that analyzes quantum-vulnerable cryptography across four layers: Source code parses ASTs to find RSA, ECC, DH, and weak symmetric algorithms and generates fix suggestions pointing to NIST PQC replacements (ML-KEM, ML-DSA, SLH-DSA) Binaries disassembles PE, ELF, and Mach-O files to detect crypto patterns without source access Network endpoints probes TLS/SSH to identify deprecated cipher suites and whether the endpoint supports hybrid post-quantum key exchange Certificates checks signature algorithms and key parameters against post-quantum readiness…

What PII-Shield does: It's a K8s sidecar (or CLI tool) that pipes application logs, detects secrets using Shannon entropy (catching unknown keys like "sk-live-..." without predefined patterns), and redacts them deterministically using HMAC. Why deterministic? So that "pass123" always hashes to the same "[HIDDEN:a1b2c]", allowing QA/Devs to correlate errors without seeing the raw data. Key features: 1. JSON Integrity: It parses JSON, sanitizes values, and rebuilds it. It guarantees valid JSON output for your SIEM (ELK/Datadog). 2. Entropy Detection: Uses context-aware entropy…

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.…
