After many months, my coworker and I’s research is published! We discovered hundreds of thousands of compromised ASUS routers. Please give it a read! I am very proud of finding this IOC and can’t wait to find more! We call it Operation WrtHug.

Operation WrtHug, The Global Espionage Campaign Hiding in Your Home Router
SecurityScorecard’s STRIKE team uncovers how attackers turned thousands of ASUS routers into a worldwide spy network.

I’ve kind of made amends with the idea that I’m getting too old for my passions and hobbies and I’m going to have to bury that part of myself.

Work, life, family, relationships. Sad cause I love films and making movies and scripts but I’m just not able to do that anymore.

Maybe in another life.

Last week we dropped research on Operation WrtHug: tens of thousands of older ASUS WRT routers hijacked via AiCloud CVEs and tagged with one 100-year TLS cert, exposing a global mesh of suspected China-linked relay nodes.

@fcpnchstds.bsky.social just "open sourced" S&Box. I love this so much. Looking at the code right now and seeing what I can contribute. This will be the closest I get to valve source 2 code 😅

I want to give a huge thank you to @dangoodin.bsky.social for the fantastic article on our WrtHug research. My team and I are very proud of these findings, and my colleague and I really enjoyed answering your questions.

The article is a very informative deep dive:

How to know if your Asus router is one of thousands hacked by China-state hackers
So far, the hackers are laying low, likely for later use.

Just landed my first contribution to @valvesoftware.com (steam-audio#400)! 🎮 Small documentation improvements for now, but excited to grow my impact. Looking forward to contributing to Steam Deck aka Proton/Wine development to improve gaming on Linux.

man, researchers are magicians. They figured out a way to turn one photo into an accurate 3D model in less than a second. It creates a point cloud with diffusion, then cleans it into a full 3D mesh. wow…
