Episode description

This week on Technado, Daniel and Sophie kick off Rapid Fire with some highlights from Pwn2Own Vancouver. Then, we jump into a novel cred-harvesting phishing campaign, CozyBear's latest attack on German politicos, and a special Pork Chop Sandwiches segment: millions of hotel door locks are impacted by a 36-year-old flaw. We wrap up the Rapid Fire with the Nemesis Market takedown, yet another update on CISA's Ivanti troubles, and the "unpatchable" exploit affecting Apple M-series chips.

In another Python-focused Deep Dive, Daniel takes us through a supply chain cyberattack that's impacting thousands of GitHub users and developers. To close the segment, we take a quick look at a new Loop DoS attack that targets app-layer protocols.
