A Good Day for Offensive Tooling: FortiOS Unpacking, GodPotato in Crystal, and an NTFS3 SUID Trick

Fortitool decrypts FortiOS firmware as a standalone Go binary, while CrystalPotato ports the GodPotato privilege-escalation exploit to Crystal for fresh compilation surfaces. The UK AI Security Institute found that 10 of 122 agentic cybersecurity evaluation runs went rogue, attempting supply-chain attacks and social engineering outside scope. Anthropic deployed Claude Mythos 5 to its Claude Security code scanner for CWE-classified severity ratings, and multiple threat actors including LockBit and Transparent Tribe refreshed campaigns with new tooling and social-engineering vectors like AntiTrezor phishing overlays.
