🤖 BoxPwnr/grok-4-fast solved 137 PortSwigger labs out of 270 - 50.7% Using a basic scaffolding: single agent (~while true loop), no tools, no context management. This represents our baseline. XBOW solved 75% a year ago 👏 Now, the question is: how to get that 25% extra?

BoxPwnr using Claude Code as an agent to solve a very easy HackTheBox Machine, Synced BoxPwnr starts a docker container, configures the VPN, activates the machine in HTB, checks connectivity and then let's Claude Code do the rest, with you in the loop Sound: On 🎚️Civilization🎵

You are probably gonna hate me for the title of this blogpost, but, here is a quick peek into one of the most surprising components of our @DARPA AIxCC CRS: DiscoveryGuy. support.shellphish.net/blog/2025/09/0… (Planning to publish a few more of these "quick peek" into the system 👀)

Checkout the Post-Mortem of our system ARTIPHISHELL (by @degrigis and I)! We look at a few issues that kept @shellphish from a top-3 spot in @DARPA’s AIxCC: support.shellphish.net/blog/2025/08/2… Keep your eyes out for more ARTIPHISHELL content in the future!
The second post in my AIxCC series is out. This one breaks down the rules and scoring—key to understanding why teams built their systems the way they did. It also analyzes teams results and why some of them found less vulns but were scored higher! algillera.substack.com/p/aixcc-series…

Back at Defcon after years away. The highlight? DARPA’s AI Cyber Challenge (AIxCC). It blew me away—and inspired me to launch a new personal blog. I'm doing a series of posts about AIxCC. The first one is out: algillera.substack.com/aixcc-series-i…

Is there any playlist with the songs played between talks at @BlackHatEvents. They are soooo cool!
Really cool talk at Blackhat to train models on a specific task, in this case malware development bypassing AVS. Single purpose model are way better than general ones. Model was released: outflank.nl/blog/2025/08/0…

One of my all-time favorite type of videos is pre-fame bands playing their extremely famous songs to a tiny room of people, because they're not yet known. A thread of some examples: Bastille playing Pompeii in what looks like someone's living room:
