Web cache poisoning: attack mechanics and prevention
A 2024 academic scan of the Tranco Top 1000 domains found roughly 17% vulnerable to web cache poisoning — here's how the attack works and how to stop it at the edge.
Deep dives, practical guides, and incident analyses from engineers who build Safeguard. No fluff, no vendor FUD — just what you need to ship secure software.

Two Critical Wasmtime sandbox-escape CVEs landed on the same day in April 2026 — proof that a wasm sandbox is only as strong as the runtime enforcing it.
One heap buffer overflow in a 15-year-old image codec forced Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Electron apps, and entire Linux distros to ship emergency patches within days.
XS-Leaks bypass the Same-Origin Policy without running a single line of attacker script — they read state through timing, frame counts, and error events instead.
A CVSS 10.0 backdoor sat in xz 5.6.0 and 5.6.1 for weeks, hidden in a test file, until 0.5 seconds of extra SSH login latency gave it away.
How to get affordable software composition analysis in 2026 — what SCA should cost, why free scanners aren't really free, and how Safeguard's $1 Starter plan delivers real SCA.
Agent-based scanning installs software on each system to watch it from the inside. Agentless scanning inspects from the outside with no installation. One sees deeper; the other deploys faster.
How CSRF and XSS actually work against ASP.NET Core apps, and the concrete defenses, antiforgery tokens, Razor output encoding, CSP, and SameSite cookies, that shut them down.
How automated vulnerability fixing works across source code and container images — direct and transitive dependencies, breaking-change safety, and where human review belongs.
