Business Logic Vulnerabilities Explained: Real Examples, Impact & How to Prevent Them

Imagine an online retailer running a promotion: “Spend $100 this month, get a $25 gift card.” It sounds simple encourage loyal shoppers to spend more. But due to a flaw in the app’s logic, a clever user discovers a loophole. They place enough orders to reach the $100 threshold and receive the gift card. Then, they cancel a small order to drop below the threshold only to make a new one that pushes their total back over $100.

Beyond Management: The Shift to Continuous Vulnerability Mitigation

In the fast-paced world of cybersecurity, threats evolve continuously, and so should your response. Traditional vulnerability management approaches-while useful-are no longer sufficient to address the dynamic nature of modern cyber risks. Organizations must move beyond management and embrace continuous vulnerability mitigation to ensure real-time protection and long-term resilience.

What Is PCI DSS and How Can Organizations Best Maintain Compliance?

The world is going cashless. The Federal Reserve reported that cash was used in just 16% of all U.S. transactions in 2024. And that number is expected to continue to decline. The widespread use of credit and debit cards, plus the rise of digital wallets and contactless payments, have reshaped the financial landscape, increasing flexibility as well as financial protection. However, it’s also increased the levels of fraud.

Lionishackers: Analyzing a corporate database seller

What We Found with OpenAI's Codex CLI Tool

In this video, I explore OpenAI’s Codex CLI tool to see how powerful it really is for coding with AI. But things quickly go off the rails… what started as a simple test ended with a surprise identity verification request. Apparently, to continue using the tool, I need to submit a government-issued ID and a photo of myself—something I didn’t expect at all. I talk through the process, show the error I ran into, and share my honest thoughts on this level of access and how invasive it feels for a developer tool.

Speeding Up Vulnerability Remediation Through Threat Correlation in XDR

In cybersecurity, speed matters. But so does clarity. When your organization is facing hundreds or thousands of known vulnerabilities, not every one deserves immediate attention. The real challenge is knowing which ones do and acting fast. That’s where the integration of threat correlation and extended detection and response (XDR) comes in. Vulnerability remediation isn’t just about patching; it’s about remediation with context.

ToolShell: Remote Code Execution in Microsoft SharePoint (CVE-2025-53770)

On July 19, 2025, a critical remote code execution (RCE) vulnerability (CVE-2025-53770, also referred to as ToolShell) was publicly disclosed, impacting on-premises Microsoft SharePoint Server installations. This vulnerability allows unauthenticated attackers to execute arbitrary code remotely by leveraging insecure deserialization techniques.

Beyond the Patch: SharePoint Exploits and the Hidden Threat of IIS Module Persistence

The cybersecurity landscape witnessed a perfect storm in July 2025 when multiple critical SharePoint vulnerabilities collided with sophisticated IIS module-based persistence techniques, creating a nightmare scenario for enterprise defenders. CVE-2025-53770, CVE-2025-53771, CVE-2025-49704, and CVE-2025-49706 are being actively exploited by sophisticated threat actors, but the real danger extends far beyond the initial exploitation phase.
