On this week’s show Patrick Gray and Adam Boileau discuss the week’s cybersecurity news:

  • Did the SharePoint bug leak out of the Microsoft MAPP program?
  • Expel retracts its FIDO bypass writeup
  • The mess surrounding the women-only dating-safety app Tea gets worse
  • Broadcom customers struggle to get patches for VMWare hypervisor escapes
  • Aeroflot gets hacked by the Cyber Partisans, disrupting flights

This week’s episode is sponsored by Push Security. Satisfied Push customer Daniel Cuthbert from Santander Bank joins on their behalf. He explains how having telemetry about identity from inside the browser is a key pillar for investigating intrusions in the browser-centric future.
