Referring to the condition as “prompt injection” is still causing a lot of confusion. It conjures images of SQL Injection, leading developers to misunderstand and security people to think they know how to fix it. I still refer to it as prompt injection but immediately follow that by saying it’s like social engineering but applied to applications instead of humans. I think this better conveys the breadth and potential complexity of the issue without presupposing a specific fix.

There’s the old social engineering saying that “there’s no patch for human stupidity.” Well, in this case, there’s no patch for application stupidity, either. This framing of the problem should also get people thinking about protection in layers rather than a specific individual fix. So, beware of a specific fix for prompt injection, in much of the same way as a single approach to social engineering. It’s security awareness month, and there is no awareness training for your applications. Well, yet anyway, and no, your system prompt doesn’t count😆 #LLM #Security #risk

The October 2023 security updates for Android address 51 vulnerabilities, including two zero-day flaws that were exploited in attacks. One of the exploited issues, CVE-2023-4863, is a heap buffer overflow in the Libwebp library leading to remote code execution. It was reported by Apple and the Citizen Lab group at The University of Toronto and had been used to deliver spyware to iPhones. The second zero-day flaw, CVE-2023-4211, affects the Arm Mali GPU driver and allows improper GPU memory processing operations. Google has not provided specific information on these attacks, but past instances have shown these vulnerabilities being used in exploit chains to deliver commercial spyware.

Another great episode of the #AlgorithmicFutures @algfutures #podcast, this time talking about the #NuclearMindset.

What I learned from this episode is the importance of long-term thinking, understanding the consequences of your planning decisions, and how "undoable" some long-term decisions are. It's a different approach to #risk, and one far removed from the tech-centric "move fast and break things" mindset.

#TeenVogue on private equity, just in case anyone out there had doubts.

"Their priority is increasing cash flow at whatever cost ... For health care, we've seen that mean cutting staff, reducing less profitable services at hospitals — that might be labor and delivery services or pediatric services — or finding other ways to... save money by not investing in building improvements, she says, leaving elevators broken and leaking roofs unfixed"

You may have seen mention of Andrew Boyd’s “I Want a Better Catastrophe Flowchart,” sighed, and scrolled past. But I urge you to indulge. Just open the link, click “Listen to narration,” and sit back and let it take you. It’s a longer, more emotional journey than I expected. 👉 https://flowchart.bettercatastrophe.com/

PDF of the entire flowchart for printing: https://static1.squarespace.com/static/63c77b3009cc676bad59603d/t/63dc85d705bc2c130c573164/1675396569434/Better_Catastrophe-Flowchart.pdf

Does anyone know the status or continuation plans of #CompRisks / #RisksDigest, moderated by #PeterGNeumann?

The topic came up at HN, where the first suggestion was in the past tense. RISKS Digest, begun in August 1985, is still going strong, however, with Volume 33#85, released yesterday:

https://catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/33/85

That said, Peter G. Neumann is now at least 90 years old, and I've seen a few too many projects and initiatives fail for want of a continuity plan.

I don't see any results from toot.cat for the hashtags I'm using here. I'm hoping some other readers might have information.

The new chapter of a cinder of power is uploaded!

synopsis:
The Warfang or the City of dragons will stand no longer defiantly against Cynder's might. However, before Spyro can open the gates and let the army flood into the city, he needs to face off against the only guardian who is left. His old mentor and perhaps the closest of his friends. All this without his elemental powers, all this to prove to the army that he is worthy of being a general. That he can bring victory without their queen's might. Would he be strong enough? Would he be able to please Cynder with his strength?
