About Me

Welcome! This blog has articles about reverse engineering, CTF challenges and Nintendo games. If you are interested in such articles, check them out here or follow the Atom feed here.

I have had a special interest for reverse engineering since high school. Since then, I have looked at all kinds of software, from bootloaders to userland applications. This has led to the discovery of various critical vulnerabilities in software, such as authentication bypasses, and memory corruption leading to remote code execution. Some of my public projects can be found on GitHub.

CTFs

Nowadays, I am a challenge author for the European Cyber Security Challenge and its national qualifiers. Some of the challenges that I have created can be found here.

As a player, some of my past achievements include:

2025: 2024: 2023: 2022: Team Superflat is one of my favorite teams.

Pwn2Own

I have successfully demonstrated remote code execution on the following targets at Pwn2Own:

  • (2026) Kenwood DNR1007XR
  • (2025) Philips Hue Bridge

CVEs

The following table includes some of my CVEs.

CVE Product Description
CVE-2026-9063 Axis OS (not yet disclosed)
CVE-2026-9035 IBM Aspera Path traversal allowing arbitrary files to be read
CVE-2026-8180 IBM Aspera Null pointer dereference leading to crash
CVE-2026-8179 IBM Aspera Stack overflow leading to remote code execution
CVE-2026-8175 IBM Aspera Unauthenticated heap overflow leading to authentication bypass and potential RCE
CVE-2026-7876 IBM Aspera Authentication bypass
CVE-2024-6612 Mozilla Firefox CSP violations were leaked to an attacker through DNS prefetching

Note that not all software vendors issue a CVE for vulnerabilities that are reported to them.

Public Reports

Unfortunately I am not allowed to disclose most reports that I have submitted through bug bounty programs. The following table lists the reports for which I have requested disclosure and disclosure has been granted. Click on the date to view the respective report.
