Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An independent researcher’s portfolio of Apple security investigations, technical writeups, and machine-learning experiments.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-01 issue.
For
Apple security researchers and reverse engineers
Worth noticing
The sandbox investigation uses a separate WidgetKit extension as an independent process control and explicitly rules out a cross-process write claim.

Field notes

The page lays out investigation steps rather than presenting only vulnerability headlines: a diff suggests a missing check, a testable hypothesis follows, and an on-device proof of concept is reported to Apple. In the sandbox case, a separate WidgetKit extension serves as a process control, and the writeup distinguishes data returned through a service from writes confined to a local cache. The homepage also links an AI research preprint and code.
