Simple Steps for Attack Surface Reduction

Story teaser text: Cybersecurity leaders face mounting pressure to stop attacks before they start, and the best defense may come down to the settings you choose on day one. In this piece, Yuriy Tsibere explores how default policies like deny-by-default, MFA enforcement, and application Ringfencing ™ can eliminate entire categories of risk. From disabling Office macros to blocking outbound server

GHSA-x6gv-2rvh-qmp6: m00nl1ght-dev/steam-workshop-deploy: Exposure of Version-Control Repository to an Unauthorized Control Sphere and Insufficiently Protected Credentials

## Summary The `steam-workshop-deploy` github action does not exclude the `.git` directory when packaging content for deployment and provides no built-in way to do so. If a `.git` folder exists in the target directory (e.g., due to a local Git repo, custom project structure, or via the `actions/checkout` workflow), it is silently included in the output package. This results in leakage of sensitive repository metadata and potentially credentials, including github personal access tokens (PATs) embedded in `.git/config`. Many game modding projects require packaging from the project root as the game expects certain files (assets, configuration, metadata) to be present at specific root-level paths. Consequently, the `.git` directory often exists alongside these required files and gets packaged unintentionally, especially when using `actions/checkout`. While github hosted runners automatically revoke ephemeral credentials at the end of each job, the severity of this issue increases dramat...

GHSA-c9rc-mg46-23w3: Keras vulnerable to CVE-2025-1550 bypass via reuse of internal functionality

### Summary It is possible to bypass the mitigation introduced in response to [CVE-2025-1550](https://github.com/keras-team/keras/security/advisories/GHSA-48g7-3x6r-xfhp), when an untrusted Keras v3 model is loaded, even when “safe_mode” is enabled, by crafting malicious arguments to built-in Keras modules. The vulnerability is exploitable on the default configuration and does not depend on user input (just requires an untrusted model to be loaded). ### Impact | Type | Vector |Impact| | -------- | ------- | ------- | |Unsafe deserialization |Client-Side (when loading untrusted model)|Arbitrary file overwrite. Can lead to Arbitrary code execution in many cases.| ### Details Keras’ [safe_mode](https://www.tensorflow.org/api_docs/python/tf/keras/models/load_model) flag is designed to disallow unsafe lambda deserialization - specifically by rejecting any arbitrary embedded Python code, marked by the “__lambda__” class name. https://github.com/keras-team/keras/blob/v3.8.0/keras/sr...
