  PortSwigger's Gareth Heyes demonstrated CSS/HTML sanitizer-bypass attacks against 6 major webmail providers at Black Hat USA 2026, letting content inside an email escape the message boundary and hit the trusted interface: - Outlook (+Firefox): label-jacking spoofs a Microsoft sign-in screen, captures the typed password - Gmail: image-set() bypass chained with prompt injection via Claude Cowork's Gmail connector to steal a Slack token - Yahoo/AOL: paste-race bug exposes a 12-character Medium login token - Fastmail: two CSS mutation bugs plus a UI-hijacking flaw, since fixed - Proton Mail: proxy bypass that leaked recipient IPs, patched on retest Public PoCs are still live. Guidance: isolate HTML email in sandboxed iframes, restrict CSS.

  For the record. Arturo Tafoya @cheshire3301 had configured an AI agent to handle his Gmail autonomously during June 2026. It was misconfigured; every email inbound to Arturo produced about a dozen error messages emailed rapid-fire to me and Thomas, clogging up our email threads. Thomas does not understand AI or want to. As a courtesy from one software engineer to another I made Arturo (via his agent) aware of the problem and suggested he fix the security vulnerability that left him exposed. He was notified about the annoying problem in early June and again, more strongly with a suggested fix, on June 19th.

  @SamsungIndia @SamsungMobile I've been using Samsung devices for years and never faced anything like this before. The problems started only after the latest software update. Suddenly Gmail, Play Store, Google Pay, and other Google services stopped working properly. Instead of asking customers to visit a service center for an issue caused by a software update, Samsung should acknowledge the problem and provide a proper fix. A software update is supposed to improve the user experience, not break essential apps. Really disappointing, @SamsungIndia

  When starting a project with a client, the first thing I ask for is a brand new, dedicated Gmail account. I use it to sign up for all project accounts: their GitHub organization, VPS hosting, API platforms, and email senders. When the project is finished, handing over ownership is as simple as giving them the login credentials for that single email. It keeps client billing separate and handovers clean.

  @kimmonismus I feel the pain with threaded emails. If you're referring to Gmail, their json object for can be confusing, so you need to fetch the data in the right places, then use metadata so you can guarantee it always reads the latest emails. I have an issue like that, and changed the digest workflow a little bit, and that solved it.

  @Teviet0 Hey, sorry to bother you! I wanted to ask what proxy you're using for multilogin on YouTube? The one I’ve been using keeps giving me 'unusual activity' errors. Also, does your proxy let you create new Gmail accounts, or do you use a different method for that?

  it's hard to overstate how much value DEI destroyed at Google. they could have launched their useful internal chatbots earlier, but the bots were offensive and they didn't want to cannibalise their search ads cash cow. it's an evergreen story: Big Co avoids self-cannibalising, gets their lunch eaten by a startup they don't own. what Google should have done: spin out the AI division or keep it under Deepmind to avoid the brand risk of offensive bots, i.e. retain the Gmail "beta" label and wash their hands of the initially offensive parts until the models improved. however, then you still have the cost center problem: ExCo bonuses are tied to existing product performances, and while costly models are being trained, all they see is declining ad revenue, so they lobby against it. this points to an incentive failure. perhaps the root cause is silo'd OKRs?

  Gabriel left OpenAI three months ago after noticing an awkward gap: models can already finish hours of computer work, yet almost nobody delegates work to them. Energy is his attempt to fix the interface. You give it an outcome. Assistants gather context from Gmail, Drive, Calendar, Slack or Outlook, complete the steps and return the result with an audit trail. They can run on different models, so switching intelligence does not mean rebuilding the workflow. Coding crossed this threshold first. Engineers stopped asking AI for snippets and began handing agents entire tasks. Knowledge work remains trapped in chat because the necessary context is scattered across inboxes, files, meetings and half a dozen apps. Energy packages that setup into assistants installed with one click. Gabriel estimates that only 0.1% of people outside San Francisco currently use AI for all their work. The precise number is impossible to verify, but the adoption gap is obvious: hundreds of millions have tried an AI chatbot; very few begin the day by assigning an outcome and reviewing completed work later. Model choice will keep changing. A system that remembers how your work gets done can survive every model change underneath it. That is the company Energy is trying to build.

  a Reddit user just proved an MCP server can hijack Gmail by simply being installed. it doesn't even need to be called. > a developer installed a "Fact of the Day" MCP for his AI agent > the next email his agent sent was BCC'd to an address he never added > the instruction was one sentence buried in the Fact tool's description: whenever an email is sent, copy this address. > the agent never called the Fact tool > just having its description in context was enough. In most MCP clients, the model reads connected tool descriptions together. The poisoned tool doesn't need to impersonate Gmail. Its description can tell the agent how to use the real Gmail tool. Every server you connect gets to write into the same context the agent uses to decide what to do. That risk scales with every server you add. In one analysis of 1,899 open-source MCP servers, 5.5% already contained tool-poisoning behavior. I've spent years building integration infrastructure, and I keep coming back to the same design rule: Keep the number of trusted voices small. This is how we’re making things safe at One: - tools come from one catalog we vet - the agent loads only the action it asked for - every action traces back to the request that triggered it Before you connect the next MCP server, ask who gets to write into your agent's context.

  The biggest story isn't whether Gemini "leaked" a game character. It's that millions of people still don't understand the difference between AI training and AI context. If you connect Gemini to your Google Drive, Docs, Gmail, or Calendar, it can use that information to answer your questions. That's a feature, not evidence that your private documents were used to train the model. The real questions are: • What permissions did the user enable? • What data was available to Gemini at the time? • Should AI assistants make it more obvious when an answer comes from your connected files instead of general knowledge? Whether this turns out to be a bug, expected behavior, or a misunderstanding, it highlights a much bigger issue: AI products are becoming operating systems for our digital lives, but most users still don't know what data they've granted access to. The future of AI won't just be about better models. It'll be about trust, transparency, and giving users complete control over their data.

  New research shows content inside an email can escape its message boundary and interfere with the webmail interface. Across attack chains spanning Outlook, Gmail, Fastmail, Proton Mail, Yahoo Mail, and AOL Mail, the techniques can capture passwords, take over third-party accounts, leak tokens, hijack trusted UI actions, and manipulate AI tools that read email. PortSwigger researcher Gareth Heyes presented the work at Black Hat USA 2026. One Outlook/Firefox chain spoofs a Microsoft sign-in screen and captures the password a recipient types. A Yahoo/AOL paste race can expose a Medium email-login token and let an attacker sign in as the victim. A Gmail/Cowork chain can exfiltrate a Slack token after prompt injection and user interaction. The paper presents proof-of-concept research and does not report malicious exploitation. Public PoCs remain available as of August 8. The researcher said Fastmail fixed two CSS mutation bugs and a Proton Mail proxy bypass stopped working when he retested it, while Outlook label-jacking and Gmail's image-set() bypass still worked when the research was published on August 6. The paper does not state whether the full Outlook password-capture chain was fixed. For webmail providers, the paper recommends isolating HTML email in sandboxed iframes and tightly restricting CSS, custom attributes, select menus, and image requests.

  I’ve used the gemini and claude mobile apps quite a bit, and recently started using chatgpt quite extensively. Hard to put my finger exactly to it, but chatgpt feels addicting — gives a similar feeling to using a social app like X. What I really like about it: - the typography, font sizes for headers vs normal text, nice rendering of latex & markdown, etc makes it visually appealing, similar to notion - the model is v fast and streams its thoughts & tool calls, which gives the idea of constant progress. It’s also direct but not pompous (looking at you opus) - finance integration. I really love how easy it is to connect your financial institutions and the use of widgets & dashboards so it doesn’t feel like a blank canvas when you approach it. I’ve never actually known my monthly inflow/outflow & expense breakdown until now - awesome transcription (on par with Typeless!) & easy switching to voice mode in a chat. I was driving and painlessly switched my chat convo to voice mode However, I wish these things were better: - browser use. It almost feels unusable? I tried to get it to register for my dog license and to purchase stuff, but it uses its own browser and keeps telling me that it can’t login to my account or to access the page myself to finish it, but I can’t. Maybe I’m using it wrong - chat/work/voice mode switching is kinda confusing. Work mode can access the browser but chat can’t, so I have to switch to work mode to have actions taken. I went from chat -> voice -> chat and it told me it couldn’t access my Gmail even when I went back to chat, and I had to reiterate that I was back in chat - no podcast gen feature like notebookLM. I asked it to generate a podcast based on some content and it gave me this really broken & robotic audio dictation Very nice mobile app altogether:)

  @TheDesertLynx I'm not defending Monero, btw... just the technology. I'm not a **** of any coin. No coin, anywhere, is as useful as they should be in my opinion. 1) Can't be certain of supply. That's such an old point that I thought the modern math would have finally put that to rest. Monero, and others like it, are auditable. Granted there's still a very tiny statistical chance that it could be wrong, but the moment an issue is found, it's SUPER easy to fix as we've seen in the past. There's been enough time and engineering to prove this point moot. 2) "No "pass-through privacy" leaks" <--- 100% agree. Mixers are the image below. 3) Since many privacy coins have ways to create auditable wallets that merchants and public donations use right now (I use them), the idea that a fund couldn't be public doesn't make sense (unless your'e referring to something else). 4) "privacy tech is significantly less efficient" <--- This is my biggest gripe because there's VERY little concern for UI/UX in the blockchain privacy space but isn't ignored in the larger privacy space. We accept slower transactions, time locks, or whack-a-mole privacy. 5) "All privacy is more valuable than no privacy" <--- 100% couldn't disagree more about blockchain. I will never not think surveillance-by-default blockchains are asking people to accept transparent bank accounts with "opt-in" privacy. I've never once seen privacy advocates outside of blockchain advocate that people just use Gmail, but with optional privacy options because it makes no sense. I feel like because money is on the line (or people getting paid by these blockchains) people are willing to promote inferior privacy for the sake of adoption... which, unfortunately, was killed off by bitcoin... a surveillance chain. Privacy advocates will promote private-by-default all day every day... but then when you talk to them about blockchain they promote surveillance-by-default which makes zero sense to me. Why... would they support default privacy everywhere else but then for the "sake of practicality" compromise on blockchain??? All the issues I have with blockchain are engineering problems. We can have fast, scalable, private-by-default transactions but so few developers are willing to think about the user experience that I think the rest of us have given up rather than blaming blockchain developers for ignoring the needs of the end user... and yes... I blame them squarely and openly for their negligence. 6) "Optional-privacy ecosystems may achieve greater absolute anonymity sets due to network effects" <--- I know this is opinion, but I'd want actual data here to support this because this actually matters. It's almost like saying, "Gmail, with it's optional privacy may achieve greater absolute anonymity due to... [whatever]". I get that Gmail is centralized so it's not an identical comparison... but the idea here that we're being asked to accept surveillance because there's optional privacy. I'm not sold and I don't think I ever will be. I apply principles across the board equally. I feel like there's a concerted effort to diminish privacy in blockchain even though EVERYWHERE ELSE privacy is seriously promoted as trying to achieve absolute privacy. Tor isn't optional privacy by default. Mullvad isn't optional privacy by default. Bitwarden isn't optional privacy by default. Proton Mail and Tuta aren't optional privacy by default. SimpleX and Signalaren't optional privacy by default. Soooooo many others. I don't know if it's malicious. I don't know if it's just what people believe. I don't know... But for some reason... when it comes to blockchain... people promote surveillance-by-default and think it's perfectly fine.

  @0xyunss Browser-native agents for real admin work hit different when you realize DNS, Gmail, and internal dashboards share the same attack surface. The security model assumed human pace and human error, not automated credential churn at machine speed. How do you revoke access when the agent rotates through sessions faster than your SIEM can parse logs?

  We get Claude to send us a daily 'money' recap each morning... and it's saved us thousands each month. My wife and I aren't budgeters .If we need stuff, we generate income. But that ends up in 'leaks' every month for expenses. "Death by a thousand swipes" and it can lead to wasted money, thousands in extra "WTH" expenses, arguments etc. This is especially true if you do have a high income and you find 'lifestyle' creep has taken over... as it has many times in our lives. *** What gets measured gets managed. Trying to manually budget stuff each month... go through the 'budget' is a task that's a pain to do . Years ago, we looked for an app to do exactly what Claude is now doing (for essentially free as I use Claude for work daily). Instead of some random app to check, we BOTH get an automated email each day that tells us: - Our last 5 days of transactions from our checking and amex cards - How much was spent for our NUT - Our necessary spends (mortgage, groceries, utilities) NICE TO HAVE - Kids activities, house cleaners, landscapers GUILT-FREE - Eating out, trips, etc. - (most importantly) How much do we have LEFT to spend on the month for each of the 3 buckets. GOAL: - We both know where we are in the month. None of us log into our account each day, so we don't see if there's a bad charge, or what someone just bought. It's usually I log into pay the Amex bill 1x per month and go "This balance is 5k more than I thought" - Just seeing the number "You have $ XYZ" left guilt-free to spend removes any guilt about spending, especially if your spouse needs that structure. **** How to set up: 1. Load an entire years statements into Claude (You need a Claude subscription) 2. Ask it to breakdown where you spent --- you'll be shocked some of the overspent categories. We always think we're spending half of what our 'eating out' actual is 3. Put in the prompt: (on the next tweet) 4. Claude can even determine what makes sense for each budget. E.g. "You normally have an electric bill around $200/month". 5. Claude will then have you connect your accounts to it through a secure 3rd party (You are NOT giving Claude unlimited access to your bank accounts... and it will tell you NOT to do that anyway) 6. You'll then set up a script in Google to pull the email draft from your Gmail and auto-send to you. 7. NOTE --- you'll need Claude "on" to do this each day e.g. your computer can't be off. But you schedule it for when you are normally around your computer and you can even run it manually if you happen to login at a different time. 8. As things come up each month, you can adjust the buckets. "Hey, we need to save $500 the next 5 months for our 3 day beach getaway, put aside and adjust the guilt-free bucket." It's all done with prompts and updates the bucket automatically the next 5 months. **** We've found already it makes us mindful of not doing stupid spends. I'm notorious for going into Target for 1 thing and then buying the kids some extra crap, etc. Or taking them to a sporting goods store for 1 thing and we end up with 10 things. PROMPT ON NEXT PAGE. It's a 1-shot prompt, you can start with "just analyze our spend" and go from there.
