The Oligo blog post focuses on the concept of "0-0-0-0-day" - a new type of exploit that targets local APIs from the browser. The author explains that in many cases, browsers allow such interactions without adequate protection. This means attackers can use techniques like intercepting local APIs, potentially leading to the exposure of sensitive information or even taking control of the system. The article also provides concrete examples of attacks on local APIs, illustrating how such vulnerabilities can be exploited by hackers. It is important to note that the author calls for increased attention to application security and avoiding scenarios that can be leveraged for attacks. In summary, the article serves as a significant reminder for developers and security teams to update their security practices in light of evolving threats associated with local APIs.
