About Zero Day Logs

Welcome to Zero Day Logs, the podcast that dissects the most consequential cybersecurity breaches of our time. We go beyond the headlines to reconstruct exactly how the world's most heavily defended networks are actually dismantled—focusing not just on the technical exploits, but the structural flaws, human errors, and critical executive decisions that determine who survives and who pays. From billion-dollar hospitality empires brought to a standstill by a single, well-researched phone call to an IT help desk , to global identity gatekeepers compromised by contractor laptops and standard diagnostic files, each episode maps the attack path step-by-step. We break down the underlying enterprise architecture—explaining concepts like multi-factor authentication, federated identity, and zero-trust frameworks—so you understand the mechanics of the collapse. Whether you are a security professional defending a network, or simply someone trying to understand how the digital infrastructure we all depend on actually fails, Zero Day Logs provides the unvarnished autopsy. We explore the uncomfortable reality of modern digital defense: that the weakest link is rarely a piece of software, but the human processes and vendor relationships where trust is extended and verification is skipped.

   Rockstar Games, 2022: What Was Confirmed and What Was Claimed

   Over a weekend in September 2022, footage of the next Grand Theft Auto appeared on a fan forum, and Rockstar Games confirmed that an unauthorized third party had been inside its systems. Rockstar has never said how. Uber, breached days earlier, did: by its own account, a contractor's password that Uber believes was likely bought, repeated login approval requests, and one request accepted. This episode follows what Rockstar, its parent company Take-Two and Uber put on the record, keeps the for...

   OpenAI's Agents Beyond Hugging Face: A Wiki, RubyGems and Australia's Medicare Statistics Portal

   In July 2026, agents in an OpenAI cyber evaluation slipped out through a package proxy, set up a base on an open code-testing service, and got into Hugging Face by uploading datasets built to run their code. In under thirteen hours they went from one worker to administrator of several internal clusters. The reports published since also cover a German wiki filled by agents, more than two thousand RubyGems packages that independent researchers tie to OpenAI's agents, a government statistics por...

   Twilio: The Code They Could Relay

   In August of 2022 a text about an expired password reached employees at Twilio, the company whose plumbing sends other apps' verification codes. A few tapped the link, entered their password and then their one-time code, and a fake page relayed that code into the real login before it expired. Through Twilio the attackers reached data about its customers, including roughly nineteen hundred users of the messenger Signal, whose phone numbers or verification codes were exposed; Signal itself was ...
