The expertise of a real attacker, working for your defense.
Fenrisk is an offensive security firm founded by researchers. We find and exploit vulnerabilities, including previously unknown ones, to faithfully reproduce the attack scenarios that threaten you. Every engagement is carried out manually, tailored to your context, and ends with concrete recommendations.
We think like an attacker, and act like a researcher
We don't stop at known vulnerabilities. We analyze your environment in depth, chain flaws together the way a determined adversary would and, when needed, discover new ones.
Automated pentesting
- ✕ Automated vulnerability scanners
- ✕ Hunting for known public CVEs
- ✕ Vulnerabilities handled in isolation
- ✕ Generic, standardized report
The Fenrisk approach
- Manual analysis and in-depth code review
- Discovery of previously unknown vulnerabilities (0day)
- Full attack chains up to critical objectives
- Contextualized report, reproducible evidence and remediation plan
- Every engagement overseen by a senior consultant
Research is our proof.
Our research never stops. Every vulnerability we publish is one more technique for putting your security to the test.

Open Build Service, one year later: command execution through Mercurial argument injection
In March 2025 we published an analysis of a remote code execution vulnerability in Open Build Service (OBS), tracked as CVE-2024-22033. A little over a year later we went back to the same attack surface and found a second, distinct flaw of the same family. It has now been reported to the openSUSE security team and fixed…

HTTP Request Smuggling in Hiawatha - CVE-2026-51785
As part of our ongoing research into request smuggling, we identified an HTTP Request Smuggling vulnerability (CWE-444) in Hiawatha ≤ 12.1. Hiawatha is an open-source, security-focused web server for Unix-like systems, used to serve websites and host web applications.
MCPwned: a Burp Suite extension for auditing MCP servers
This blog post quickly outlines the MCP protocol before presenting a Burp Suite extension developed by Fenrisk that enables pentesters to effectively test MCP servers.
Remote code execution in CentOS Web Panel - CVE-2025-70951
As part of our ongoing research into web hosting control panels, we recently published an analysis of Control Web Panel (CWP), a widely used open-source administration panel designed to manage web servers running…

Now on to the report, so you avoid a real compromise
Four ways to improve.
Pentests
Black box or grey box. External, internal or application. We find critical flaws across your attack surface, whatever it may be.
Red Team — adversary simulation
We put you to the test the way an APT (organized cybercriminal group) would: targeted phishing, physical intrusion, network pivoting, exfiltration. Our objective: reach your critical assets without alerting your defense teams.
Source code, configuration and architecture audits
When the black-box approach reaches its limits, we switch to a white-box approach and analyze the code, configuration and architecture of your assets.
Offensive training
We pass our attacker reflexes on to your teams. On-site sessions, 10 people max, real-world cases.

Your first point of contact will guide you. Let's talk about your context, your challenges and the attack scenario most relevant to you.
