This often seems to be the case for the most expert researchers, all a bit quirky. Anyone remember SandboxEscaper? I think they are deceased now but they were dropping Windows 0 days left and right. That person was quite a character. It's hard to describe it without potentially incurring the wrath of someone here but those who know, know.

SandboxEscaper is still alive, but yeah, Eclipse's prolific vuln dropping reminds me of her.

Passed away? What evidence do you have around that statement?

> most expert researchers, all a bit quirky. Is it a surprise that if you think differently you act differently? You have to think differently to become an expert. If you thought the same (as the "average") you'd, by definition, be "average".

SandboxEscaper and Nightmare Eclipse both explicitly deny this, but I'm pretty sure they're the same person. The style is the same, and it appears that SandboxEscaper has previously been fired by MSFT. (they are not dead) https://github.com/BigPolarBear1/The_story https://github.com/BigPolarBear1/The_story SandboxEscaper, who has not really been very active online, started blogging again right before NightmareEclipse showed up. They've been offering to sell Microsoft related bugs. https://weirdquadratic.blogspot.com https://weirdquadratic.blogspot.com OTOH, there's evidence against my theory in the form of prior tweets by the "ChaoticEclipse0" account, which include references to their age and writing in Moroccoan Darija https://x.com/ChaoticEclipse0/status/1332337678470291459 https://x.com/ChaoticEclipse0/status/1332337678470291459 The twitter account was silent between aug 17 2023 and apr 3 2026, so it's not necessarily the same person using it anymore.
