Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Cloudflare has open-sourced pvcli, a Rust-based diagnostic tool that handles full Oblivious HTTP (OHTTP) requests across relays, gateways, and targets in a single command to eliminate tedious manual binary parsing. Unlike single-protocol alternatives, the utility combines OHTTP, CONNECT proxying, and MASQUE support using a familiar curl-like syntax. This unified approach significantly accelerates incident response and debugging for engineers managing large-scale privacy deployments like Apple's Private Relay and Microsoft's Edge Secure Network VPN.
