Listened to Open Source Security: The curl summer of Bliss with Daniel and Stefan
Post details
Josh chats with Daniel and Stefan from curl about their summer of bliss. Curl stopped taking vulnerability reports for a month and nothing much happened really. Daniel and Stefan have a really pragmatic view of all the new LLM powered vulnerability detection tools. The cost of finding a vulnerability has dropped dramatically, but the cost of fixing those bugs hasn't changed. Taking some time off is important for anyone in the middle of these reports. Daniel and Stefan have some great experience and ideas on how to make this all happen. It's great advice for anyone working on software, not just open source.

Listened to Open Source Security: CVEs vs Advisories with Paul Asadoorian
Post details
Josh chats with Paul Asadoorian about a tool he wrote called fettle and a recent report Paul published on CVEs. Fettle is a tool to help update and manage Linux systems. The big sell on this one is checking if your firmware is out of date. We then talk about a report Paul created that doesn't obsess over CVEs, but rather the vendor updates. It makes more sense to worry about advisories as those are actionable, where CVEs often are not. It's a great chat and Paul is a legend in the industry.
