The Synopsys Cybersecurity Research Center (CyRC) has identified problems in Zephyr OS related to protecting against internet protocol (IP) address spoofing attacks. Zephyr OS is a popular real-time operating system used in connected, resource-constrained systems like Internet of Things and embedded devices. It is highly customizable and supports multiple architectures, systems-on-a-chip, and boards, making it useful for a wide range of applications.

PHP is a popular server-side scripting language that is widely used for web development. PHP developers can ship and deploy more high-quality software products by leveraging static analysis tools that help mitigate PHP code errors, security vulnerabilities, and other issues that can impact the quality and security of the application if not addressed early in the development cycle.

Zero-day vulnerabilities require an emergency response, disrupting proactive security initiatives and placing additional pressure on security teams. Despite not being the primary focus of their daily responsibilities, zero-days, especially those exploited in the wild, capture significant media attention. This often results in managers, executives, and even board members seeking immediate information about the company’s exposure to the latest threats.

Vulnerability management isn’t just about identifying weaknesses; it’s about effectively addressing them. How do you know if you’re on the right track? Are you effectively addressing vulnerabilities and minimizing risks? To answer these questions, you need more than just a list of potential metrics – you need clarity on what truly matters.

The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) is a pivotal tool in the field of cybersecurity that helps determine the severity of software vulnerabilities. There are few people who haven’t heard of this scoring system, however, there are many who only know it as a scoring model versus an actual vulnerability matrix that offers a consistent framework for communicating the traits and effects of different vulnerabilities.

With springtime just around the corner, there’s a lot to be excited about — warmer weather, longer days, and, most importantly, basketball! In honor of the upcoming March Madness tournament, we’ve put together our own dream team for AppSec. Read on to discover the all-star features in application security this year and how they can help your team get a slam dunk in protecting applications from code to cloud.

Welcome to the Threat Context Monthly blog series where we provide a comprehensive roundup of the most relevant cybersecurity news, and threat information from KrakenLabs, Outpost24’s cyber threat intelligence team.

Nucleus Security is proud to announce its recent achievement of Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP®) authorization at impact level Moderate, making it the go-to choice for government agencies seeking top-tier vulnerability management solutions.

The days where applications were monoliths built of proprietary code, and releases were set quarterly are no more. Instead, they have been replaced by fast paced development sprints, with software created using plenty of code from open-source repositories. The growing complexities of software development and the associated risks have far exceeded the abilities of traditional application security.

Salt Labs researchers identified generative AI ecosystems as a new interesting attack vector. vulnerabilities found during this research on ChatGPT ecosystem could have granted access to accounts of users, including GitHub repositories, including 0-click attacks.
