Remediating vulnerabilities efficiently is the cornerstone of a great vulnerability management program. Prioritizing becomes paramount as resources are often limited. Sometimes teams might pinpoint specific vulnerability types that are particularly risky for their attack surfaces, such as a misconfigured Amazon S3 bucket or even a new XSS vulnerability. Users can now filter the /Vulnerabilities view by title, such as a specific type of XSS or even the CVE name.

On Wednesday, May 4, 2022, F5 disclosed a critical-severity vulnerability impacting the iControl REST authentication of BIG-IP systems being tracked as CVE-2022-1388. If successfully exploited, the vulnerability could lead to Authentication Bypass, which could allow a threat actor to execute arbitrary system commands, perform file actions, and disable services on BIG-IP. BIG-IQ Centralized Management, F5OS-A, F5OS-C, and Traffic SDC are not impacted by CVE-2022-1388.

Snyk Code is turning one! We’ve hit so many milestones in the last 12 months, and today we invite you to look back, celebrate, and peer into the future of code security with us.

In recent times as the field of information is on the rise a new term ‘Ethical Hacking’ has emerged and opened many different avenues for IT and cyber security professionals. Now more and more people are getting familiar with the field of information security and are getting interested in learning about hacking skills.

Many companies look to CISOs or compliance teams to manage security throughout software development. But this practice usually keeps security considerations separate from developers. CISOs can assign security tasks to developers, but if developers aren’t thinking about security regularly, those tasks may be overlooked.

Have you ever wondered what vulnerabilities are exploited the most by threat actors? The answers you have been eagerly waiting for could be found inside a joint Cybersecurity Advisory (CSA) coauthored by the cybersecurity authorities of the United States (CISA), Australia (ACSC), Canada (CCCS), New Zealand (NZ NCSC), and the United Kingdom (NCSC-UK), plus the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

The Center for Internet Security (CIS) provides Critical Security Controls to help organizations improve cybersecurity. Control 7 addresses continuous vulnerability management (this topic was previously covered under CIS Control 3). Continuous vulnerability management is the process of identifying, prioritizing, documenting and remediating weak points in an IT environment.

When Algolia’s security program manager Regina Bluman ran a Twitter poll to see how many people within the security industry understood the concept of EASM, she didn’t expect that the term is far from being on an IT security team’s radar. Moreover, most were not even aware of it.
