What is CVSS? A Complete Guide to Vulnerability Scoring

The Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) remains the bedrock of risk communication for many mid-market organizations. Assigning numerical values to vulnerabilities enables a unified dialogue among security researchers, vendors, and IT teams, ensuring everyone speaks the same language when a new threat emerges. However, relying on a static score is no longer enough to defend a modern enterprise.

Mini Shai-Hulud: The Most Sophisticated NPM Supply Chain Attack of 2026

On May 11, 2026, the TanStack namespace was hit by a "Mini Shai-Hulud" supply chain attack.

This video covers the technical details of the OIDC token extraction, the "Dead Man's Switch" that triggers a rm -rf / upon credential revocation, and the mandatory remediation order you must follow to save your data. We also discuss how to harden your workflow using release-age cooldowns and OIDC pinning.
