|  Five Most Overlooked Open Source Vulnerabilities A recent study by a software risk management company says that it has identified the five most overlooked vulnerabilities by users in their open source code. The Palamida list reflects known vulnerabilities that have been aired and fixed by their parent projects but are still encountered in the user base, such as businesses and government agencies. The projects named are not frequent offenders when it comes to security vulnerabilities, but their code is so widely used that unpatched vulnerabilities show up in Palamida’s enterprise and nonprofit agency software scans. In all cases, a patch is available to fix the vulnerability. |
