<p dir="auto"><a href="https://infosec.exchange/@joshbressers" rel= "nofollow">Josh</a> and <a href= "https://infosec.exchange/@kurtseifried" rel="nofollow">Kurt</a> talk about filing bugs for software. There's the old saying that anyone can file bugs and submit patches for open source, but the reality is most people can't. Filing bugs for both closed and open source is nearly impossible in many instances. Even if you want to file a bug for an open source project, there are a lot of hoops before it's something that can be actionable.</p> Show Notes <ul dir="auto"> <li><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37558535" rel= "nofollow">Linux is a nightmare</a></li> <li><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37538426" rel= "nofollow">Lodash just declared issue bankruptcy and closed every issue and open PR</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.linuxjournal.com/content/linux-kernel-reduction-longterm-support" rel="nofollow">Linux Kernel Faces Reduction in Long-Term Support Due to Maintenance Challenges</a></li> <li><a href="https://hackerone.com/reports/2171309" rel= "nofollow">Curl NULL pointer dereference</a></li> </ul>

Episode 395 - Uncertainty, trust, and security

Open Source Security is a media project to help showcase and educate on open source security. Our goal is to give the community a platform educate both developers and users on how open source security works.

There's a lot of good work happening that doesn't get attention because there's no marketing department behind it, they don't have a developer relations team posting on LinkedIn every two hours. Let's focus on those people and teams then learn what they do and how they do it. The goal is to hear from the people doing the work, they know what's up, they have a lot to teach us. We just have to listen.
