They're quasi related in the context of two open source projects handled bugs very differently. The OpenSSH bug isn't really as serious as it seems, but you still want to patch.</p> <p dir="auto">The node-ip bug is a very different story. The relationship between users and open source developers is one experiencing more strain now than we've ever seen. It's a weird conversation and we don't have good answers. Security in general is a collection of unsolvable problems.</p> Show Notes <ul dir="auto"> <li><a href= "https://www.qualys.com/2024/07/01/cve-2024-6387/regresshion.txt" rel="nofollow">Qualys security advisory</a></li> <li><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40843778" rel= "nofollow">Hacker News Discussion</a></li> <li><a href="https://securitycryptographywhatever.com/" rel= "nofollow">Security Cryptography Whatever</a></li> <li><a href= "https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/dev-rejects-cve-severity-makes-his-github-repo-read-only/" rel="nofollow">Dev rejects CVE severity, makes his GitHub repo read-only</a></li> </ul>

Episode 437 - CocoPods and proper funding for open source

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.
