Two Critical Wasmtime sandbox-escape CVEs landed on the same day in April 2026 — proof that a wasm sandbox is only as strong as the runtime enforcing it.
XS-Leaks bypass the Same-Origin Policy without running a single line of attacker script — they read state through timing, frame counts, and error events instead.
HackerOne alone has paid hackers over $300M since 2012, but most new researchers earn nothing — duplicates, not skill gaps, are the top reason first reports fail.
Microsoft has reported that roughly 70% of the CVEs it patches each year trace back to memory-safety bugs — here's what buffer overflows, use-after-free, and double-free actually look like.
Equifax lost data on 147 million people to one unpatched Struts CVE in 2017 — and the same class of bug resurfaced in Struts as recently as December 2023.
A single filter in Jinja, xmlattr, could inject arbitrary HTML attributes and slip past autoescaping entirely — fixed in Jinja 3.1.3, tracked as CVE-2024-22195.
One line, `protected $guarded = [];`, can turn a Laravel signup form into an admin-account minting machine — here's how to lock down five real Laravel risk areas.
CWE-89 is a 25-year-old bug class, but Node's template literals make it trivially easy to reintroduce in mysql2, pg, and even Sequelize's raw-query escape hatch.
