Welcome to another posting where we catch up on Security Now episodes. I figure sharing is OK, since I do listen to the podcast anyway.
This is the notice for program 897.
Title: Memory-Safe Languages
This week we have another event-filled Patch Tuesday retrospective. We look at a newly published horrifying automated host attack framework which script kiddies are sure to jump on. We have a welcome new feature for GitHub, crucial vulnerabilities in the LiteSpeed web server, a spiritual successor to TrueCrypt and VeraCrypt for Linux, Australia’s announcement of their intention to proactively attack the attackers, a controversial new feature in iOS 16.1.1, a couple more decentralized finance catastrophes, some miscellany and listener feedback. Then we’ll finish by looking at a just-published advisory from U.S.’s National Security Agency, our NSA, promoting the use of memory-safe languages.
