Balancing Hype with Practicality in Vulnerability Assessments
Amid the hype about exploit reachability of code, a more practical approach is needed to address vulnerabilities. While the hype may reduce some vulnerabilities, it also leads to numerous false negatives. The key question is whether to focus on reducing vulnerabilities or risk missing potential threats. By adopting a unique approach that falls between extremes, a more contextual and confident assessment of the package being used is achieved. This approach leverages a well-known capability from the performance world and adapts it into a security concept, offering similar benefits in vulnerability assessments.
