Hot Take:

If CVEs were a currency, we’d all be millionaires by now! It’s a whack-a-mole game out there with vulnerabilities popping up faster than Apple’s new product releases.

Buckle up, folks; it’s a bumpy ride in the land of zeros and ones!

Key Points:

  • Perl and StorageKit vulnerabilities allow apps to modify protected file system parts.
