https://bit.ly/3SAO3mn - ๐ Aqua Nautilus researchers uncovered flaws in the vulnerability disclosure process for open-source projects. Their study showed how vulnerabilities could be harvested before being patched, increasing the risk of exploitation. The research involved analyzing GitHub commits, pull requests, and issues, along with data from the National Vulnerabilities Database (NVD). This work highlights the need for standardized responsible disclosure processes in open-source communities. #OpenSourceSecurity #VulnerabilityDisclosure #CybersecurityResearch ๐ The vulnerability disclosure process is more complex than the binary distinction of '0-day' and '1-day'. Aqua Nautilus introduces two more stages: 'Half-Day' (where vulnerability information is publicly exposed but not officially released) and '0.75-Day' (an official patch is available, but no CVE or CPE is assigned). These stages present significant risks as attackers can exploit vulnerabilities during these windows. #CybersecurityAwareness #VulnerabilityManagement #InfoSec ๐ Case studies, including the analysis of the Log4Shell (CVE-2021-44228) disclosure process, revealed inherent discrepancies in reporting. The 'Half-Day' and '0.75-Day' windows allowed attackers to potentially exploit vulnerabilities before the general public was alerted and scanning tools could detect the issues. #Log4Shell #CyberAttackPrevention #SecurityAnalysis ๐ Aqua Nautilus developed methods to identify vulnerabilities at scale using GitHub and NVD. Their approach involved searching for trigger words in GitHub projects and monitoring NVD for early exposure of CVEs. These methods help in detecting security issues before they become widely known. #GitHubSecurity #NVDAnalysis #CyberThreatIntelligence ๐ก๏ธ To mitigate the risks of early vulnerability exposure, the researchers suggest responsible disclosure practices, proactive scanning of open-source commits/issues/PRs, and implementing runtime protection strategies. These measures aim to minimize the gap between vulnerability discovery and patch release, reducing the opportunity window for attackers.
