Google wants researchers, vendors to stop making attacks easy Apple emits emergency iOS security updates while warning holes may have been exploited in wild by hackers
Enigma To limit the impact of zero-day vulnerabilities, Google security researcher Maddie Stone would like those developing software fixes to stop delivering shoddy patches. In a presentation at USENIX's Enigma 2021 virtual conference on Tuesday, Stone offered an overview of the zero-day exploits detected in 2020. A zero-day, she explained for attendees outside the infosec community, refers to an exploit targeting a previously unidentified vulnerability. Zero-day flaws are a problem because they...

Newer and more secure web browsers with automatic updates simply do not allow known vulnerabilities to be exploited. It was very different back in the heyday of Adobe Flash because it’s just a plugin for a web browser, meaning that even if the user has an up-to-date browser, there’s a non-zero chance that Adobe Flash may still be vulnerable to 1-day exploits. Now tha...
