Episode description

The OWASP Top 10 dates back to 2003, when appsec was just settling on terms like cross-site scripting and SQL injection. It's a list that everyone knows about and everyone talks about. But is it still the right model for modern appsec awareness? What if we put that attention and effort elsewhere? Maybe we could have secure defaults instead. Or linters and build tools that point out these flaws. We'll talk about top 10 lists, what we like about them, what we don't like, and what we'd like to see replace them. We'll also test our hosts' knowledge of just how many top 10 lists are out there.

New TLDs are already old news, fuzzing eBPF validators, Microsoft sets to kill bug classes, draft RFC to track location trackers, a top ten list with directory traversal on it, conference videos from Real World Crypto and BSidesSF, and an attack tree generator from markdown.
