Talos Vulnerability Discovery Year in Review — 2019
Summary: Cisco Talos' Systems Security Research Team published 228 advisories resulting in 237 CVEs in fiscal year 2019, spanning operating systems, internet-of-things devices, Microsoft Office products, PDF readers and more. That volume works out to almost one vulnerability discovered per working day over the year.
Bottom line: Talos states plainly that bulletproof software does not exist and that one cannot fully trust the devices on the network - a reminder that even vendors with large security teams make mistakes, and many have none.
