The findings of the report deliver an in-depth look at the current state of open source security, compliance, licensing, and code quality risks in commercial software with the goal of helping security, legal, risk, and development teams better understand the open source security and license risk landscape. "An increase in the average number of open source components rising 13% in this year's audits further reinforces the importance of implementing a comprehensive SBOM that lists all open source components in your applications their licenses, versions, and patch status. This is a foundational strategy towards understanding and reducing business risk by defending against software supply chain attacks," Schmitt continued.

The reasons for the lack of investment into Third Party Risk Management are the same that we consistently hear - lack of time, lack of money and resources, and it's a business need to work with the vendor. Step 3 - Continuously combine threat exposure findings with the questionnaire exchange #. Security ratings alone don't work.

Attack surface management is a make or break for organizations, but before we get to the usual list of best practices, we need to accept that attack surface management is not limited to the surface. Defining the fundamentals of ASM. ASM falls under the larger umbrella of exposure management, along with vulnerability management and validation management.

Multiple unpatched security flaws have been disclosed in open source and freemium Document Management System offerings from four vendors LogicalDOC, Mayan, ONLYOFFICE, and OpenKM. Cybersecurity firm Rapid7 said the eight vulnerabilities offer a mechanism through which "An attacker can convince a human operator to save a malicious document on the platform and, once the document is indexed and triggered by the user, giving the attacker multiple paths to control the organization." The list of eight cross-site scripting flaws, discovered by Rapid7 researcher Matthew Kienow, is as follows -.
