Classic Vulnerabilities
We keep on thinking we are living in the future, but native exploitation has a rich history, and many times the vulnerabilities and exploitation techniques are decades old.
We'll look at some of these, how they have surfaced in recent years and how prepared we are today, armed with modern tooling, to find and fix "classic" vulnerabilities.
