@swelljoe@mas.to @icing@chaos.social eh… either way, it used to be every time a new developer looked at a corner of a code base that hasn't been touched in 10, 20, 30 years we get, at the very least a bug fix a refactoring and at least one new person who's now familiar with that code… ⬅️ and the loss of this is perhaps the most frustrating part

@swelljoe@mas.to I hope so. But among the many reports are still valid vulnerabilities. It's just that you get all the maybe-a-vuln-when-all-planets-align-and-a-malicious-server-does-things-and-the-application-is-really-weird things.

@swelljoe@mas.to @icing@chaos.social Judging how most FOSS utilized cryptography until the mid 2010s? I would bet on a few really bad Shellshock-esque exploits. But not many.
