Why vulnerabilities are like buses

There’s an old saying that you wait ages for a bus, and then several come at once.

A growing trend is the mass exploitation of a critical vulnerability in a product, followed shortly after by further critical vulnerabilities (and often ‘in-the-wild’ exploitation) in the same product. Organisations will have worked hard to push out-of-band patches for the initial vulnerability, only to have to repeat the process later when new vulnerabilities appear.

In this blog, we’ll explore the factors driving this, and explain how organisations can better protect the software they’ve just patched from exploitation of future vulnerabilities.
