Daily threat assessment 16FEB2016 (rules users see notes)

Unread post by mikeshinn »

This report is a daily analysis of all published vulnerabilities in any product, weaknesses in technologies, exploits Internet wide, current internet threats associated with platforms and products our customer use, and if any action is required to protect their assets from these these vulnerabilities, weaknesses and exploits depending on the Atomicorp product they are using.

Please see this forum post for an explanation of the categories used in this report.

CVEs are sometimes created after a vulnerability is published (sometimes far after it has been made public). When CVEs are referenced, it is because a CVE was created today, not because an issue was resolved today, and it is included here for reference.
