Had a lot of fun (co) running & organizing this CTF.
People were suprisingly effective in solving my three CodeQL challenges in semi intended ways :D
If you liked it, feel free to ask me questions, DMs open.
Also checkout the bounties 💸GitHub is offering: securitylab.github.com/bounties/

I wrote 3 web challenges for SekaiCTF 2022 last weekend!
Some very cool techniques were used! In one chall, you had to leak requests through the connection pool and another had you break document.cookie to cause an error.

📖 enjoy another article reiterating the need to destigmatize having a CVE assigned to a vul in your open source project that we first published on earlier this year 😉 CVEs aren't bad or inherently severe, and help ensure the right info gets to ALL of YOUR users! 🙌

True or false? CVEs are bad for the reputation of the software and its vendor or maintainer.
