 Do you have another link?

No, but you may want to have a look at
http://www.palamida.com/taxonomy/term/4 - the
May 3, 2007 article (The False Positives of Vulnerability) and follow
links from there.

Top FOSS security vulnerabilities

2007-12-14 Thread Omer Zak
http://www.linux.com/feature/123171 explains the philosophy and
reasoning of Palamida, which found those vulnerabilities.  I found the
article to be FUD-free.

http://www.palamida.com/node/513 lists the topmost 5 overlooked
vulnerabilities for 2007 according to them.

Of course, in their blog, they do not miss an opportunity to promote
their business (audit of corporate codebase to find uses of Free
Software and overlooked vulnerabilities).

DISCLAIMER:  I am neither affiliated nor customer (satisfied or
otherwise).  I only read some security related Web news items, and
thought it'll be good idea to bring those news items to general
attention.
