Application Security This Week for July 12

Big news this week was the F5 zero day, of course, but on the application side you should review the code for the exploit, which is public.  I am not gonna link it here but y'all can google.  DO NOT run this on your corporate machines, use your test box and a VM, and just look.  Here is a link to the CVE:

Very nice collection of testing scripts - well worth the clone and the hour it takes to learn to use them. I'm integrating them into my test scenarios.
