🐝 Hive Five 103 – 2022 CVE data review and bypass firewalls with of-CORs

Hive Five

By securibee 🐝

Hi friends,

Greetings from the hive!

I hope you had a great first week of 2023.

If you’ve been following my Tweets, you know that I’ve been working on my first Ghost site. I enjoy the project and love learning new things and designing websites.

Taking on this new project and working with an unknown platform is further reinforced by something I read a couple of weeks ago, to make success controllable.

Couple this with focusing on what you can control, and you win, even if it fails, as you acquire new skills and make new relationships.

Let’s take this week by swarm!
