TARmageddon with Alex Zenla

from Open Source Security

Josh discusses the TARmageddon vulnerability with Alex Zenla, CTO of Edera. In this episode, we explore the discovery of the TARmageddon vulnerability. It's especially interesting because it's Rust, but also involves multiple end of life crates. Alex shares the story of how Edera managed to figure all this out (it was not simple). Hard problems are still hard, but there's a lot of lessons in this one. The show notes and blog post for this episode can be found at https://opensourcesecurity.io/2025/2025-12-tarmageddon-alex/
