IEEE/ISO are working on a draft document about Python vulunerabilities: http://grouper.ieee.org/groups/plv/DocLog/300-399/360-thru-379/22-WG23-N-037... (in the context of a larger effort to classify vulnerabilities in all languages: ISO/IEC TR 24772:2010, available from ISO at no cost at: http://standards.iso.org/ittf/PubliclyAvailableStandards/index.html (its link is near the bottom of the web page).
Will this document have a broad use, such that we should make sure it is accurate (to avoid any future confusion)? I skimmed through and found that it covers a lot of ground, not necessarily about vulnerabilities, with some inaccuracies but not a ton that I noticed. If it doesn't matter then no big deal. Just thought I'd bring it up. -eric
The authors are definitely interested in feedback! Best probably to post it to my G+ thread. On Mon, Dec 12, 2011 at 1:44 PM, Eric Snow <ericsnowcurrently@gmail.com> wrote:
