In this episode, we delve into a hot topic in the bug bounty world: ReDoS (Regular Expression Denial of Service) reports. Inspired by reports submitted by the huntr AI/ML bug bounty community and an insightful blog piece by open source expert, William Woodruff (Engineering Director, Trail of Bits), this conversation explores:

• Are any ReDoS vulnerabilities worth fixing?
• Triaging and the impact of ReDoS reports on software maintainers.
• The challenges of addressing ReDoS vulnerabilities amidst developer fatigue and resource constraints.
• Analyzing the evolving trends and incentives shaping the rise of ReDoS reports in bug bounty programs, and their implications for severity assessment.
• Can LLMs be used to help with code analysis?

Tune in as we dissect the dynamics of ReDoS, offering insights into its implications for the bug hunting community and the evolving landscape of security for AI/ML.
