Are you drowning in a sea of vulnerability advisories, wondering why patching one thing doesn't fix everything? Despite a shared origin, a CVE's impact diverges significantly across Linux distributions. Consequently, a fix at the source does not automatically translate to comprehensive protection downstream. Each distribution requires independent patching, leading to a complex web of security advisories stemming from a single flaw.

In this talk, you'll learn how OSV tools can help you navigate this sea of advisories. We'll explore the root causes of advisory proliferation in Linux and demonstrate how OSV.dev aggregates and cross-references vulnerability data at scale to provide a more complete picture. You'll also see how OSV-Scanner accurately identifies vulnerabilities in your Linux systems, considering distribution-specific nuances and offering actionable guidance. By the end of this session, you'll be equipped with the knowledge and tools to patch smarter and secure your Linux infrastructure more effectively.
