A deep dive into real-world, high-profile CVEs exposes a critical pitfall in AppSec: treating every high-severity vulnerability urgently without understanding its exploitability and business impact. We’ll analyze cases where CVEs are labeled as critical but were originally exploited in different environments, and often found in widely shared kernel code that turned out to be nearly impossible to exploit on cloud containers. By dissecting CVE patches, tracing fix propagation, and attack vectors across platforms like Android, Chrome, and cloud containers, we’ll reveal how misinterpreting CVE context leads to wasted triage cycles, unnecessary fixes, and security teams chasing irrelevant threats.
