Vuln dated 1965

I was digging threw the Open Source Vulnerability Database and decided to sort by date.  That’s when I noticed the OSVB went back to 1965!

Guess I’m just showing how young I am (30 is young?), but I was impressed to see a documented vulnerability that far back.  They had computer back then?

The abacus was vulnerable to data corruption if it was shaken  😉

It was not just a computer, it was a mainframe!

Learn your history, or else you are doomed to repeat it. 🙂

I wonder if anyone learned to spell boobs on an abacus…
