Understanding Code Vulnerabilities: Real-World Examples and How They’re Exploited

Hey folks! 👋

I just published a detailed blog post on my personal website where I explore one of the most critical topics in software development — code vulnerabilities.

In this article, I dive into:

  • 🔍 What a code vulnerability really is
  • 💥 How hackers exploit vulnerabilities in real-world applications
  • 🧠 Practical examples like:
    • SQL Injection (a common web app attack vector)
    • Remote Code Execution (RCE) in PyYAML (CVE-2017-18342)
  • ✅ Developer-friendly tips on how to prevent these issues
  • 🔒 Secure coding practices that every developer should know

If you're a backend dev, Pythonista, DevOps engineer, or just passionate about secure software — this one's for you.
