# Security digest: October 6, 2023

3 critical advisories.

## Take stock

- npm: 1 critical advisory ( fsevents ). Check with npm audit (or: npm ls <package>) .
- Go: 1 critical advisory ( github.com/neuvector/neuvector ). Check with govulncheck ./... .
- RubyGems: 1 critical advisory ( bolt ). Check with bundle audit check --update .
- None of it touches your stack? Then there is nothing to do today. That is a result, not a failure to read carefully.

## Known exploited (CISA KEV)

None.
