About

The November SecTalks Gold Coast meetup. Paul McCarty presents Brotlipocalypse: The Bug Hiding in Plain Sight, on a vulnerability in the Brotli compression library and why vendored copies of the code slip past dependency scanners and SBOMs. Runs 6:00pm to 8:00pm. Free to attend.

About the Organiser

SecTalks

SecTalks is a community-run security meetup with chapters in Australian cities including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra and Hobart. Each chapter meets roughly monthly for a talk or two followed by a hands-on capture-the-flag challenge, with the winner presenting the solution at the next session. Meetups are free, hosted at member companies' offices, and pitched at everyone from students to senior practitioners. Because chapters set their own dates on Meetup, each upcoming SecTalks session is listed here individually with its venue and time.
