VRT Addition - Hardware and Physical Security #408

Closed evildaemond closed 1 month ago

evildaemond commented 7 months ago

Description

The Bugcrowd VRT holds a lot of information regarding Web application and Car hacking related issues, however not a lot regarding physical hardware, which has become a popular topic for our incoming bashes and clients. We've identified a few holes within the existing VRT to fill in, and we're looking for responses prior to merging it into the primary repo.

Notes

Please note, we have not assigned priorities as of yet for these issues, however these will be added to this issue soon.

Adding VRT Priorities below, please note, most are marked as Varies, as they are heavily context dependent for the target, the environmental context, and the access requirements.

OMG wow this is a lot of information for me to understand out once if there is any way I can be contacted virtually or by phone to help me understand all of this because I am a person with disabilities and wow this is a lot of information and I am having a hard time understanding it all please contact me during the day at this time I am falling asleep due to vacation at 1:30 in the morning
