I don't believe pwn2own is representative of the security landscape in general. Is that the only information you based your comment on?

It's representative of the state of the art in attacking large, mature, modern C++ codebases. > Is that the only information you based your comment on? No, it's due to watching lots of security bugs go by over the last several years. I work in this space, you know.
- jjnoakes 10y ago> It's representative of the state of the art in attacking large, mature, modern C++ codebases. I would say it is representative of attacking client side desktop browser software and plugins. That seems quite a bit less representative of all C and C++ software, most notably excluding server-side software. > I work in this space, you know. That's why I was hoping for something more than "trust me" as a citation.
