A6:2021 | Vulnerable and Outdated Components (10) | Cycubix Docs

Architecture Information

What’s important?

  • Is my component old or is it stable.

  • Is my component unpopular.

  • Was my lack of upgrade a deliberate choice or a lack of knowledge.

Summary

  • It’s really difficult to keep components up to date.

For the components analyzed in 25,000 applications it was found that:

  • 8% of 2 year old components did not have a newer version.

  • 23% of 11 year old components did not have a newer version.

  • Older components make up the majority of the risk.
