Slava Moskvin drinks radler while walking us through null pointer dereferencingWhat happens when your code points to nothing and then tries to use it? This week, we crack open a Radler with Slava Muskin and crash into the world of null pointer dereference vulnerabilities. From industrial switches to the Linux kernel’s SMB stack, Slava shares how a single uninitialized pointer can bring down entire systems. We talk root causes, real-world impact, and how even unprivileged, unauthenticated users can trigger total denial of service with no fancy RCE needed.
