+  abstract	= {Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) components are ubiquitous in both proprietary and open source
+		  applications. Each time a vulnerability is disclosed in a FOSS component, a software vendor using this
+		  an application must decide whether to update the FOSS component, patch the application itself, or just
+		  do nothing as the vulnerability is not applicable to the older version of the FOSS component used.
+		  This is particularly challenging for enterprise software vendors that consume thousands of FOSS
+		  components and offer more than a decade of support and security fixes for their applications.
+		  Moreover, customers expect vendors to react quickly on disclosed vulnerabilities---in case of widely
+		  discussed vulnerabilities such as Heartbleed, within hours.\\\\To address this challenge, we propose a
+		  screening test: a novel, automatic method based on thin slicing, for estimating quickly whether a
+		  given vulnerability is present in a consumed FOSS component by looking across its entire repository.
+		  We show that our screening test scales to large open source projects (e.g., Apache Tomcat, Spring
+		  Framework, Jenkins) that are routinely used by large software vendors, scanning thousands of commits
+		  and hundred thousands lines of code in a matter of minutes.\\\\Further, we provide insights on the
+		  empirical probability that, on the above mentioned projects, a potentially vulnerable component might
+		  not actually be vulnerable after all.},
