People in the web application security space are often more into
"scanners" than people finding memory corruption bugs. I'm not sure what
 the root cause is there - perhaps the set of bug classes that are
useful in web applications includes an abnormally large number of
automatable possibilities? Perhaps it's just a sign of the immaturity of
the field in general.

But web application hacking can be as complex as a CLOUDBURST style
memory corruption bug. For example, Mike Bailey's BH DC 2010
presentation has a 20-step ownage of gmail which is particularly good.

The fun stuff usually happens at the intersection of assumptions.
