(OP) User ID: 76466747  United States10/31/2020 12:54 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to techcrunch.com (secure)] Quoting: nautonier "allows an attacker to escalate their level of user access in Windows... and run malware on the operating system." Project Zero’s technical lead Ben Hawkes said Microsoft plans to issue a patch on November 10. Attackers are not known, their motives are not known, whether or not this has anything to do with the U.S. election (or if the timing is coincidental) is not known. Hmmm... I would bet $$ those are all known. If they are going to tell or not is another story. Well the exploiters know, lol. Or are you suggesting the Google team, Windows, or potentially someone in gov is aware? Gov has hardware backdoors built in that go over the electric lines since the 80's This doesn't answer my question, but yes you're definitely correct in the sense that most hardware is already compromised. Intel inside. |

Extreme outlier would be offline storage. Incontrovertible. |

This exploit is typically used for ransom ware and apparently one patient died few months ago due to these attacks. |

Microsoft has fixed it so everybody has to build their consumer software to be Windows Friendly, etc... Nonsense. Just follow the arch wiki to the letter. An idiot can do it. I use arch BTW. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 72446910 United States10/31/2020 06:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I use Windows 10 for surfing the net and non-critical things such as music production and flight simulator, playing scrabble etc. Quoting: Butch DeFeo It HAS BEEN ACTING WEIRD the last day or two.....one thing it is doing is taking longer to SHUT DOWN when shutting Windows 10 down. Not sure if that has anything to do with this, but there's been this difference I'm detecting. You seem like a bright enough fellow to use Linux. Change is good. |
