More “let’s hate on Microsoft because it’s trendy” bandwagoneers. I guess the 25 year old vulnerability in bash was not a bad thing, eh? Or scp’s 35 year old vuln did not affect anyone? Come on, people. Stop acting like Microsoft is the only vendor worth criticizing
- CivBase 7y agoThat's not what I took from the article at all. Here are the two points I got: 1. Microsoft is releasing a patch for Windows XP, which is odd because they no longer support it. This could indicate that a very serious vulnerability is about to be revealed - one which likely goes beyond XP itself. 2. There are still far too many computers running Windows XP. Doing so is a dangerous practice - especially if the device is networked - and keeps getting harder to justify.
