The company routinely tests its software updates before pushing them out to customers, CrowdStrike said in the report. But on July 19, a bug in CrowdStrike’s cloud-based testing system — specifically, the part that runs validation checks on new updates prior to release — ended up allowing the software to be pushed out “despite containing problematic content data.”
Oh yes! They have a quite popular sub where people actively hate Taylor Swift. The sub's mods remove your comments and threaten to ban you if you ask: "Guys, are you okay? Is this how you want to live your life?" I don't care about her much, but this is so bizarre. Absolute madness.
That's why you should cover them. If they don't have any visual references to the horizon, their vestibular system will trick them into thinking they are upside down.
You’re speculating that it was something easy to test for by a third party.
Based on the data that I have, which is of course very limited! I didn't know about the recent news regarding the null bytes, thank you for sharing this info.
You don't need to prove that no input can crash the code. "Exhaustive testing is not possible" is one of the core testing principles, ISTQB teaches that. As far as we know, the input was a file filled with zeroes, and not some subtle configuration or instruction. That can definitely be expected, tested, and handled.
A configuration file shouldn't crash the kernel. I don't understand how this solution could pass the certification. I don't know the criteria of course, but on the surface it sounds like Crowdstrike created a workaround, and Microsoft either missed or allowed it.
And where will users go? There are no alternatives. Other platforms don't have as much content, require you to pay, or both.
