What an interesting comment on the state of corporate relationships; Google actively delayed disclosure of an impactful vulnerability for Apple (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12795332 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12795332).
I wonder why they would not do the same for Microsoft?
- revelation 10y agoThat was a design error, this is presumably a simple bug fix. It's also being actively exploited.
- blinkingled 10y agoGoogle did not claim they were aware of active exploitation of the Apple vulnerability whereas for this Windows one, they claim knowledge of it being exploited actively.
- valas 10y agoWas that Apple vulnerability actively exploited in the wild during the delay?
- jlgaddis 10y agoThey have done the same for Microsoft, extending the 90-day deadline multiple times. Why they didn't in this specific instance is probably because it was being actively exploited in the wild, but that's just a guess.
