Four zero-day vulnerabilities + one (zero-day?) in controller software + (at least) two valid stolen certificates for signed drivers -- that, afaics, is pretty hard compared to other worms; definitely not in dick-swinging league.
- InclinedPlane 16y agoIndeed, there is solid evidence that stuxnet is quite unusual compared to other worms and likely was developed using different processes and with greater resources than previous worms. Beyond that pretty much everything else is rampant speculation.
- burningion 16y agoAgreed. The sophistication here is pretty damn impressive. It makes me think of all the possibilities for market manipulation via well placed worms.
