I mean... I'd say expecting a program written for a 32 bit OS to just work on 64 is excessive. And the fix is just to add mildly sane memory limits to the processes, which is an OS level task, thus, not necessarily a bug.
Not that the whole thing was very well handled.
- troutwine 3y agoI would argue that the fix is for the software to refuse to function if it can detect that it's in an environment where it won't function safely, to fail-closed rather than fail-open.
- literalAardvark 3y agoFair enough, that's a good idea.
