- sofixa 2y agoThis is not a patch per se, it was Crowdstrike updating their virus definition or whatever it's called internal database. Such things are usually enabled by default to auto-update, because otherwise you lose a big part of the interest (if there's any) of running an antivirus.
- fredoralive 2y agoSurely their should be at least some staging on update files as well, to avoid the "oops, we accidentally blacklisted explorer.exe" type things (or, indeed, this)?
- saberdancer 2y agoCompanies have staging and test process but CS bypassed it and deployed to prod.
- minetest2048 2y agoIf I understand the thread correctly, CS bypassed the organization's staging system
- CoastalCoder 2y agoI'm guessing there's a lesson to be learned here.
