Not an excuse - they should be testing for this exact thing - but Crowdstrike (and many similar security tools) have a separation between "signature updates" and "agent/code" updates. My (limited) reading of this situation is that this as a update of their "data" not the application. Now apparently the dynamic update included operating code, just just something the equivalent of a yaml file or whatever, but I can see how different kinds of changes like this go through different pipelines. Of course, that is all the more reason to ensure you have integration coverage.
