Yeah. His mom died and his dad was severely injured in a boating accident. Very curious there is no mention of that. Edit: They actually mention it at the end of the article http://fortune.com/2017/06/02/uber-

It doesn't seem to require that. >As was the case nearly 20 years ago, webpages that use the bad filename in, for example, an image source will provoke the bug and make the machine stop responding. Depending on what the machine is d

It's like deadlock. It will just make apps waiting forever. If an app/driver/etc doesn't handle that well, then you can get a blue screen.

The SMB exploit was released by the Shadow Brokers on April 14, 2017. How come Microsoft patched it in February? How did they know about it?

Would that patent really hold? It's just a round box with 8 holes! So now (well since 2012), if someone makes a box with holes, it's breaking patent law? I thought only software patents were ridiculous

How do people get their files out of isolated computers? For example if someone does a CT scan and needs the upload the results to the patient's file? Use a USB key? I think that's what my boyfriend does with his driving simulator

Are you sure it doesn't index anything? There is even a section in the settings called Indexes. Also when you launch it first, it's going to be empty and says it's scanning your folders and it takes a little bit until you see

Couldn't Apple have updated the phone with an iOS that bypasses the verification, then destroy that iOS installer? Then the FBI can access the phone, but they don't have access to the OS, so they can't use it on other phones?

I don't think it's that easy though. For example, if your CT scan software was made for Windows XP and you randomly update to Windows 10, then if you have any problems, the company making the software can blame you for not using W

I understand that people love open source, but how is that relevant here? For example OpenSSL is open source, yet it didn't prevent Heartbleed and other exploits from happening?

I imagine if you use strings, like in printf("Could not open ghostscript project %s", project) You could find the "Could not open ghostscript project %s" part in the binary?

No. That was another vulnerability used as an example. In this case, if you don't send some hash, it will authenticate you, allowing you to authenticate with user `admin` and no password.
