2018 is the year I'm no longer a poorfag and buy a Mac so I don't have to use Winshit or Loonix.

These things tend to be overblown by media coverage, they usually involve some crazy specific chain of exploits in order to deliver the payloads.

>unfixable
I don't use Windows and I don't even believe it.

>So you can only attack processes that you already control

OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CALL THE CYBER COPS

Yea it's fixable by not using windows

>it doesn't count

Old news. Wait'll the news get's out about the zero day present in all processors with virtualization.

root

>unfixable
>can't be patched

expect a patch within the week if its actually real

>you can only attack processes you can already control

It's not fixable, but the attack method is pretty ridiculously convoluted.

>all processors with virtualization
>not all processors made in the past ten years

Except there's not patch out yet because it's a design flaw

>Wait, are you suggesting it's a lot of fuss about nothing?
>There is nothing you can attack that doesn't have exactly the same access...So you can only attack processes that you can already control.
>So it isn't a security vulnerability...I have to assume that this is just someone trying to drum up publicity.

OP BTFO In his own article. Also, I pirated W10, I didn't pay shit.

>Owned process gets taken over thanks to the exploit

What?

>Code status
>INJECTED

>you can only attack processes that you can already control

You actually think microsoft wont be able to put some temporary bandaid hacky fix over top of it? If its one of those "I can get inject code into your computer at will.. if you have shared folders enabled, 3 user accounts, on an admin account, your desktop background is a christmas tree and you're hopping on one leg" perfect-storm type things, then its basically fucking worthless.

>You are no longer in control of your process because exploit cucked you out

>can't control the process that only exists to control other processes

*alt f4s u*

>make 3 user accoutns
>windows becomes vulnerable

>So you can only attack processes that you already control

IT'S FUCKING NOTHING. Is the same shit about loonix bugs:

>oohhh, a zero-day loonix bug
>how to reproduce?
>you need local acess

lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/27/2

>press alt-F4
>keyboard process is under siege thanks to the exploit

>10:30, process under control
>10:31, process got taken over

>deliberately granting the virus access to your I/O

At that point you're fucked regardless.

Why are so many of the bugs media gets a hold of so abysmal?

>32 posts
>17 IPs
Jesus fucking christ.

This is the most important thing of 2018 that will happen, mark my words

>People posting less than 2 replies
>reeeeeeeeeeee

So we just switch to Windows ME
Where's the problem

I agree. That's why I posted it.

>Switch to unsupported, bug ridden windows from two decades ago because at lest theres no unfixable bug

I'm only three of those.

>People shitposting wojaks
>m-muh loonixxxx

Never underestimate poorfags with brand loyalty over a free product.

because muh headlines. they all sound scary at a glance so that's how they get the page hits then you read it and it's fucking nothing

Kek

>wincuck 10 so shit they give it away for FREEE
>still no adoption
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>Linux so shit they give it away for free for over 10 years
>still no market share

Right, all of them are like MEGA NUKE EXPLOIT and then you read it and the only way it even gets off the ground is if it takes you out on a date 6 times, collects a strand of your hair, and then dismembers your thumb for access.
You would think on Sup Forums of all places people would see past it but I guess console war tier faggotry is too alluring.

IT KEEPS HAPPENNING

>comparing mobile OS to desktop OS
>2017: The year Linux will reach 5% market share
>Oh wait it never did

IT IS NOT FUCKING FAIR!

>Got tired of samefagging

Yikes. Spending the new year acting like a Nintenkiddie.

>be me
>using win10 enterprise
>see this bullshit
What the fuck?

>His OS can only trhive on dying desktop markets
>His OS is incapable of running anything else
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

>It's the 2nd of January

Gotta congratulate Sup Forums and /r9k/. The managed to create a meme even more cancerous than Pepe the frog.

Based Bill still making neets mad after all these years. :3

>at least daddy billy made 'em mad
>it doesn't matter if the OS is permanently cucked

You take that back you doodoo head!

>So angry that he can't even quote properly
>Deletes post out of sheer frustration

Crypto-mining is a big enough incentive to make it workable. Microsoft will need to rebuild Windows 10 from the ground up. Then it will be the only one they fixed and there is your reason to use Windows 10.

>So angry all he can do is post the reddit wojak
You should delete your posts out of shame

>2016

How did you lose internet access for almost 2 years?

>p-please delet ur posts

>implying 2016 + october + 2 years = january 2018

idiot

>suggests deleting post instead of finding fix to save the OS

Seek help.
>I-I-It's I-I-Ironic
Always starts out that way. Gets medically worse pretty fast.

It is as yet unfixed.

>All he can do is post wojaks instead of fixing pacman for the fifth time this week

master race

>All he can do is deny instead of restoring preferred applications for the 7th time of the week

>thinks not posting wojaks will fix this

>fixing pacman
Works on my machine.

Apple Macbook doesn't have this problem

NOT FAIR

>he thinks this is a common problem

cringe

Wow, you mean a zeroday attack isn't gonna be blocked by anti-virus/malware software? Man. I feel so cheated.

winfag suicide when?
0 day exploit from 2 decade ago cant be patch, not that its not patched yet but it cant be patch
this is why i switched to mac 2 months ago to start a good year of 2018 :^)

the story says it might be impossible to fix. did you honestly even try to read it?

Stupid nagitoposter

Surely the number of to-specification programs affected by a fix is astronomically low. Worst case scenario, fix it everywhere else and allow to run these applications in a compatibility sandbox.

>impossible to fix
Okay.
>might be
Oh no.

/biz/ you faggot

>implying i paid to install windows instead of going to the website to install it

fuck off with your bait goyim

lol windows fans, everybody

lol mac fans, everybody

I just came to this thread to save all these sweets pink wojacks.

Beautiful.

>i didnt pay for anything, i pirated enterprise. I can switch to linux without repercussions

ME came out after 2000

yfw its just running an executable and its something that's been well known for the entirety of windows
its insecure and will do whatever you want

It comes from /biz/

haha le nice bees knees wojak xddd
u troled them harde, big boy

what's with the recent /biz/ invasion? Did they crash hard with their le virtual moneyz?

Holy fuck wincucks BTFO HARD ITT
LMAO

>the software company arent making any money selling the hardware that they dont sell apart from the surface
m-m-microsoft btfo!!1

>Windows is sold for free

that's not what it says
that's what the author says
the exploit changes an area of memory from RW (read write) to RWX (read write execute)
which means that an attacker could inject code now that executes a jump to malicious code injected at the end of the binary
the only thing they mean about "control" is that you have to open the program first for the exploit to run its code of escalating memory from RW to RWX
after that, you might as well flatten and reinstall, and hope you have back ups
