>CrossRAT is a cross-platform remote access Trojan that can target all four popular desktop operating systems, Windows, Solaris, Linux, and macOS, enabling remote attackers to manipulate the file system, take screenshots, run arbitrary executables, and gain persistence on the infected systems.

Luckily I maintain a secure system so I have nothing to fear.

Oliver Flores
How do they know it exists if it's undetectable?

OpenBSD doesn't have this problem.

So all I gotta do is not install Java and I'll be golden? Perfect, I wasn't planning on it.

Joshua Phillips
This Most normies dont even have java runtime environment installed on their machines. The ones who do and still get infected deserved it
Ayden Bailey
I can write a program like that in a day, and it works by you downloading it by your own will and running it by your own will...HA...i really got you there, aren't i sneaky...
Michael Cooper
>linux t...thanks poettering for systemd.
Asher Mitchell
I'm kind of embarrassed that i did exactly this a few weeks ago. I seriously reconsider copy an pasting anything now. And sudo is fucking banished from any system, fuck that timeout shit.
Austin Rogers
> undetectable > uses facebook social engineering to get morons to run bios patching code
yeah seems legit. they probably run commonsense 2016, which is way out of date
Jackson Johnson
They obviously mean for anti-viruses, you pedantic faggots.
Dominic Bailey
you fell for the meltdown check script, didn't you?
This is literally flatpak-user level of retardedness needed to install said malware.
Zachary Powell
Joke on you I don't have a desktop operating system
Jordan Sullivan
it's "undetectable" if a big ass portion of antiviral software can't detect it you dumb ass brainlets
In general nothing is "undetectable" you just need to shift awareness to it
Camden Parker
Isn't IBM still prone to remote DOS hacking?

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Oh wow, it's literally fucking nothing.

Reminder that "literally nothing" social engineering caught quite a few Sup Forums freetards not a couple of weeks ago.

Once again BSD wins. Tell me why you still respect a hobo and an autistic german Sup Forums?

TempleOS is safe by design.

Nolan Ross
I can't be the only one amused ms av is one of the two to detect it, can I?
Aiden Ortiz
>the malware also attempts to query systemd files to determine its distribution Hm...
>Moreover, for Linux systems, the malware also attempts to query systemd files to determine its distribution, like Arch Linux, Centos, Debian, Kali Linux, Fedora, and Linux Mint, among many more.
HAHAHA, OH WOW

So 99% of the people who use Lunix then?

>intentionally misquoting me (You) probably did notice that I said this could be avoided by installing everything through trusted repositories, right?
Gabriel Roberts
Seems like a lot of antivirus detects them now. It's funny but if you look at the picture on the website, Microsoft's antivirus actually detects it. Isn't Essentials supposed to be mediocre?
Blake Bell
>linux >an operating system
Aiden White
Microsoft had gotten their shit together for awhile now, probably develop the shit themselfs to make them seem better.

My Android desktop doesn't have this problem

Nobody cares richard
Jonathan Sanders
How do people get their computers infected with shit like this anyway? It's been years since I've stumbled on a run-of-the-mill virus, let alone one of those doomsday devices.
Nathan Fisher
yeah, they have their own problems.
Jose Murphy
Which ones?
Ryder Diaz
social media goyim BTFO
David Cox
How do you get infected by this? Some js exploit or do you have to be retarded and do "sudo ./suspicious_executable"?
Samuel Garcia
>you fell for the meltdown check script, didn't you? Which one was that?
Jonathan Ortiz
Is Solaris actually more popular than BSD?
Julian Ross

JAVA BTFO

Solaris still has a following in these machines, user.
