CanSecWest 駭客大會 Linux勝出

Ubuntu wins CanSecWest Hack Off
Written by Chris Tangora

The winners and losers in the CanSecWest zero day hack contest are in.  The winner is Ubuntu, as it was the only OS who did not fall to hackers.  The losers are Apple OS X.5.2, Safari, Windows Vista SP 1 and Adobe Flash.  The Windows Vista laptop went down after Adobe Flash Player was installed.  The interesting part is that nobody has reported how long it took the winning team to take over the Windows machine once Flash was installed.  Just seems like media hype now about the "2 minutes" to get into the MacBook Air.

But the big news is Ubuntu.  The open source operating system has shown it can handle it's own in the world of security.  No word on what the Adobe Flash vulnerability is, but it must be OS specific, as the Ubuntu could have had Flash instaled also.  Zero Day viruses and bugs will always be there, so the story isn't as much which OS went down first.  The big question now is, who will fix their bugs first?  I'm assuming that Microsoft will be notified about the bug as well as Adobe, and Apple has a one day head start.  Can the Apple fix be fast enough to make it's way into the 10.5.3 update?

Lots of questions, but we'll have to wait for the answers.

Linux贏了
不過還是不要把任何系統神格話
畢竟事在人為
有好的軟體 但是使用的人沒有相對應的能力
那在好的軟體也是枉然
