Umthombo Wokuvula Ovulekile Udonsa ukuCriticism
Ngesonto eledlule ukulimala okusha okusha kwamemezelwa yi-Polish security firm iSec Security Research ku-Linux kernel yakamuva engavumela umhlaseli ukuba aphakamise amalungelo akhe emshinini futhi enze izinhlelo njengomlawuli wezimpande.
Lezi zamuva nje ochungechungeni lwezinkinga zokuphepha ezibucayi noma ezibucayi ezitholakale ku-Linux ezinyangeni ezimbalwa ezedlule. Igumbi lebhodi eMicrosoft cishe lithola ukuzithokozisa, noma okungenani ukuzwa ukukhululeka, kusukela ekungeneni ukuthi umthombo ovulekile kufanele uvikeleke kakhulu futhi okwamanje lezi ziphutha ezibucayi ziyaqhubeka zitholakala.
Iphuthelwa uphawu kodwa ngombono wami ukubiza ukuthi isofthiwe yomthombo ovulekile ivikeleke kakhulu ngokuzenzakalelayo. Okokuqala, ngikholelwa ukuthi isofthiwe ivikelekile kuphela njengomsebenzisi noma umqondisi oyilungisa futhi ayigcine. Nakuba abanye bengase bathi i-Linux ivikeleke kakhulu ebhokisini, umsebenzisi we-Linux ongenalutho unjengoba angalondekile njengomsebenzisi we-Microsoft Windows ongasebenzi.
Esinye isici sokuthi abathuthukisi basabantu. Phakathi kwezinkulungwane nezigidi zekhodi yekhodi ezakha uhlelo lokusebenza kubonakala kulungile ukusho ukuthi into engase ilahleke futhi ekugcineni ingozi izotholakala.
Kukhona umehluko phakathi kwe-open-source and proprietary. I-Microsoft yaziswa yi-EEye Digital Security mayelana neziphambeko nokusetshenziswa kwazo kwe-ASN.1 izinyanga eziyisishiyagalombili ngaphambi kokumemezela ukuthi kunobungozi emphakathini futhi kukhishwe i-patch. Lokho kwakuyizinyanga eziyisishiyagalombili lapho abantu ababi bengathola khona futhi baxhaphaza iphutha.
Umthombo ovulekile ngakolunye uhlangothi uvame ukulandelwa futhi uvuselelwe ngokushesha kakhulu. Kukhona abathuthukisi abaningi abanokufinyelela ikhodi yomthombo lapho kutholakale iphutha noma ubungozi futhi bamemezela i-patch noma i-update ikhishwa ngokushesha ngangokunokwenzeka. I-Linux iyaphenduka, kodwa umphakathi ovulekile ubonakala ubhekene nokusheshisa kakhulu ezindabeni njengoba ziphakama bese uphendula ngezibuyekezo ezifanele kakhulu ngokushesha kunokuba uzame ukungcwaba ukuthi kukhona ubungozi kuze kube yilapho bezungeza ukubhekana nayo.
Lokho kusho ukuthi abasebenzisi be-Linux kufanele baqaphele ukukhubazeka okusha futhi baqiniseke ukuthi bahlale benolwazi mayelana nama-patches yakamuva kanye nezibuyekezo ezivela kubathengisi babo be-Linux abathintekayo. Enye ye-caveat nalezi ziphutha ukuthi ayisebenzisi kude. Lokhu kusho ukuthi ukuhlasela uhlelo usebenzisa lezi zingozi kuyadingeka ukuthi umhlaseli abe nokufinyelela ngokomzimba komshini.
Ochwepheshe abaningi bezokuphepha bavuma ukuthi uma umhlaseli enokufinyelela ngokomzimba kwikhompyutha amagilavu avuliwe futhi cishe noma yikuphi ukulondeka kungaqedwa. Kungukukhubazeka okuqhathaniswayo okukude okungahle kusetshenziswe- amaphutha angahlaselwa kusuka kumasistimu akude noma ngaphandle kwenethiwekhi yendawo- enikeza ingozi enkulu.
Ukuze uthole olunye ulwazi hlola izincazelo ezicacile zokungcupheni kusukela ku-iSec Security Research kuya kwesokudla salesi sihloko.
