Mac and Linux will face new vulnerability attacks

Article title: Mac and Linux will face new vulnerability attacks. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Including desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, open source, and other basic categories recently discovered on Mac and Linux platforms, remind those who trust their security protection measures too much: no one can be immune to the vulnerability. H Security indicates that a series of attack vulnerabilities in Mac OS X have not been fixed yet. One vulnerability exists in the HFS file system, which allows common users to obtain root permissions. another vulnerability is a system core vulnerability that makes the system very vulnerable.

Finally, a vulnerability that is not fixed in AppleTalk may pose an attack risk to the system. H Security also pointed out that the vulnerability was first announced at the CanSecWest Security conference last month, but has not yet been fixed.

In addition, Anthony Lineberry, a senior software engineer from Flexilis, demonstrated how to intrude into the Linux core by using the drive interface to access the physical memory. At the Black Hat security conference on Thursday, the attack was considered a very understandable risk level. This attack will cause malicious processes to be hidden, system calls to be hijacked, and backdoors to be controlled.
