"Accidentally" it was a driver full of null bytes 😂😂😂

[@kit76149]

@@Orincaby Usually the real answer is the more boring and mundane. They were using an automated system to create the driver (I heard it might even be using AI).

[@MrTurbo_]

@@Orincaby it wasn't really the driver it self, it was essentially a sort of script file with virus detection methods which was executed by the driver. But that doesn't matter too much. From my experience as a developer, automated build systems sometimes succeed even though there are errors when they really shouldn't be calling the build a success, which can creat files which are very broken, which are now getting automatically pushed to customers. I think that is what happened here probably

[@Orincaby]

Just seriously imagine for a second, someones in a critical situation and the life supporting systems show this fucking screen. It’s literally the screen of death for the patient.

[@coooooooooool1000]

having a life support system rely on a singular windows machine that is connected to the internet seems like excessive irresponsibility analysis and statistics sure, but the actual pumps and whatever are dedicated hardware a hospital that has falcon sensor running on all their clients said they stopped starts of all elective surgeries but continue to be ready for all emergencies as they have contingency plans for that still, crowdstrike has a lot to answer for not slowly rolling out updates on a few machines at first to test instead of applying it to all client systems at once and companies need to consider if they want to go back to vetting each of their updated softwares on their own preview, canary, early, production rings

[@allangibson8494]

Insurance companies insisted on it.

[@jbird4478]

That doesn't happen. Medical devices are licensed as fixed hardware and software. They are not connected to the internet and rarely if ever updated. They may run Windows somewhere underneath, but even then it is a completely frozen version that has been thoroughly tested with that specific hardware. Many hospitals are dependent on Windows, but that's more due to organizational requirements; patient information systems, staff management, supply management, etc.

[@DioTheGreatOne]

But didn't this update come out for linux and mac machined as well, with only windows machines going crazy? This is obviously CrowdStrike's fault but I'm sure that this also means that there's something wrong with the way windows handles Kernel-level drivers.
