The boss of the cybersecurity company CrowdStrike has said he is “deeply sorry” for the global IT chaos caused by a flawed software update to Microsoft’s Windows operating system which was provided by his company.
George Kurtz, the CEO of CrowdStrike, warned that it may take some time for the fix which has been implemented to work and for services to return to normal.
Millions of people around the world have been affected, after transport networks, businesses, healthcare services, TV networks and payroll systems were among those hit by the biggest global computer outage ever.
Computers failed to start-up after the flawed update and technology experts have said that every affected PC may need to be individually provided with a software fix.

John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus

The “fix” is more accurately instructions on how to physically go in front of each computer and spend 1-2 minutes in order get it to boot into windows. Physically in front of it being the key phrase. The logistics is a nightmare. It’s not a “fix”; I’m tired of media describing it as such.
@im.empimp
@im.empimp 2 ай бұрын
It is a "fix" in that it does undo the damage, but it is't an automated patch that can just be sent directly to the machines. Many years ago, I worked in an emergency services job (think 911 responder) and it always amazed me that community members would randomly bring us food, particularly on holidays. For those folks working in IT, particularly at really, really large organizations, their communities (e.g. their co-workers in other departments) need to bring them some good food and beverage to help them to keep going through an undoubtedly long, tedious weekend, as they manually fix each machine!

No it didn’t… Skynet was an artificial neural network-based conscious group mind and artificial general superintelligence system for a start. This is a system for receptionists that possesses no intelligence whatsoever. It also doesn’t control the military. It also can’t become self aware so we won’t have to try and turn it off which won’t cause it to attack us with nukes to preserve itself. The irony is that you’re probably a bot yourself. Almost all of a KZbin is robots at this point.

The CrowdStrike software loads on pre-startup which is usually before any backup system that a company may have runs. If there’s a startup exception, the system automatically halts the rest of the startup and reboots. In this case, the system then loops itself with the glitch and causes the blue screen. Long story short, any backup system then requires the user to start their device in safe mode which is basically “isolation mode” which can’t be done automatically. It is sad, but these companies basically couldn’t do anything to prevent it. They also can’t opt out of CrowdStrike updates since the software updates regularly to patch exploits/vulnerabilities.

The main issue is, Windows 10 and 11 are sort of designed to prevent this kind of power for antivirus software. The problem is, they all started creating aggressive workarounds to regain all the power they used to have, pretty much like a rootkit malware. When that breaks, it breaks everything as it is now the core of Windows. I suspect these companies will get even less access come Windows 12. Other nightmare scenarios is, if the third party antimalware stops responding, Windows is often left completely without any protection. I suspect CrowdStrike's relatively fast growth from nothing to being "everywhere" in little over a decade is partly because everybody got the impression their software wasn't as reckless with all of this, as the old Antiviru-zillas Symantec and McAffee.

You can't hold a whole company responsible for stuff like this. This stuff happens all the time in software development. Sometimes it's as simple as you not having a particular hardware configuration. You enjoy KZbin for free, and it's entirely possible a small code change could bring the entire platform down. If that was a huge financial fine every time it happens, no one would be able to afford the software we've come to rely on day to day.

But that’s not the lesson. Crowdstrike is probably about the most expensive XDR solution you can get. So companies being affected by this have not been underfunding IT. Crowdstrike might invest more money in their QA team but that’s about it. The issue is the only way to avoid these sorts of issues is to duplicate all of your systems but using completely different hardware and software so that you’re 100% completely different. That includes internet and networking as well. Which is completely impossible.

​@@stuartmorgan9327 What I was referring to was that due to compliance and profit target requirements, corporations resort to the cheapest security solution - which is a one-size-fits-all cloud-delivered product with 24x7 updates directly into the kernel, which replaces a security team of salaried qualified personnel dedicated to security. One qualified security person's salary is much higher than a Crowdstrike subscription. There are so many millions of businesses of all sizes that do not run Crowdstrike and do not get hacked everyday in the absence of a similar product. I'm not against automation either. Macs have better kernel security. Crowdstrike has been messing up their Linux updates similarly, but there is at least an option in Linux to run Crowdstrike in a lower privilege mode. Qualified DevSecOps personnel have setups which allow PXE boot as an alternative, which is how one guy brought back 1100 servers in 30 min yesterday. The point is again, if your management believes that a cloud solution can replace your security team or IT team, they will do it, and later when the cloud product fails, you don't have people to fix the mess. Now imagine if CS's CDN were compromised and the payload was not a boot-loop inducing null pointer deference due to poor data validation, but an actual payload from some state sponsored actor.

Maybe cloudstrike will test their updates before they push them now. Especially, when it’s a sys file for Kernel loading pointers. I’ve seen/been part of a team pushing corrupt files get pushed into service before, but only separate exes, just the standalone failed, when I showed my supervisor it didn’t work. But this, this is nuts! There should be quite a few people responsible for this. The dev(s) who wrote it. The dev manager, maybe the person who pushed it. QA and QA management for not testing it or if they were not scheduled to, clearly needs to be resolved. Truthfully, working for a very large software company myself, this kind of thing could happen quite frequently, and the world is lucky it hasn’t. There are a lot of irresponsible and arrogant people in IT, and it shows.

"It takes a while to get a fix , since our customersrs are still testing our software update". Either Crowdstrike did not do proper testing or they got hacked and their update got infected with rogue code that they failed to detect. Either way it's a terrible look for a cyber security firm selling endpoint protection.

The real culprits are all the management of these affected places for falling for the Sales blurb and purchasing the software in the first place. These organizations often let their accountants and senior management make these decisions based on cost and popularity instead of technical excellence. It is the same with backup software. Often people never test their backup software until they have a problem and then they find out that there is a problem with the backup data. All these issues are well known to the technical people in the organizations but these people are underpaid and undervalued compared to Management people. There is no substitute for excellent technical staff in computers. Believe me on this, I am 80 years old and have 60 years experience working in the industry at all levels.

In 1872, Samuel Butler published “Erewhon”. It describes a fictional society discovered in a remote part of the South Island of New Zealand. At first, it appears as a Utopia. Much of the hard work is carried out by machines. However, eventually, the people become reliant upon the machines and the machines start to take over. It was very prophetic, for 1872, but, even then, the world no longer relied on letters delivered through the post - the electric telegraph had taken over for much important communication. In factories, skilled craftsmen had been replaced by machines, operated not by workers treated as people - they were referred to as “hands” since the workers only useful purpose was to use their hands to set the machinery in motion and keep it working. Even then, the dehumanisation of society had begun.

Surely, a GP Surgery could have a local computer system, not connected to the internet, which would not, therefore, ever require any “security” updates. The doctors and nurses would update the patient records directly. The appointments diary would be on this local computer. Running alongside the local computer system would be the national NHS system. So, in practice, if a patient attends to be seen about a rash, for example, the doctor would look at the rash first - he does not need a computer to diagnose it, he uses his training and expertise. Then, of course, having diagnosed the rash, the doctor does need to know the patient’s full medical history, as some drugs might not be suitable for some patients. If the patient has been with the Surgery for, say, thirty years, the local computer should provide a reliable medical history. The doctor could ask the patient whether he had been to hospital recently, or seen anyone else outside the Surgery. If the doctor was still in doubt and the NHS computer was down, he could always wait before prescribing treatment. However, it is scandalous that many Surgeries simply used the IT failure as an excuse to slam their doors shut and have a day off. For example, in the case I mention, the doctor might be able to look at the rash, confirm that it is nothing to worry about and send the patient home. This complete reliance upon IT - almost a mindless slavery to IT, is disheartening.

What if some patients travelled to another part of the country and fell ill? How would the hospitals there access the patients medical records without Internet access? How would you monitor or track epidemics? Also how would the NHS know how much of a particular drug has been used and what to replace if every single hospital or local surgery was running its own closed system? Also if the computers are never connected to the Internet, would their Operating systems, antivirus and other software not be hopelessly out of date?

It’s not about no backup, going to backups has issues itself. Firstly what is your RPO depending on that depends on how much data you lose, is it better to lose that data or fix the issue and lose no data? Secondly, you rollback the system, you then also have to prevent the update from taking place again. This is security software by its very nature it’s designed not to allow people to turn it off easily. Also if you turn it off you’ll be exposing the organisation to other risks. Do you accept that risk or wait for crowdstrike to issue a fix knowing that their engineers will all be fully committed to solving this issue.

How did it slip past Microsoft? It didn't. Microsoft aren't responsible for this.

Third party companies. Microsoft doesn't check the code for every update done by everyone. If a popular gaming software company creates an update for their "Super Duper Game" and it crashes everyone's PC because of their incompetent programmers, is Microsoft responsible?

They fired the tester, the developer had a family emergency. The devop pushed it to production, as it looked ok, as his last todo on a Friday😂Like in any other software company, no QS, but cost-cutting de luxe. And now the world is in shambles. Outsourcing all Fortune 500 security to one company for possible deniability has a drawback, a single point of failure.
