The ‘Most Serious' Security Breach Ever Is Unfolding Right Now.
`
The Washington Post via MSN From "14 hours Ago" https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/techn...d=winp1taskbar "The descriptions used by security experts to describe the new vulnerability in an extremely common section of code called log4j border on the apocalyptic.' “The log4j vulnerability is the most serious vulnerability I have seen in my decades-long career,” Jen Easterly, U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency director, said..." Computer programmers and security experts have been working night and day since the vulnerability was publicized to fix it in whatever piece of software they’re responsible for. At Google alone, more than 500 engineers had been going through reams and reams of code to make sure it was safe, according to one employee. That process was being repeated at all kinds of tech companies, spawning an entire new genre of memes from coders lamenting the hellish week they’ve been through. “Some of the people didn’t see sleep for a long time, or they sleep like three hours, four hours and wake back up,” Ashkenazi said. “We were working around-the-clock. It’s a nightmare since it was out. It’s still a nightmare.” .
