Sony BMG Rootkit Vulnerabilities Still Widespread
from the take-my-machine-please dept
While Sony's CEO blows off the rootkit fiasco, damage from it is still widespread, with a researcher saying this weekend that machines on at least 350,000 networks still have the vulnerability opened by copy-protection software from Sony BMG CDs, including military and government computers. The number is down from when the similar survey was run a month earlier in November, showing 568,000 networks with computers that had asked to lookup a server used by the software. Of course, this only accounts for the XCP software; there's no word on how many machines were infected by MediaMax, the other copy protection Sony BMG used, that opened security holes in users' PCs.

Geez
Someone in the company before development:
"Well we'll only lose small profits from this as consumers won't respond so we'll continue production."
