Owc aura pro x2 vs samsung 970 evo plus
It wasn't a Windows thing or x86, a virus using a more stricter and older definition is a malicious computer program that is able to replicate itself when executed and is able to modify and insert it's own code in to other programs thereby infecting them. There was a period where all unixes were just somewhat harder to write malware for but it was long ago.
Modern win10 probably can’t get that specific thing either because it now also works in a different way. I don’t remember what the specifics of it, but it may have had to do with specifics of the way x86 or windows did something. Using that definition unixes are immune because they work in a different way. Back in the day the canned reply to “Macs can’t get viruses” was “sure, but they’re even more susceptible to worms” which is another very different and very specific kind of malware.
There is one definition of computer virus that is quite narrow. Sounds like the definition of “virus” is used differently here.
#OWC AURA PRO X2 VS SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS UPDATE#
But in all seriousness, this needs to be patched and they literally had a security update just this last week. As a user of both Mac and Linux, yea I kinda panicked (y? I have no idea). I hope Apple patches this vulnerability soon.
#OWC AURA PRO X2 VS SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS PATCH#
Hickey has said that Apple has been informed of the issue but no patch was included in the most recent security update released earlier this week. Hickey’s findings have been independently verified by other security experts but have reportedly not yet been acted upon by Apple itself. He discovered that, with a few minor modifications, the CVE-2021-3156 vulnerability was effective on macOS devices. Now, British security researcher Matthew Hickey has noted that the most recent version of macOS contains the Sudo app. The security flaw, tracked as CVE-2021-3156, affects Sudo, an app used by administrators to grant root access to other users. A vulnerability found last week that was originally thought to only affect the Linux and BSD operating systems is now believed to impact macOS as well.
