Alert the Media! We're Going Public With The Lockout Bypass Flaw!

The Standoff, Google's Project Zero & Microsoft's Unpatched Windows 10 Bypass →

Liam Tung, writing at ZDNet, regales us with a brief soliloquy on Microsoft Corporation's ((NASDAQ: MSFT) unpatched Windows 10 Lockdown Bypass flaw, and news of Google's (NASDAQ:GOOG) Project Zero denial of an extension-to-fix (addressed-ever-so-nicely to Microsoft's powers-that-be) of said unpatched pernicious flaw. Microsoft required an additional 90 days to fix the issue... Must be quite busy in Redomond with the re-org and demotion (and disruption) of the Windows product line, into - fundamentally - a non-business line (should have been executed years ago).
