Apple working to remedy a security vulnerability in the operating system of his computer, Mac OS X, that allow hackers infiltrate the devices and that among other things would have already been exploited.
writes the online edition of the Guardian, which states that the “patch” will come with the next update of the software.
Meanwhile, Google and Samsung promise monthly security updates for devices and Galaxy Nexus.
The “bugs” of Apple’s operating system, reports the Guardian, is known as “dyld” and is “more worrisome” than another flaw recently discovered – called “Thunderstrike 2″ – and already partially repaired by the Cupertino company, because it would have been exploited. Dyld would allow a program to have the same “privileges” of the computer’s in practice allows him to run without asking the user (administrator) to enter the system password.
The remedy should be reflected in the next system upgrade, Max OS X 10.10.5.
Meanwhile, Google and its partners (primarily manufacturers like Samsung) are pushing for greater safety of devices based on the operating system ‘Mobile’ Android. Following concerns raised by the flaw “Stagefright” – one in which hackers enter the phone by sending a simple MMS and to which Google had immediately remedied -, Samsung has announced the Galaxy regular monthly updates of the software. A similar move by Big G for the updating of its Nexus devices.
