Do a search for Intel AMT flaw, a far worse security flaw that was open for several years before they found it, still affects most PC's with AMT activated. Not only are you compromising yourself but you aren't getting benefits such as DirextX 12 if you game, nor comparability for new devices such as AR and VR, Hello/Biometrics, newer CPU support etc.Īlso not sure why Piriform is getting a bad wrap, it actually caught the flaw before most larger companies do. Actually if you are scared about security and don't want to go to Unix, don't use an outdated OS that's not receiving the lastest security security patches, for example, anything below 10. Literally has no weight on how the attack functions.

Because the infected code was injected into the software with a VALID, TRUSTED signature, this would've infected your Windows 8 and Windows 7 PC just the same.
Posted on Sep 18th 2017, 17:24 Reply #21 NightOfChristĪsk any hacker if he prefers to deal with windows 7 or 10, and tell me the answer.How is this relevant at all? This has NOTHING to do with OS versions inside the Windows OS family. What your off-topic raving has anything to do with Piriform's servers being broken into, no one knows. Ever since Microsoft began giving a shit about security of their system with Windows Vista and the introduction of UAC (a functional equivalent that Linux Distros have had for more than a decade) every OS has been harder to crack than the last.

In every single technical way, Windows 10 is far harder to compromise than Windows 7 ever was or will be. The way Windows 10 is built (by modules) makes it that any decent hacker can do what he wants on your system.Īsk any hacker if he prefers to deal with windows 7 or 10, and tell me the answer.No one believes Windows 10 is the most flawed because it isn't true. Why this happens suddenly? Is hacking a new thing? It isn´t, but Windows 10 is the most flawed OS ever from microsoft and no one believes it. Manu_PTFunny, we are on the Era of hacking, backdoors, trojans, spy, etc. Talos' security Craig Williams said that the issue was detected at an early stage, when the hackers appeared to be collecting information from infected machines, rather than forcing them to install new programs. A clean version of CCleaner Cloud took a little while longer to be released, seeing the light of day on Sept. 12, with a new, uncompromised version of CCleaner being released the same day. Piriform said that Avast, its new parent company, had uncovered the attacks on Sept. Or better yet, make sure to uninstall the app and install the new, corrected version, which currently stands at.

The nature of the attack code suggests that the hacker won access to a machine used to create CCleaner, Talos researcher Craig Williams said.ĬCleaner does not feature automatic updates, so if you make use of CCleaner, make sure to check your software version, and force an update through the app.
Users would have noticed nothing wrong on their systems, since the entire malicious string of code was run under CCleaner's authentic digital certificate. Specifically, hackers embedded remote administration tools on CCleaner v and CCleaner Cloud v, tools that then tried to connect to several unregistered web pages, looking to download additional unauthorized programs, according to Cisco's Talos security research unit.
