No
it's kind of wild that just one company can do this
Nah only crowd strike
no, only windows OS which had uhh that program which i am not fully aware of
Not wrong lol
hidden c2 but not c2
Ah yes I'll leave my enterprise to be vulnerable just to make sure an update doesn't have a rare occurrence of a bug.
Does it help any further that one of the Pi's is my PiHole, which handles my entire network's DNS?
Other just just a flight tracker
Falcon sensor
Shut the pi hole

i never said that you should NEVER update, but thing i said is a common stragety which is usually used with beta versions of new updates
Come on it was right there someone had to
It wasn't a beta.....
I don't think you understand
Well I get that it is necessary to have a secure system which is up to date. But I think that not every update is always making your it more secure.
oh im not talking about current situation because i dont have enough information about that, im talking generally
https://youtube.com/shorts/ILaessjNU-w?si=QtEmkkzvPdqv5c0n
Ah yes. Nothing like giving your elderly neighbors PTSD
Security posture is important and keeping everything up to date is definitely the most critical and important part of that.
the thing i said can depend on the situation though, if your current system has a HUGE vulnerability, update it instantly. but if it's a small thing which is not discoverable easily, ya can wait a little time to make sure that the new update doesn't have any bugs
Yes I totally get that. But I can also remember that a couple of years ago Windows bricked itself with an update.
Someone from Q/A is going to have a very bad day
Dam I'd hate to be the spokesperson from crowd strike if it isn't the ceo
PR person lol
💀
They’ll prolly make a press release on their blog or smth
I don’t think I would be able to show my face after a colossal fuckup on this scale lmao
I always said you are allowed to make one oopsie at work, I doubt this is an allowed oopsie
I also remember in 2004 when people were racing to download a fix for an LSASS vulnerability and instead would lose against the worm that exploited it that caused system instability.
Because windows didn't have automatic updates back then.
Yeah I was there
But what is better than?
What worm am I talking about?
I mean this is also a nightmare
Sasser as far as I remember.
W32.Blaster-Wurm
W32.Lovsan
Ok yes I can agree to that
Let's say you turn off automatic updates because of your concern and then your company gets ransomwared.
Is that better than one rare bug?
this is pretty much a worm cuz you got IT departments installing it for you 🤣
I wouldn’t mind being a paid software updater lol
The job role being to update software
Well I think that's where it depends on how you creates your network. For example in the production at Mercedes not every qr code scanner has to have access to the Internet
I'd make a lottery where 1 our of 1000 gets rickrolled
fancy ar
Is that a XM7/SIG MCX Spear?
or someone does
You reckon the company will survive after this? I'd assume a shit ton of lawsuits will soon come
They will. Its a PR nightmare, but it only impacted Windows servers.
Yes
Crowdstrike is a very big company
They're huge they will
Ah I see
sure it will
Buying crowdstrike stock at this time looks like a good idea tbh
😂
yeah you could totally do that
Once the markets open
Didn’t even realise that damn
Actually yeah definitely would've impacted them too
Assuming they use crowd strike ig
I saw a tweet (or are they called Xs now?) from someone saying that they pushed an update without testing it, does anyone have a bit more info?
markets should be open soon, 14 minutes
hehe
yes exactly what happened
bad driver caused a boot loop
What driver
Ah
Do you think they’ll do a buyback?
I can speak for the pistol, it's a skeletanized 2011, or 1911. As for rifle, all I know is that it's an AR, don't know what exactly it is, my friend picked out both to rent
MURICA!
hi
Like AR or assault rifle
maybe, I dunno, their stock is cheap enough
AR
can we not talk about guns here, please
Very weird looking lol
@_JohnHammond There is a faulty channel file, so not quite an update.
There is a workaround...
- Boot Windows into Safe Mode or WRE.
- Go to C:\Windows\System32\drivers\CrowdStrike
- Locate and delete file matching "C-00000291*.sys"
- Boot normally.
1/2
I'm not one of those idiots who call AR "Assault Rifles" 
How widespread/commonplace is CrowdStrike anyways? I've had a mild/moderate interest in cybersecurity in general and while I know a lot of antivirus software, I've literally never heard of it until today, and now I find out systems are down worldwide because of a bad update?
very
I agree, can this be taken else where?
Assault Rifle-15
I wanted to shoot the Scar H, that thing is a FUCKING BEUTY
like if you want, take it do DMs
This is the Scar H, 7.62x51mm
I guess I've been living under a rock. I've always used Malwarebytes personally. Granted, I don't own a bussiness enterprise so maybe crowdstrike has features that are more appealing to enterprises compared to someone like me who's just an average joe who uses a computer for personal use?
0 kickback
Crowd strike is more commercialised
That probably explains it.
yes because it costs money
I wonder if it's decent. Granted, if an update completely FUBAR's your computer, I can't exactly say it's a good antivirus.
I would think it’s pretty good
Considering their repute
that is why it has taken planes down
Before the crashing fiasco
well not down but like grounded planes
Its used globally, one of the larger Security Software Vendor companies.
As I've said I use malwarebytes and that's always been Ol' Reliable. Got reccomended it from BleepingComputer (old techie support forum) because I had a rootkit or something that MacAfee couldn't get rid of. (This was like back before 2010-ish)
Yeah that would kill the company I think
You underestimate the ability of big companies to dodge liability
I hope they can get it fixed.
Malewarebytes is greate for home users. However in commerical I would be using Crowdstrike or another vendor similiar; not malewarebytes.
surprisingly, probably not
Nah probably not tbf
I mean have you seen Microsoft updates?
PrintNightmare
Particularly huge ones like that
Microsoft itself has had some oopsies
🤣
Yeah like that stupid screenshot your computer randomly
Send it to a folder or something lol
Yeah copilot recall
Yeah that's the most stupidest thing I've ever heard
Wouldn’t have been as bad if it wasn’t initially on by default
I believe it does go to the cloud
AFAIK
As in if u have show password ticked it'll show and not blank it
What if you're not in cloud?
Or does it go straight to one drive?
Or just one in particular I mean
My bad it doesn’t as far as Microsoft says
Idk. I'd be paranoid about it.
But I wouldn’t put it past them to upload the pictures anyway
Yeah they love spyware lol
I have a crowdstrike lanyard, I wonder how long it'd take to be recognised if I wore it outside 
People might think you're the culprit
my gardener has a crowdstrike cap, when I first saw it, I had to take a double take
he has had it for a few months
Never trust the gardener it was him
somehow doubt that
gardener by day, hacker by night
I hope the people responsibile for this are fired.
or at least punished somehow. (pay cuts, etc.)
Mr Robot but not a gardener
and steps taken to try and prevent this from happening again. Did they not test the update?
sad thing is that the every day junior devs will be let go, the managers who are supposed to guide those people? they are fine
Either way he's seeing bugs 😎
Hello guys I need help
I remember I think Macafee once, a long time ago, had a similar bad update where it would falsely detect and delete svchost which would cause a reboot loop
Same, I hated it.
I would think less the devs and more Q/A
at least back in 2008-ish
It’s their job to catch these things in the first place
no idea if modern mcafee is any better
I use kaspersky
agreed, this shouldn't happen.
I hated their desktop popups every 5 minutes
well maybe they don't have q/a...
it's like a patient going in for surgery at a hospital and they amputate the wrong limb, or do the wrong procedure, or a medical record gets mixed up etc
That is straight up just irresponsible on crowdstrike’s part like wtf
a update basically bricking a computer is about just as bad
this is a fun thread

ah come on buddy
I’m pretty sure we all know how this ends

39C fracking hell...
my eye socket are sweeting
Oh wow lol same dude

I need a bingo sheet for this stuff

read the rules bud, no DMing people without permission and this is an ethical server #rules
how application servers and webservers communicate with each other ?
Pore person 😉
Rookie numbers
also why you stalking people?
at last i gove that num to scamers
HTTP?
or maybe REST APIs?
look up client/server architecture
To find the French Whatsapp phone number of Khadidja Benmessaoud, she is a person who works, she does tourism in Southern Algeria Tamanrasset, she lives in Paris in 75009 in the 9th arrondissement
we don't do that here
Jealous
Wikipedia?
yes or google
The client–server model is a distributed application structure that partitions tasks or workloads between the providers of a resource or service, called servers, and service requesters, called clients. Often clients and servers communicate over a computer network on separate hardware, but both client and server may reside in the same system. A s...
yes. but here in NL. we have no forest or so. is hell with no cold air at all
Same here in Australia
But we get around 46C
- we are under the sea lvl. so all water moist and things fall down and is horror
Oof
Although that is similar to Queensland
39C in NL? wow, you about to die aren't you?
Center parcs have a cashless system in place since covid.
They're whole system is down, nobody can pay for anything.
What are centre certs?
Corrected!
John Hammond did a thumbnail on a YouTube video mocking the blue screen. Little did he know. 😂
4 days ago
maybe he did know
Oh is it like a resort or smth
Conspiracy?!?!?!?! /s
he is one with the force
I'm not buying your wares
force him to make a game engine in lua
Gotta buy it before the buyback
ahh I thought the markets opened at 9am eastern
<t:1721394589:R>
I prefer to do index funds,
also, I'd wait to see how far it plummets
or put in a buy order at $100 🤣
best weather
do you live where I live? (I doubt it, since those numbers are in C)
although we get no rainstorms
exactly, best weather to go out
Imagine the many crisis meetings going on right now
i live in Russia 
wow... hola 🤣
What for 👀
i exposed my location 😭 , but russia is big , am not scared !

Moscow 
It's not big...it's MASSIVE!
elimination strategy won't work with me 
trueee
Okay, so not Moscow, St. Petersburg?? 
we can neither confirm nor deny the existence of the information requested, but hypothetically if such data were to exist, the subject matter would be classified and cannot be disclosed 
oh wow, that's a significant drop 
lmfaoo
they probably will lol
atleast the weekend started early 🤷♂️
someone pushed to prod on a friday/thursday
i think this is not the first time
evil evil people
isn't that Microsoft fault ?
nope it is not microsofts fault
<t:1721395800:R> 👀
Howw
oh just dipped below 300
343 👀
crowdstrike makes software that runs on tons of systems
their package/driver causes the bsod by handling things
hence microsoft is off the hook
am i looking at the wrong one 😭
integration testing... what integration testing?
you think I have 343$ 
i'm investing my whole £2 networth
yeah me too
gonna give it 10-15 mins or so and see what happens
any here try Hyprland ?
a 10% short is not worth it with my amount of money 
299.95 this is apparently the pre-market price
its 297.97 right now
What is it
I'm still not sure why Microsoft is part of the root cause
like i3 just not i3
@boreal scarab should know 
(clearly wants money for himself)
Hmm?
it is not
I'm still not sure why Microsoft is part of the root cause
-Birb
context...

if you get a bad enough driver you get kernel panics
Microsoft is always part of the root cause
I don't have the money to pay for tuition, you think I'd have money for this 
Ah
cos it is
I see
It still might be DNS 
Because Microsoft is shit and ties IE in with the kernal
Why were MS services down this morning then?
would be funniner if it was BGP again
lmfao
oh... seperate issue
at the same time?
just funny coinicidence
ouch
take a 3mil loan pay back in 18 months
(not finacial advice)
or it could be as everyone that got bsod:s called microsoft or sent debug posts to microsoft
maybe ye
when you don't understand that it is crowdstrike
yeahhh, I tried, but I've already exceeded my limit cause liver stuff
yeah probably just funny coincidence with issues then
i guess
(no)

positive thoughts in gambling
I've had a good time with Nano Nuclear Energy
riding the $4 -> $30 wave
it's firm at 295.3
How about vim nuclear energy
im always watching and just giving financial advice to others cus I have too much money
(not financial advice plus im broke)
too dangerous... people don't know how to stop it again if something happens
Hey alexa Google how to quit vim
also, like you never know, in a week, they'll be like "yeah our processes suck, gotta rehaul everything"
opens at 294
go big or go home, buy 10.000 in next 30 seconds
(don't do that)
YAAAAY
Markents have opened!!!
it's open!
then there will be Crowdstrike whistle blowers and then they start dying
who dropped the 5mil
293
Why the hell is NVIDIA dropping 
gotta sell to buy
all is dropping atm
and why is NVIDIA cheaper than crowdstrike 😭
cus its worth more
we're at 290!
Stop touching my NVIDIA stonks 
Lmao
it is same reason why corona beer was almost dead when corona virus was cool or so
it's going up again
292
lmfao
thats usually how it goes
if you didnt buy above 57k in the last 2 minutes, go off the internet and cry cus you missed being rich
(literally untrue)
298
eh, it's going up again
it'll probably go back to its original price in a couple days
maybe
(only saying that cus he didnt buy)
as long as crowstrike employees keep their mouth shut
How'd you know! 
I'm in a $299
or they fire the intern that pushed code to production on a friday
time for the

when you are here wasting time chatting, there are people who make money from this stuff 
hey, I can't buy it cause I'm broke asf, so I thought why not talk about it 🤷♂️
if they start talking about how they have horrible processes, then next thing you know, down they go again
@pine stratus these are also people that have the money, to make money.
loan gambling:
(not financial advice)
they did yes, but the prices were down all the way at -20% earlier today
wasn't that just pre market?
I think @silver sky managed to get some in at -17% or cheaper... it's at -12% now
ye ye pre market
I'd hold until stuff cools off a little (NOT financial advice)
xD
the market closes at what? 3PM EST?
reeeee
they just need 1 more gpu 
AI is here to stay and Nvidia is way ahead in that race
everybody knows you gotta sell everything when you see an opportunity to go all in
they already are, they're wayyy ahead of any of their competitors (I'm looking at you AMD)
xD
for now the stock price is just hovering around 300 +/- 5
we balling
thats whats up
shoudve put 3mil at 290 like I said
(not financial advice)
I was close to buying $100 worth of bitcoin back when it was at $4
but knowing me I would have sold the first time it skyrocketed to $100
xD
everyone who is online but not talking is making big bucks rn
lol
Wide boi is happy
I'm up $20 now.. now the purchase/sales fees are covered at least 
shadows total profits from buying bitcoin == 500 usd
NO SHIT 
thats whats up
You can still trade on the italian and german stock markets 😉
(NOT financial advice)
shouldve put triple
i.e forgot about a bitcoin wallet and about 5 years later found the credentials for it
logged in
and tada randomly 500 usd richer
and you sold...
"Unusual trading volume"
I bought Netflix early on, when I realized I was up $1200, I sold, I could've been up a lot lot more
wallstreet bets is gonna go ham
Damn
it fell from 356 to 304...
all part of the plan

couldve also plummeted
stock will probably rebound if no one terminates their contracts with crowdstrike
could've
I had put $50 into it
50 and you made 1200 is unbelievable
but its not
311 and rising my dudes 
its at over 600, I bought it at like $1, it was very early on
sell after the rise of the second fall
(not financial advice)
I'm sure it's gonna rebound in a couple days
yea it'll only be a short dip for sure
or it could plummet in a couple days if stories start coming in
but they fixed the problem and are rolling out updates
we still got a whole lot of hours before the market closes, it may rebound to it's original price today 🤷♂️, only time will tell
like I said, all you need is some crazy intern going like "you should see their dev process"
was it an intern that pushed code to production on a friday? 
with how the stock has done so far, I'm confident it's only gonna be either a couple hours or a day at the latest
right after they put a ton in
the already affected computers require manual intervention to get out of the BSOD loop
I was riding the happy train of Darktrace when it went public... then some idiot analyst announced on a Sunday evening that they didn't understand why this was the case because the tool on its own is useless if you don't have an experienced teem of analysts to use it, also
stock prices dipped like mad
xD
im just upset I didnt buy nvidia when I wanted to a few years back
can anybody help me whith an hack on somebody sending nudes to a minor sory for just bursting on here
I ended up buying disney instead since I knew more about them at the time
ouch
Microsoft has officially stated that rebooting up to 15 times should fix it, too
which is hilarious
no time for sorries on the market, look forward to what the next mistakes can be!
(not financial advice even if it sounds cool)
wait where 
nah I know
while reboot == True
reboot
pretty sure Crowdstrike has the break
real
Oh my god 
now that's what you call a good dip in the pool 😎
it's rug pull 🙂
tesla still down lol
hullo
yo
you missed being rich
lmfaoooo

I am trying to make weight for next week
I wish I had that
It's like Indian John Wick but instead of his dog being killed it was his mother
This is illegal and against our community rules
shudup no PC user
Matt got his hands on crowdstrike software
The bass just gave me heart palpitations though, worth it
you missed being rich
my monitor arrived whooo
I’m going to send you a ping of death if you keep acting up 😠
Don't you need your PC for it?
Omg the quality is actually amazing, time to get a noise complaint
hey jabba
OI YOU AS WELL
Hello Zoj
Try plugging it into your PC
Jabba, can you help me make weight?
jabba built me a new pc? thank you jabba
Hi jabba 👋
Umm, iron would probably be the best to make a weight
Can't believe an update outed so much 🤣
"The team behind Formula One drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell appeared to have encountered the same PC issues that airlines and banking services have been experiencing this morning – at least according to an image doing the rounds on social media.
It shows Mercedes team members in t-shirts emblazoned with Crowdstrike’s logo, whilst apparently contending with the same blue screen of death their update has wrought on many PCs.
Formula One drivers have been taking to the Hungaroring racetrack near Budapest for their first practice ahead of Sunday’s Hungarian Grand Prix."
Hello Vain
Smh smh
Jabba on a Stick: heaviest weight in the universe
Make weight not make a weight
Of course of course, PayPal me £200 and it’s all yours
what the
its 2024 😂
Isn't your PC a 4080
Driver update, broke driver, bsod
You’d know, you’ve been around long enough to see all the heavy things
I wish 😂
and it's BSod bDay today 🙂
looks like the stock is a decent buy as of this moment
What spec was your PC again
Are you over or under
although it has already started recovery
Over
3070, i7 12700
isnt jabba like the most jacked dude in the gym
yh
How many days to make weight?
oops
What the hell was that 
OHSHI- that ninja delete
Hey does the 200$ dea also apply o me
8
Oi I saw that

That's a great deal for 200 bucks
Trying fasting?
Jabba det Modd
I have 2 72 hour fasts planned
If you want to send me £200 as well, go for it
with water atleast?
the shipping alone would be 200 if not more
Yeah, water and electrolytes
You have to come pick it up
I’m not shipping nothing
Good good
fasting doesnt sound that healthy, might be wrong idk
Nz? Lol
It can be when done properly
Denmark
Caloric deficit is also a good way of losing weight
Yeah, already been in a calorie deficit for months
Ah that'd do it
i can't even ping a machi,e
what the
what about gaining weight
jabba brain rot confirmed 🗿
have you heard about #site-support
Yuh
I don't even know what that is
eat more
be a woman, weight gain super easy (not always)
Tiktok brainrot
not everything
Be a man, have the best metabolism (atleast for me) 
https://youtube.com/@beardmeatsfood?si=ZA2ot1rVpimIrPtl
Or be this guy...
You can slow down your metabolism if you have a fast one but I don’t recommend it
I got it at 17-

i have such a fast metabolism
It just takes a while for your food to get from your mouth to your stomach (I’m calling you tall)

hi
Jayy if you started going gym and filled your frame out a little, you would look amazing
Jayy do you drink caffeine at all?
Malware company is crazy lol
Since when 😂
nah I don't like coffe or tea
There’s caffeine in soft drinks too lil man
i rarely have soft-drinks
nope
I’m currently in caffeine withdrawal so my appetite is insane. I can’t stop eating
tbh I do get hungry i just dont like eating
just dont like the taste
You just gotta find things you like
Try cooking for yourself too
You’re more likely to eat it if you cook it
pasta
Try eggs
Hate eggs
Fried rice
hi hi
A nice sprite in the afternoon 
Literally going out to buy sprite rn
Sprite zero >>
Radioactive
RIP crowdstrike
Gotta love lies on products "0 calorie drink"
Has 1 calorie per 100ml and is 500ml
It’s scary ngl. A bug can cause mass outages and cause panic so fast.
There was no testing, it was a hot patch
yeah
Is there an article on what exactly causes the crash yet?
Driver that is malformed and therefore windows can't load it, windows loads it as one of the first cause it's a kernel level edr
Thanks.
I hv a question
Pick me up some? 
if i update my windows
Right now gonna lead my pc to crowdStrike ?
No
They'll bounce back.
Do U use it?
How
They're huge
Applying the fix will also be a pain in the ass, since you can't really boot the broken machines except for maybe in recovery/safe mode, no?
Outcast if you aren't already affected then you won't be
Safe mode yes
No, unless you actively installed Crowdstrike Falcon in the past.
Which is highly unlikely.
Oh thnx , cuz m scared to update my pc thats why
But if you use bitlocker it sort of a pain right now.
Fun.
Excuse me if it's off-topic, but anyone knows why manage-bde -status does not show any available disk? (of course crowdstrike related on my wife pc... super scary situation :))
even more fun as microsoft are forcing bitlocker on windows 11 pc:s
It's part of their CrowdStrike's EDR, so unless you're using a corporate device it wouldn't affect your machine
should have been tested smh
wait whatttt

💀
yeah and not matter if I use PIN or recovery key .. manage-bde says no disks available 😦
#BUYTHEDIP
Yup
Eeeyyy, it's already going back up. xD
time to buy 🙂
It's not required, but it's the default setting iirc
it is still a mess for when you gonna recover someone computer in IT
So its a plateform which cybersecurity users us it for security ?
Wonder how SysAdmins are doing like matt.
This is a global thing. it only affects companies running Crowdstrike... which is a lot
oh
no it's worldwide if you're company uses CloudStrike Falcon agent.
Sounds like a 3 day weekend to me...
Sheesh
I'm being prayed to in HTB 
Good Morning crowdstrike users Everyone.
Some of my friends already gained 10% on the crowdstrike stocks
Since buying at dip
What are your thoughts on this dibacle
It may depend when your pc was up:
Channel file "C-00000291*.sys" with timestamp of 0527 UTC or later is the reverted (good) version.
Channel file "C-00000291*.sys" with timestamp of 0409 UTC is the problematic version.
Also love what you do
Someone made a mistake, and unfortunately that small mistake caused some damage that will last quite a while for some companies.
yeah would phone into my markets guy, but they use CrowdStrike 😦
Yeah hopefully they don't get in too much trouble cos they happen. Not testing an update is stupid though.
When I get home, calling my accountant
Agreed, but no doubt they'll be fired. Not sure if it was one person or an entire team.
Cancelling 1000's of flights is millions of lost dollars and that's only the airline industry.
Yeah someone's definitely rolling without a head metaphorically.
Thankfully Crowdstrike is protected by their terms of service ..... lolol
#Just3rdPartyRiskThings
haha those terms aren't going to save them legal fees, that's for sure.
Who wants boxes?
Surely patches have to go through a team before deploying though?
Better get that insurance policy out 
blackpoint stonks 
Yeah imagine "nah we're 3rd party, you knew the risks that's on you"
That's the arguement
this is going to be such a selling point for other EDR;s
it's why relying on 3rd parties is bad
How to destroy PR, the company and a lot of jobs.
thanks for coming to my defcon talk
Gave +1 Rep to @steel aspen (current: #438 - 11)
Wait they literally said that??
I have the perfect song for the Crowdstrike situation: https://open.spotify.com/track/5BbBamFTcH8CvM4nITBlzU?si=6gy8Rv6mRt2ssDoVMPkZuQ
CloudStrike's stock was beginning to take a hit since yesterday, but today they took a dip.
They will, say, "in our TOS, you idemnify us"
annnndddd now there is a song about crowdstrike
and tha'ts bascially that
Ouch
That's not going to go down very well.
They gonna lose a lot of clients I think.
I mean I'm not up with PR and all that stuff but yeah
You can't hack a paperweight
Everything can be hacked, worst case, is the rubber hose attack 😄
Same thing happened to McAfee like 7 years ago. It locked up all PCs and took the business down for 4 days while they recovered.
Yeah should've added sarcasm on same line mb
Humans are the weakest links using several metrics, alot of them are not useful hahah
Pebmac hahah or layer 8
Feel like mcafee
Monitor
I guess mouse works also
Or picnic
picnic = problem in chair not in computer. 🤣
I usually go with "Recommend additional training with supervisor."

how many here expect crowdstrike getting sued???
considering lots of money is going down the drain
not to mention all the human lives being lost because of emergency services going down in lots of places
sounds like a solid case to shadow
so I bought ClownStrike during the dip through robinhood and it's making a pretty quick recovery even though there's no easy patch yet.
Yea, it went down for a bit, but going the opposite direction already.
You're prolly not the only "low" buyer. xD
Just sell before the lawsuites hit. ;)
Yeah it'll peak right before then and it'll drop hard I guess 😂
the worst instance of pushing to prod on friday
only good things happen to pushing changes on a friday
creating overtime on the weekends... that's good right??
Oh yea, I'd love working on the weekends.
On an issue that crashes Windows machines globally.
Will be just like a pizzy party hackathon.
mmmm pizza... 🍕
The fix is sort of easy by changing the file name to something else, but having to access all those PCs that use bitlocker is going to be manual work.
Asked my old co-workers how they're dealing with CS outage.... they respond: "Can't talk, dealing with Crowdstrike outage"
Aaaaah I do not miss being there.
He did it...

Big thanks to PCBway: https://www.pcbway.com/
I completely re-designed and re-built my Lenovo Yoga 730-13IKB because the keyboard broke, for the second time. So I took matters into my own hands and put a full mechanical keyboard into it.

Yea, got some contacts in a larger company, their entire network is down 100%.
Iz not a great situation.
there actually comerical laptops with this as a feature
HUH???
It's funny for me, we don't deal with em 
luckly not all companies that use CS falcon immediately pushed the update, so they're still in business.
unlike microsoft
/s
I know my old boss, they wanted the very up to date versions of CS.... oh how that caused issues
yeah they are not very common and quite expensive but they exist... think some clevo laptops have it for example
n-1 gang 💪
Actually I don't think n-1 would prevent anything here
It's a problem with the latest driver, so if you didn't push the update, you'll be fine.
From what I've been reading it was a "content" update and not an actual update to the sensor
Wow
mmmh "DRIVER_OVERRAN_STACK_BUFFER" (DOSB) caused a "Blue Screen of Death" (BSOD) ...see if you play stairway to heaven backwards.... grabbing tin foil now..
All is right in the world now.
Drink all the booze! BSoD all the things!
That's the outcome even IF I don't work at CS 
Hi
hi hi

It depends on how it's written into the contract. There may be liability protection written in to CrowdStrike's SLA/contract with other Orgs
I mean.. MS pushes updates that take down systems quite often.. so... lol
you mean liability will protect them from angry consummers that lost their grandparents because the emergency service numbers got out of service???
Yeah as Toaster mentioned earlier, there's likely an indemnity clause
Let's not go about making up situations
i.e normal people that did not pay crowdstrike but got affected by it
because have a feeling there are tons of those
Funny thing.
I need an online tool for a CTF that ends this evening.
All the websites are down.
We'll see how it plays out, but CrowdStrike is likely covered
"backup and retention policy" is the key. The point of the disk encryption is to prevent physical access for stolen laptops
There will more than likely be Federal/State inquiries, in the US, but this is why disaster response plans are so vital. Not all disasters are physical/in the real world
I asked my old co-worker "On a scale of 1-fucked, how's the situation going?"
He responded...... FUCKED

Isn't that kind of obvious though?
Oh yah, I still find it funny, cause I don't have to deal with it 
Yes
I think this is one of those "looking at the bigger picture" scenarios.
Yes, you're lucky it's not happening to you. Let's lol at it.
But in reality, this is a bigger situation
It's going to be a great trial run for a lot of orgs response and recovery procedures
ouch
In reality the fix is mega easy
but not being able to remote to end users makes it hard
but device physically in front of you = easy fix
gotta love water tabs
Hey anyone's free? discuss about a CTF
which one?
Like a private room
then we can not help you
oh, then what?
i need to know that how can i submit a room ?
@naive notch
if you press back to "Room Creation" you'll see a bunch of articles to help you
😵💫 dont stretch too much
ok
Mmmmm starbursts
what're those 👀
....
Oh, candy
ouchy

same here lol
Not here.... then again, I've only been at work 
yeah, just don't boot 
@molten sky Yo, wanna shoot?
Should I assume everything fixed itself by now and stay home?
ye
good option
loving the crowdstrike humour
Sounds good :3 
@slender scaffold why were you up so early this morning? 
I dont get it
My computer avoided the insanity by not being on during the update ;_;
Hi fluff
What? I usually stay up until midnight then wake up at 4:30
I think I should prepare for the exam
just to check my sanity... kali is based on debian, not ubuntu or some other debian based ? i think my brain don't brain
Ubuntu is one of the flavours
ok... so my sanity is ok
nobody said that... lol
Ubuntu is based on debian too.
but.. to be fair I think we're all a little off...
I went to bed at 10 last night and woke up at 7:30.. lol
Cause that’s my life?! Lol
