ESR: Let SCO hang itselfESR: Let SCO hang itselfPosted Aug 25, 2003 17:40 UTC (Mon) by strombrg (guest, #2178)Parent article: ESR: Let SCO hang itself Rumor has it that SCO has an ftp server up that's vulnerable to a remote-root exploit. If someone cracks it, SCO will be able to say "Look at those mean linux people attacking us again!" and "Look how insecure linux is. You wouldn't have this problem if you bought our products..." Further, rumor has it that someone has been trying to alert SCO to this problem, and SCO has been deftly ignoring it. The question then is, "Has SCO intentionally left that vulnerability, so they can spread FUD with righteous indignation?" Seems like maybe they want us to hang ourselves. If you're interested in some more information on this, check out an archive of the full-disclosure mailing list.
