Ukhuseleko lwe-cyber yintsimi ethe yakufumana ukubalasela kumaxesha akutshanje kwiindawo ezihlanganisiweyo.
Nangona kuyinyani ukuba le ngxaki ibisoloko ibalulekile kwiinkampani, iindawo ezintsha, ezinje ngecomputer yelifu, iRhlengware kunye Ukunyibilika kunye nokuchaphazeleka kweSpecter kuphakamise inkxalabo kumanqanaba angazange abonwe ngaphambili.
En Kudliwanondlebe lwamva nje kunye nendawo yeLinux.com, uGreg Kroah-Hartman, umphuhlisi weLinux Kernel, uthethe ngokhuseleko kwiLinux Kernel kunye nendlela abazilungisa ngayo iingxaki zokhuseleko eziye zavela.
Ukhuseleko lokuqala kwiLinux
UGreg Kroah-Hartman, omnye wababethi abanzima kuphuhliso lwe-Linux kernel, unike ingxelo kwiziko leLinux.com ngendlela yokujongana nokulungisa imiba yezokhuseleko.
Yena Uthethe ngendlela abaphatha ngayo kwaye balungisa imiba yezokhuseleko Kwaye oko yena ngokwakhe, kubonakala ngathi ngamanye amaxesha imvelaphi yayo ivela kwiindawo ezininzi ezingalindelekanga.
Umzekelo, uKroah-Hartman walungisa ibug engalunganga ngexesha eladlulayo, kodwa kwiminyaka emithathu kamva iRed Hat yafumanisa ukuba eneneni yayisesichengeni.
Oku kutshatile isitatimende esenziwe nguLinus Torvalds, apho wathi uninzi lweziphene zokhuseleko ziziphene.
Kudliwanondlebe lwevidiyo ye-Q & A kunye neLinux Foundation, uGreg Kroah-Hartman uthetha ngemicimbi ngeMeltdown kunye neSpecter kwaye kutheni iLinux Kernel, ngaphandle kokufumana iintlobo zeebugs ezifumaneka kuyo, ngokokubona kwakhe, ikhuselekile.
USwapnil Bhartiya unike i-Linux Foundation udliwanondlebe olufutshane kunye noGreg Kroah-Hartman, oqhuba "ishishini eliphambili" ngexesha lokungabikho kukaLinus.
Umphuhlisi wekernel uqinisekisile ukuba ukhuseleko lweLinux ngumba obaluleke kakhulu kwaye oko kubaluleke kakhulu kuphuhliso lwalo.
Oku kungenxa yokuba "iLinux inika amandla umhlaba." Umzekelo, abantu abaninzi ngakumbi bagcina idatha ebuthathaka kwii-smartphones zabo kwaye abafuni mntu wesithathu ukuba ayifumane.
Xa ebuzwa ukuba loluphi ungqimba lwekernel olwalumkhathaza kakhulu, uKroah-Hartman wabiza iMeltdown kunye neSpecter bugs.
Uxanduva kakhulu kubaphuhlisi
Okhathaza abaphuhlisi kukuba kufuneka balungise into abangayiboniyo kwindawo yabo Uxanduva, oko kukuthi izixhobo zekhompyutha.
Ngokwesiqhelo usebenza kwikernel ejikeleze "ibhokisi emnyama ye-CPU" ujikeleze. Kodwa ii-CPUs ziya kusebenzisa ngakumbi nangakumbi iindlela zokuphucula ukusebenza. La maqhinga ngamanye amaxesha ayokuwa ezinyaweni zabaphuhlisi, kwaye i-kernel kuya kufuneka ilungise ezi ngxaki.
Ngokubanzi, U-Kroah-Hartman wayeqinisekile ukuba undoqo ukhuseleke ngakumbi. Phakathi kwezinye izinto, iziseko zovavanyo eziye zaphuhliswa kwiminyaka edlulileyo ziya kunceda ukuthintela iincukuthu ukuba zingaveli xa isitya se-kernel sifikelela eluntwini.
Inyani yokuba ii-fuzzers ezinje nge-Google's Syzcaller zifumana inani le-kernel bugs inokuchazwa ngenxa yokuba abaphandi bezokhuseleko banamhlanje bavavanya amanqanaba anzulu e-kernel yeebugs ezingazange zavavanywa ngaphambili.
Kula manqanaba kukho iimpazamo maxa wambi esele zikho ixesha elide. Ukuza kuthi ga ngoku, bambalwa kuphela abantu abajonge le khowudi.
Ke uKroah-Hartman ngekhe athi "umhlaba uyatsha", kodwa enkosi kuvavanyo oluntsonkothileyo, abaphuhlisi ngoku balunge kakhulu ekufumaneni i-kernel bugs.
Inkqubo Ugxininise ukuba "benza iimvavanyo ezingaphezulu" ukuqinisekisa ukhuseleko oluphezulu lwe-Linux kernel, kwaye kumjikelo wokugqibela wokulungiswa kwezokhuseleko basebenze iinyanga ezine bodwa kuba babanjiwe.
Kodwa emva kwenkqubo enzima, uyavuma ukuba "izinto ngokuqinisekileyo zijonge phezulu."
Iindaba ezimnandi zabaqeqeshi kukuba le nkxalabo inyukayo ivula amathuba emisebenzi, njengoko iingcali zokhuselo lwe-cyber ziya kufunwa ngakumbi emva koko.
