USB-Tastatur kapert Linux-Kern
ChromeOS-Entwickler Kees Cook hat beim Experimentieren mit USB-Endgeräten zwölf Schwachstellen im Code des Linux Kernels entdeckt, der für die Interaktion mit HIDs (Human Interface Devices) zuständig ist. Der gravierendste Fehler kann dabei eine Speicherverletzung auslösen, wenn das USB-Gerät mehr "Report ID" Felder generiert, als der Kernel erwartet.

With $7.17 Billion Nokia Buy, Microsoft Brings Its Trojan Horse Home
Microsoft is paying about $5 billion to buy a majority of Nokia’s cellphone business, while shelling out another $2.17 billion to license the struggling Finnish company’s patent portfolio. And none of this should surprise you.
With this $7.17 billion play, Microsoft has redoubled its efforts to compete with Apple and Google in the smartphone game, nabbing a handset maker that can more closely combine its Windows Phone operating system with the hardware that runs it, and expanding an already massive smartphone-related patent portfolio that can jockey with rivals in other ways.
