Microsoft blocks Linux installations Software king of the world Microsoft has blocked a flaw in Windows RT which allowed the users to install non-Redmond approved operating systems on Windows RT tablets. Microsoft has closed a backdoor left open in Windows RT even though the OS is pretty much dead in the water as Vole can’t be bothered with it any more. This vulnerability in ARM-powered locked down Windows devices was left by Redmond programmers during the development process. Exploiting this flaw, a hacker could boot operating systems of his/her choice, including Android or GNU/Linux. http://www.techeye.net/business/micr...-installations |
