Windows 10源代碼慘遭外泄
微軟公司近日確認(rèn),Windows 10系統(tǒng)的部分原代碼已在網(wǎng)絡(luò)上流出。泄露出的部分包括一般情況下不可見的一些軟件元素,因此,此次泄露也給黑客提供了一個(gè)發(fā)現(xiàn)和探索Windows 10系統(tǒng)安全隱患的機(jī)會。 此次泄漏最初是由英國科技網(wǎng)站The Register報(bào)道的,該網(wǎng)站將泄露的文件稱為“一個(gè)巨大的寶藏”。流出的部分既包括了USB和Wi-Fi模塊的代碼,也包括了Windows 10和Windows Server 2016的完整未發(fā)布版本。The Register表示,這批源代碼是于今年3月從微軟流出的。 不過科技網(wǎng)站The Verge卻反駁了上述的部分說法。The Verge表示,此次泄露的源代碼“相對很少”。很多流出的代碼之前就已經(jīng)在微軟外部流通了。這些源代碼作為微軟代碼包的一部分,經(jīng)常會在微軟的開發(fā)伙伴和其它客戶之間分享。 然而有一些令人擔(dān)憂的證據(jù)顯示,這些源代碼有可能是黑客侵入微軟的網(wǎng)絡(luò)后盜走的。The Verge指出,本周在英國有兩名男性因?yàn)樯嫦忧秩胛④浘W(wǎng)絡(luò)而被警方逮捕。美國科技網(wǎng)站Ars Technica也接到了未證實(shí)的報(bào)道稱,微軟今年三月曾遭到黑客入侵。 這些流出的文件最早出現(xiàn)在一個(gè)名叫Beta Archive的網(wǎng)站上,該網(wǎng)站主要收集已被棄用或不完整的軟件系統(tǒng)。不過流出后不久,這些文件便在Beta Archive上被刪除了。(財(cái)富中文網(wǎng)) 譯者:樸成奎 |
Microsoft has confirmed that a portion of the source code for Windows 10 has leaked online. The leak, containing software elements not normally visible to the public, may represent an opportunity for hackers to uncover and exploit security weaknesses. The leak was originally reported by U.K. tech site The Register, which described the leaked files as “a massive trove” including both code for USB and Wi-Fi modules, and full unreleased builds of Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016. The Register claimed the trove was stolen from Microsoft as recently as March. However, The Verge has contradicted part of that assessment, claiming that the leak is “relatively minor.” Much of the leaked material has already circulated outside of Microsoft, as part of code packages regularly shared with development partners and other customers. However, there is worrisome evidence that the content came from hacks of Microsoft’s network. The Verge points to the arrest this week of two men in England accused of hacking Microsoft, and Ars Technica received unconfirmed reports of a hack on Microsoft in March. The files have since been removed from Beta Archive, a collection of abandoned or incomplete software, where they originally surfaced. |
