Jaded Burnout posted:This one's mine according to Intel. Yeah, this is because you have Sandy Bridge-E and the HEDT/server socket chips are out of step with the regular desktop and laptop chips by 1 generation. Sandy Bridge Socket 1155 is 2000-series, but Socket 2011 is 3000-series along with Ivy Bridge Socket 1155. Ivy Bridge Socket 2011 is 4000-series along with Haswell Socket 1150, and then Haswell socket 2011-3 is 5000-series like Broadwell which didn't even have a full desktop release... It's a mess. Thanks, Intel!

A ticket came in requesting alternative QLogic Card Specs. No problem pull up the website for our major networking communications provider and ... QLogic's site is down due to a mis-configured firewall.

They've always had codenames like that, but after a while they started leaking to the public and marketing got ahold of it and made it lovely and annoying like marketing aways does.

AND BEFORE YOU SAY I SHOULD HAVE BEEN READING MY THREADS, IT IS NOT MY RESPONSIBILITY TO PAY ATTENTION TO ANY OF THE 6 PAGES THAT HAVE ALREADY BEEN MADE REGARDING THIS. i'M cc'ING MY MANAGER AND YOUR MANAGER AND THE ceo JUST TO BE SURE THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN.

Jaded Burnout posted:When you say "in between" do you mean inclusive? As 3000 series are Sandy Bridge. There was a tool that someone wrote to find out what is affected. I will try to find it again and edit this post with it. Edit: Bear in mind that nothing is gospel at the moment, there is so much speculation and chaos we might as well be running around in Hyboria being chased by giant dick eating lizards. Edit: Oh God, the exploits are starting to appear, AMD and Arm are also affected it seems? http://www.theregister.co.uk/2018/01/04/intel_amd_arm_cpu_vulnerability/ Also, it looks like the CEO of Intel dumped as much of his stock as possible just before Christmas. There is still an embargo on the actual information, but now I have seen some sources that all chips from the Pentium Pro onwards are affected, Jesus.  From that article: quote:Finally, if you are of the opinion that us media types are being hysterical about this design blunder, check this out: CERT recommends throwing away your CPU and buying an non-vulnerable one to truly fix the issue. lmao Pretty good article here if anyone wants to nerd out about it: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2018/01/whats-behind-the-intel-design-flaw-forcing-numerous-patches/ Update: Just got some info from a security tech at one of our vendors.

my cat is norris posted:It's already been vetoed. "What if other people learn to love it? "Learn to love the taste of my poo poo"  User's account is expired. They call to ask why they can't log in. I tell them their account is expired, and we need a manager to give us a new expiry date (or tell us the person is now permanent) to re-enable the account. This is our security policy. First they tried to play sympathy, saying they were actively supporting students. Then they tried to play urgency, saying assignments would be arriving in a week for them to mark. Then they tried to say it was too difficult to get ahold of their supervisor, they were still on vacation. Told them they should get on trying to contact their manager, because it takes us about 30 seconds to re-enable the account once we get the okay. "Well can I just give you my new expiry date?"

*** This is a system generated email. Please do not respond to this message. *** Dear Customer, This email is to inform you that your ticket has been updated. Ticket Title: Fortigate stopped responding Ticket Status: Researching Updated by xxxxxxxxxx at 1/4/2018 11:01:25 AM Hello xxxxxx Thank you for taking my call today. The unit became irresponsiv Looking into the crashlog we did not see any clue related to the non responsiveness of the Fortigate. -The system log shows high cpu or high memory -The unit does not seems to have been rebooted for more than a year, which can cause some processes to hang. In this case only a reboot can solve the issue.

Usually networking equipment wouldn't accept code to run from arbitrary sources, I think? So it would need to be combined with another vulnerability as a manner of privilege escalation.

Description: User is having issues with blocked website. Wants to speak to someone about it. (https://www.foxnews.com) I called the guy and was treated to a 15 minute tirade about fake news. I work for a local government, and he was asking me things like " which one of those liberals at city hall told yall to block fox news? " " I can get to fake rear end CNN just fine, but not my fox news. " " I've been here 15 years and never have I seen such bias"  and so on and so on. Once I managed to talk him down off the ledge, we determine that his aircard had dropped off because he was at a lift station in the middle of nofuckingwhere. My only complaint about working here is the helpdesk is staffed by university interns and they are completely useless. When they actually can be arsed to fill in a ticket with information like phone numbers and location they just dump everything into the network group's queue.

So it would need to be combined with another vulnerability as a manner of privilege escalation. Most likely. I know of a couple devices that do allow easy break out (as a matter of design) to the underlying OS the appliance runs on, but for the most part your Cisco/Juniper/Extreme switches won't generally be susceptible to Meltdown or Spectre without something worse being wrong. Sickening posted:Palo Alto is already sending me warning emails with new patches. This makes sense since it's really just a bunch of interrelated applications running on top of <open source OS>. Most IDS/IPS (and some firewalls) are likely similar. Proteus Jones fucked around with this message at 21:46 on Jan 4, 2018 |
