| #1 "The IP addresses in question are … six IP addresses apart from each other," iDefense said in its statement. "Considering this proximity, it is possible that the two attacks are one and the same, and that the organizations targeted in the [recent] Silicon Valley attacks have been compromised since July." The quote is total nonsense. What difference does being on the same network segment make from one VM to another? Unless the VM was compromised. Theo de Raadt has been warning for three years the underlying x86 hardware makes Virtual machine ( VM )compromises easy and nearly undetectable and impossible to prevent. The security issue may well be the Google attack but a far more serous underlying issue is the compromise of VMs going undetected for months, as de Raadt said they could. |
