[QUOTE="Analoguesat, post: 1111857, member: 176362"] Dell desktops, laptops, and tablets built since 2009 and running Windows can be exploited to grant rogue users and malware system-administrator-level access to the computers. We're told this amounts of hundreds of millions of machines that can be completely hijacked. This is made possible by five security vulnerabilities in Dell's dbutil_2_3.sys driver, which it bundles with its PCs Full story: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.theregister.com/2021/05/04/dell_driver_flaw/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
