This would be fate of all government mandated backdoors.
- Only for those it would happen in 8s.
What's the CVE score?
Sorry. Bad joke on our pain...
- This made my day!
  Edit: also, this is from 17-APR, and it's the first I'm seeing this. I wish I could say I've been under a rock, but I was literally looking for, and reading, multiple articles on this near daily, and missed this...
Patch Tuesday is far worse. 8 days is well within the 30 day window they use for releasing exploit fixes. So it isn't even weird. This stuff happens all the time if you don't push security fixes as soon as possible. They prefer to have a nice little monthly day to make the life of companies easier, but it's highly unsafe.
