Crowdstrike published a faulty update. Causes Windows to bluescreen. Driver is C-00000291*.sys. Will cause worldwide outages. Thread follows, I suspect.
I am obtaining a copy of the driver to see if malicious or bad coding, if anybody else checking let me know.
If anybody is wondering the impact of the Crowdstrike thing - it’s really bad. Machines don’t boot.
The recovery is boot in safe mode, log in as local admin and delete things - which isn’t automateable. Basically Crowdstrike will be in very hot water.
@GossiTheDog killed prod in multiple steelmills all over the country. I hope they have a very good insurance.
@mpldr @GossiTheDog This is exactly why no ICS programmer wants IT to touch the system.
