Blame the dev who pressed “Deploy” without vetifying the config file wasn’t full of 0’s or testing it in Sandbox first.
If the company makes it possible for an individual developer to do this, it’s the company’s fault.
That’s not how any of this worked. Also not how working in a large team that develops for thousands of clients works. It wasn’t just one dev that fucked up here.
Crowd Strike Falcon uses a signed boot driver. They don’t want to wait for MS to get around to signing a driver if there’s a zero day they’re trying to patch. So they have an empty driver with null pointers to the meat of a real boot driver. If you fat finger a reg key, that file only containing the 9C character, points to another null pointer in a different file and you end up getting a non bootable system as the whole driver is now empty.
If you don’t understand what I just said here’s some folk that spent good time and effort to explain it.
