Why is Microsoft defending Crowdstrike?

[โ€“] thurstylark@lemm.ee 44 points 4 months ago

My guess: Because they reviewed and signed the kernel space code which calls code that is unreviewed and unsigned (or, at the very least, pulls directly from files that are unreviewed and unsigned without proper validation or error checking), calling out CrowdStrike's failure puts them on the hook too.
