Hacking Mac OS X: too easy!

Interessanti considerazioni sulla sicurezza dei Mac:

Dino Dai Zovi, an independent security professional in the financial services industry and co-author of The Mac Hacker's Handbook, demonstrated to a packed room at the SOURCE Boston conference how to defeat Mac OS X by gaining access to its root memory. A few lines of arbitrary code will enable any attacker to take over a computer, establish a TCP connection and download additional malicious code. Dai Zovi illustrated his technique by hacking into an Apple iSight camera to take photos of himself.

"Steve Jobs' fairy dust only protects against the most naive attackers," Dai Zovi said. "Writing exploits for [Microsoft] Vista is hard work. Writing exploits for Mac is a lot of fun."

Ma non erano intrinsecamente sicuri?
