网络安全专家最近指出,Linux操作系统软件压缩资料库中存在的一个安全漏洞将使所有使用这一操作系统的计算机非常容易遭到攻击,而每个版本的Linux都在使用这种软件压缩库。美国安全数字公司主管大卫·莱克斯基称,这一软件漏洞可以导致zlib压缩资料库中的内存管理功能失效,从而为网上黑客发动攻击打开方便之门。专家还指出,其它一些和Linux一样使用开放资源部件的操作系统都存在这一问题,只是严重程度不同而已。这一漏洞是由一家名为红帽子的Linux软件开发公司发现的,该公 Network security experts recently pointed out that a security vulnerability in the Linux operating system software compression database will make all computers that use the operating system vulnerable to attack, and that software compression libraries are used on every version of Linux. David Lackskey, head of U.S. security numbers, said the software flaw could void the memory management capabilities of the zlib compression repository, opening up the door to hacking online attacks. Experts also point out that other operating systems that use open-source components like Linux have the same problem, just in terms of severity. The vulnerability was discovered by a Linux software development company called Red Hat, the company
