Did you already forget about log4j?
1 comments

log4j is a once in a decade event, while vulnerable Microsoft software is more like once a month.
Zero day actively explored events are not a once a month thing. Are you trying to argue there’s no Linux vulnerabilities monthly??
No, as we both know, there are vulnerabilities on Linux, like log4j.

And I also did not say that zero days are a once a month thing, I said that vulnerable Microsoft software is a once a month thing.

There are monthly security updates for packages for our Linux systems too.
Can you give me a list? I bet most users are unaffected, but I wonder.
Log4j is a Java thing divorced from the operating system running it.
SharePoint isn't an operating system either
This was about open source. Not Linux.
