> What are the chances that a Mullvad user is going to happen across this blog post? It's not as if the odds of new would-be exploiters seeing it are any better. It helps that the people who are at the most risk tend to have their ear to the ground already because they know what's at stake. When the risks are this high you have to assume that it's already being actively exploited. That means that already there are more attackers who know about the vulnerability than there are users who know about the mitigation. All you can do at that point is let as many users as possible know how to protect themselves while Mullvad figures out how to fix the issue on their end, writes and puts out the update, and the remaining users get around to updating their systems. You can't save everyone, but hopefully you at least gave some people the chance to save themselves. |
