Dirty Cow (CVE-2016-5195)

Beware - Dirty Cow is a local privilege escalation vuln just publicly announced.  How bad is this?  Very... this provides root access!  Check out the following video for description:


Not good right?  No worries... CentOS/Redhat will have a patch.  Ummmm... not yet:


Thankfully, the ESPO Systems EU Team, led by Adrian Nykiel, has your back.  He has built the bugfix into the ESPO Systems Forcepoint Virtual Proxy.



In summary, as seen above, ESPO is blessed to have many Security Studs on-board.  Contact your Sales Pro to arrange for a free consultation.
