The vulnerability – CVE-2022-0847 – was discovered by Max Kellermann in April 2021, but it took another few months for him to figure out what was actually happening. Kellermann explained that the vulnerability affects Linux Kernel 5.8 and later versions but was fixed in Linux 5.16.11, 5.15.25 and 5.10.102. “It all started a year ago with a support ticket about corrupt files. A customer complained that the access logs they downloaded could not be decompressed....

FX on Hulu is finally a thing and the convergence of the award-magnet cable network and streaming service for TV lovers is getting a big push with the premiere of Devs, the television debut of author, screenwriter, and director Alex Garland. It’s a tech-world thriller that explores the notion of consumers’ cult-like devotion to brand names, and the equally cult-like existence led by some of the biggest names in Silicon Valley....

UPDATE [Wednesday, November 9 at 12:10am ET] The article has been updated with an analyst quote in the fourth paragraph. Asian trade publication DigiTimes known for its notoriously mixed track record, reported Wednesday, citing a Commercial Times report, that Apple is asking parts suppliers to delay a portion of their shipments for the fourth quarter of 2011 to the first quarter of 2012. The report blames the decision on the shortages in the supply chain and, interestingly, lower-than-expected pre-sales of iPhone 4S:...

Disney’s box office success in recent years suggests the company doesn’t really need to make original movies (not live-action ones, anyway). The Mouse House has expanded its media empire to include everything from the Marvel Cinematic Universe to the Star Wars franchise, Pixar Animation Studios, and even The Muppets over the last ten years or so. With so many popular - and profitable - brands under their control now, original live-action features haven’t exactly been a priority for Disney....

Disney’s Jungle Cruise movie is coming soon and here’s everything we know about it, including its release date, cast, and more. Jungle Cruise has been years in the making. Back in 2011, it was believed Toy Story super duo Tim Allen and Tom Hanks would star before exiting the project. Somewhere along the way, the Allen-Hanks version of Jungle Cruise was scrapped and Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson’s casting ushered in the need for a new script, cast, and everything in between....

Following the announcement that Apple will release software updates to the public on Wednesday, the company is now accepting apps compatible with iOS 14, iPadOS 14, watchOS 7, and tvOS 14 on the App Store.

Disney has launched its plus platform where eventually, you can watch any on-demand videos and Tv shows. However, many users have reported seeing Disney+ Blue/Black/Green Screen Errors and are clueless about fixing them. Disney is actively working to fix these issues on its platform. As more and more people join their on-demand video subscription service, more such minor Disney Plus problems are booming up. There are scenarios where users see nothing except a blue or green screen....

While Disney has always created animated features, the 2000s in particular were filled with a large number of movies that fall into this category. Because of this, we decided to take a look back at all the best animated Disney films from this era. Rather than picking our own favorites, however, we decided to turn to the ranking system on IMDb. The popular movie and entertainment website has assigned every single movie a star score on a scale of 1 to 10, based on the votes of registered users....

Disney has confirmed new release dates for two of its upcoming live-action retellings. All throughout this weekend, the annual D23 expo is going on, and as usual, the news coming out of it so far has been quite interesting. Just some of the stories thus far have included the blockbuster announcement of Hugh Jackman as Scar in the live-action Lion King remake, the official premiere date for the Marvel’s Spider-Man cartoon on Disney XD, and the confirmation that Marvel and Star Wars characters are set to appear in Wreck-It Ralph 2....

The current system for getting into Disneyland’s Star Wars-themed Galaxy’s Edge is working well for the theme park. When Galaxy’s Edge first opened, Disneyland set up an online system for guests that allowed them to request Galaxy’s Edge reservations weeks in advance for specific four-hour periods to visit the land with Disney hotel guests guaranteed access. The reservations were free, but were also limited, meaning not everyone could get in....

If your Windows 2008 Server is running DNS Server Services and uses root hints to resolve Internet host name, it may fail to resolve queries for host names in certain top-level domains. When this happens, the problem will continue until the DNS Server cache is cleared or the DNS Server service is restarted. When the problem is occurring, an NSLOOKUP command issued for an affected name will return the error “server failed”....

Microsoft recently released the first Windows 10X emulator, allowing developers to get an early look at the new operating system designed for dual-screen devices. As it turns out, eager developers have already extracted the OS image and installed it on real hardware — including a 12-inch MacBook. Windows 10X is a variant of Windows 10 that’s been reimagined for dual-screen and foldable devices, as The Verge explains. The operating system is on track to be released later this year, and will come preinstalled on devices such as the dual-screen Surface Neo....

What is DevSecOps? DevSecOps is a methodology that merges development (Dev) with security (Sec) and operations (Ops). It aims to introduce security into all phases of the software development lifecycle, including planning, development, building, testing, release, delivery, deployment, operations and monitoring. DevSecOps facilitates rapid and secure software development through automated continuous integration (CI) and continuous delivery (CD) cycles. However, DevSecOps requires teamwork to be truly effective despite the reliance on automation tools....

Ask any action movie fan who their favorite fictional character is and they’ll likely name John McClane within a couple of seconds. It’s Bruce Willis’ most famous role, and that’s for a good reason. In every Die Hard movie, McClane is the reluctant hero. He’s never expecting to get thrust into action – he might be barefoot at his estranged wife’s office Christmas party or hungover and suspended from the force – but when he is, he always pulls through and saves the day....

Disney CEO Bob Iger knows the company released too many Star Wars movies too quickly, but isn’t worried about the future of the franchise. When the Mouse House announced its plans to release a new Star Wars film every year following its purchase of Lucasfilm in 2012, the news got a pretty mixed response. As much as audiences love the galaxy far, far away, the first two Star Wars trilogies were released over nearly forty years....

Disney Gallery Star Wars: The Mandalorian This new series will give you an exclusive behind the scenes look at how The Mandalorian series is created. Think of it as getting “extras” like behind the scenes footage and more that you get on DVD or Blu Ray’s or iTunes Extras when purchasing movies from iTunes or other streaming services. In a statement the company says the following: Following the show’s premiere, you can expect a new episode to stream every Friday on Disney Plus....

Disney will continue making R-rated Deadpool movies after their acquisition of Fox, but they may not be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Ryan Reynolds got a proper iteration of the Merc with a Mouth to the big screen in 2016, and gave Fox a lucrative R-rated superhero franchise in the process. But, with Disney’s $71 billion acquisition of Fox’s film and TV assets nearing completion, Deadpool’s future has repeatedly been called into question....

Disney World’s Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser Hotel will offer guests unique vacations. With only days to go as of this writing before Disney’s Orlando, Florida Star Wars park is set to open, Star Wars fans are still adjusting to the offerings of the Galaxy’s Edge attractions at Anaheim’s Disneyland Park. Having been the first Star Wars park to open back in May of this year, the Disneyland Galaxy’s Edge attraction initially brought in hordes of Star Wars fans eager for an immersive experience on the planet of Batuu....

Apple’s App Store is currently taking approximately four times more revenue generated by the 200 highest grossing apps in comparison to the Android Market. According to research firm Distimo’s recently published 2011 report, a significantly increasing portion of app downloads are originating in China. Likely further increased by Apple’s recent announcement to begin accepting App Store payments in Chinese Yuan, Distimo said when comparing the United States and China, 30 percent of downloads are coming from China....
