Linux will NEVER be this secure.
At least in Windows you can't enter backspace 28 times to own the system

You actually can't do this on Linux either.

What they were referring to was a bug in the GRUB bootloader, which you can just use a hotkey to get to a console anyway.

>Le ebin backspace meme

OK retard, first of all that's a memory bug with GRUB (which redhat fixed btw just some distros are slow to adopt REHL patches) not a security problem, the attacker would need physical access to the machine in order to exploit it, and if a hacker can sit down in front of your PC you are basically fucked anyway because they can boot whatever OS they want from removable media and root the machine no matter what its running.

You do realize a grub password is optional and if you use that ad your only defense then you are dumb.

For you ignorant king Linux too had and always had a user account system that functions better than windows.

feels good knowing windows isn't so incompetent you can log in as a user just by hitting the backspace key 27 times :^)
