Few days back eEye Digital Security Inc. found a serious flaw in McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator. McAfee had silently fixed the flaw about 6 months back and did not tell its customers. eEye has its Intrusion Prevention software “Blink” that competes McAfee IPS product.
Guess what … eEye demonstrated the exploitation of this ePolicy flaw to “The Associated Press” by creating a file on the computer of a reporter. What a way to compete and marketing!
