HAHAHAHAHAHA. You expect Wininfo.com to be objective? Come on pal. That's like trying to get the average slashdotter to not verbally impale MS on a long rusty nail. If the hole isn't in the kernel or a kernel module, it isn't a "linux security hole." Linux is just a kernel, everything is maintained by separate teams. Blaming the kernel team for a hole in OpenSSH would be like blaming Microsoft for a hole in AOL's software. Linux distributions are just that, distributions. They're complete packages of the kernel plus programs compiled for the linux kernel as opposed to the FreeBSD kernel. They aren't pure operating systems in the sense you think of Windows or MacOS. Nice attempt at trolling, too bad it didn't work.

I could care less whether they're objective or not. The data that they cite proves their case.
