Sun workstations insecure — can be taken over

High-priced workstations running Sun's Solaris (a version of Unix) contain a buffer-overflow insecurity that could allow hackers to take them over, according to a CERT advisory. What's more, Sun does not have a fix. This is pretty funny, considering the past posturing of Sun's Microsoft-obsessed chief executive, Scott "Motormouth" McNealy.
