Re:THIS DATA MIGHT (Win7 vs. Linux, & MORE)
You do realise you are comparing Win 7, which has been out for 2 years, against the 2.6.x kernel which has been around for 8 years, right?
Lets looks at Windows during that timeframe (keep in mind that the stats only go back to 2003, when the 2.6.x kernel was released):
Win 7: 8% (5/65) - highly critical vulnerabilities unpatched
Vista: 8% (8/147) - highly critical vulnerabilities unpatched
XP: 12% (42/342) - highly critical vulnerabilities unpatched
Server 2008: 4% (4/130) - highly critical vulnerabilities unpatched
Server 2003: 6% (19/295) - highly critical vulnerabilities unpatchedSumming up: 8% (78/979) - highly critical vulnerabilities unpatched
Against the Linux 2.6.x kernel: 6% (17/265) - less critical vulnerabilities unpatched
So windows has 4.5x as many unpatched and 3.7x as many in total and has far more critical vulnerabilities left unpatched.
btw:
Highly critical means that the system can be completely comprimised if someone exploits it - there are just no known expoits of it in the wild.
Less critical basically means you have to be local and lets face it, if they have local access you're screwed anyway.And for good measure, lets compare Linux to win 7 in 2010:
Win7: http://secunia.com/advisories/product/27467/?task=statistics_2010
47 advisories
11% unpatched
Criticality:
Highly: 40%
Moderately: 17%
Less: 36%
Not: 6%
Loction:
Remote: 55%
Local Network: 11%
Local: 34%Linux: http://secunia.com/advisories/product/2719/?task=statistics_2010
47 advisories (same as windows)
4% unpatched (almost 3x better than windows)
Criticality:
Highly: 0% (walks all over windows here)
Moderately: 4% (more than 4x better here)
Less: 47%
Not: 49%
Loction:
Remote: 9% (again, walks all over windows)
Local Network: 2% (much better than windows again)
Local: 89%In short:
Linux had ZERO remote automated system exploits - all remote exploits required user interaction.
The vast majority of Linux exploits required local access and even then the impact was fairly low.
The majority of Win 7 exploits had significant system impact.
The majority of Win 7 exploits could be triggered remotely, with many requiring no user interaction.The winner?
Shear numbers: inconclusive - both have the same number
Criticality: Linux wins here easily - 96% were rated less critical or lower, compared to Win 7's 57% rated at moderate or higher
Locality: Again, Linux wins hands down - the vast majority are local exploits and the majority of Win 7 exploits are remote
Time to patch: ?
Exploits in the wild: ? but I'd suspect Linux would win given that most require local access to achieve... -

"Fact is, "Windows" it vulnerable as hell not only because of their own crap, but the crap of others" - by erroneus (253617) on Friday April 22, @07:12PM (#35911156) Homepage
Ahem: Overall, Windows 7's LESS "vulnerable" than Linux is (see above & below)...
(The apps of others', such as Adobe products, doesn't help MS, & yes, they're making a "good move" on this... I agree!)

THAT? Again - That's rougly 3.5++x as many as Windows 7 has that are unpatched
Also, AGAIN:
THAT'S ONLY THE LINUX KERNEL MIND YOU, not the entire 'gamut/array' of what actually comes in a Linux distro (such as the attendant GUI, Windows managers, browsers, etc. that ship in distros too that have bugs, and yes, THEY DO), THAT ADDS EVEN MORE BUGS that COMPOUNDS THAT # EVEN MORE!

Funniest part:
All those "local exploits", once a bug gets "inside" (via email or bogus link clicked on by a user, part of the "don't be stupid" stuff I noted above under Windows' list?)?
They can & often DO, become REMOTE EXPLOITS, easily enough, because they get used by malware once it's "invited inside" by users...
Don't think THAT can't & doesn't happen on Linux variants as well (think ANDROID, for example)...
The only reason most Linux distros aren't exploited is n

Funniest part:
All those "local exploits", once a bug gets "inside" (via email or bogus link clicked on by a user, part of the "don't be stupid" stuff I noted above under Windows' list?)?
They can & often DO, become REMOTE EXPLOITS, easily enough, because they get used by malware once it's "invited inside" by users...
Don't think THAT can't & doesn't happen on Linux variants as well (think ANDROID, for example)...

THAT's 3.5++x LESS THAN IS PRESENT ON THE LINUX 2.6x KERNEL ALONE! See below...
(Toss on the rest of what goes into a Linux distro? That # goes "up, Up, UP & AWAY...", bigime, "increasing that lead, that Linux has", lol, in more unpatched known security bugs present that is (a dubious honor/win, lol, to say the least!))

Compare a "*NIX/Open SORES" OS in Linux's "latest/greatest"?:

THAT? Again - That's rougly 3.5++x as many as Windows 7 has that are unpatched
Also, AGAIN:
THAT'S ONLY THE LINUX KERNEL MIND YOU, not the entire 'gamut/array' of what actually comes in a Linux distro (such as the attendant GUI, Windows managers, browsers, etc. that ship in distros too that have bugs, and yes, THEY DO), THAT ADDS EVEN MORE BUGS that COMPOUNDS THAT # EVEN MORE!
APK
P.S.=> So, so much for "Windows is less secure than Linux" stuff you see around here on
/., eh?(It gets even WORSE for 'Linuxdom' when you toss on ANDROID (yes, it's a LINUX variant too), because it's being shredded on the security-front lately, unfortunately)
BOTTOM-LINE:
What this all comes down to, is all the "Pro-*NIX propoganda straight outta pravda" practically doesn't stand up very well against concrete, verifiable & visible facts now, does it? Nope... apk

Let's pay attention 2 OS' (Linux 2.6x vs. Win7)
Microsoft ENTIRE "business development suite": (only 5 KNOWN unpatched security vulnerabilities, vs. 18 in the Linux KERNEL ONLY (which is, after all, ONLY A FRACTION OF WHAT'S POSSIBLE IN AN ENTIRE LINUX DISTRO))
