so, there was an issue with found GOV exploit in RSA, as they reported - Oracle is well known with it client un-friendly policy, as even corp client databases were compromised - so even last shouted wannacry malware appeared in linux just in week ago then win - and if GOV have possibilities to build exploit in RSA so they able to make it with open-source mb…
