Ha, my company dodged the bullet. We're so incompetent we didn't ever set up LDAP and SSO in a manner correct enough to be hit by this.
I'm curious. Wouldn't a process to test this update before pushing it out everywhere have been enough too?
Like, isn't this showing that there are a jillion companies with no testing of certain updates?
Like, even virus definition updates should be going through testing before being pushed out.
Crowstrike offers staging like this.
The update ignored the stagings set up by the customers.
I've felt this same combination of relief and shame. It feels like there should be a German word for it.
We switched some months ago, so that bullet flew right by as well. But it would have been really funny with almost all devs on a conference.
