Microsoft recently detected a security exploit that could allow attackers to bypass a core security feature on computers running on macOS . Dubbed "Migraine", the vulnerability can be used to sidestep Apple's System Integrity Protection (SIP) on macOS — a feature that protects parts of the operating system related to system integrity by restricting access to certain files — and install malware on a victim's computer. Microsoft warned Apple about the security flaw and the Cupertino company has patched the flaw with its latest security update. According to details shared by Microsoft in a blog post , the "Migraine" security exploit relies on Migration Assistant, a tool provided by Apple to allow users to transfer files from one Mac to another or from a Windows PC to a Mac. The Migration Assistant app from Apple has unrestricted root access that allows it to perform its data transfer function, and security researchers at Microsoft leveraged the special 'e...

The Indian government is poised to deny crucial funding for Anil Agarwal's chip venture, Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday, a setback to the billionaire's ambition to build India's 'own Silicon Valley.' The authorities are likely to inform the venture between Vedanta and Taiwan's Foxconn that it won't get incentives to make 28-nanometer chips, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter. The venture's application seeking billions in government assistance hasn't met the criteria set by the government, the report said. The project is still in search of a technology partner and a manufacturing-grade technology license for the construction of 28nm chips, it added. India's technology ministry, Vedanta and Foxconn did not immediately respond to Reuters requests for comment. The setback comes at a time when Agarwal's metals and mining conglomerate is already grappling with reducing its significant debt load. Last year in Septembe...
