Update: While we talk about Huawei Kernel Self Protection (HKSP) I make mention of the authors statement that he is unrelated to Huawei. Turns out this statement, despite a commit date of Friday wasn't pushed until Monday morning so it was not original. Further information has also come out showing that the author is a Huawei employee, so the relationship is much closer than I believe it to be. ~zi

It was a busy week, Microsofts Github account was hacked, Centurylink Routers have no security, and multiple interactionless RCEs in Samsung phones.
