It is reported that on July 19, after the Sensor of CrowdStrike Falcon was updated, the kernel driver file csagent.sys caused a blue screen on the Windows systems of a large number of users around the world. In addition to the system blue screen, Microsoft365 applications and services were also interrupted, affecting enterprises and users around the world. It is worth noting that this crash did not affect GNU/Linux distributions and Apple macOS system devices. According to the international analysis agency Forest, manual repair requires deleting damaged files, etc., which is time-consuming, and some large customers of "CrowdStrike" may manage millions of computers, and it may take several days or longer to complete the repair work.

The agency believes that the operating system is the cornerstone of the IT system and an important "foundation" supporting the digital infrastructure. The Microsoft blue screen incident reflects the necessity of autonomous and controllable operating systems. Domestic operating systems have achieved important results in high reliability and other aspects. Taking Huawei's Hongmeng OS as an example, the Hongmeng kernel has no root permissions, which improves the system security from the source.
