    there's a cocoa pods hole in the apple ecosystem which allowed for more
    than a decade anyone in the world the permission to inject into any of over three million ios or macos applications any code they wanted to inject.

    does this security hole also exist in the windows or linux ecosystem? https://www.darkreading.com/cloud-security/apple-cocoapods-bugs-expose-apps-code-injection


    Translation:

    "Nick Cine" wants to troll the Apple newsgroups about a hole,
    which "Nick" hopes to claim does not exist in other operating
    systems.

    "Nick Cine" first wishes to check whether this hole does or
    does not exist in other operating systems (to avoid the risk
    of looking like a fool).

    Curiously, the above is also classic Arlen behavior.

    And to answer his empty "question": Yes indeed, all other platforms are susceptible to this issue:

    https://www.itweb.co.za/article/open-source-vulnerabilities-remain-unpatched-for-decades/wbrpO7gPwGdMDLZn

    But we're all supposed to ignore this reality, because: troll.
