I'm going to be a pedant, and point out it was an unsecured box, with a penguin in it, which knocked the controls.

Weird way to say the on-board computer is Linux based, but ok. Link to the CVE?

Yeah but would the box have slipped without the penguin in it? We need more penguin box experiments I think.
