China Orders Patches to Planned Web Filter
By EDWARD WONG
BEIJING − A designer of censorship software that the
Chinese government requires to be preinstalled on computers
sold in China has been ordered to fix potential security breaches
in the software, the newspaper China Daily reported Monday.
The report was an indication that the government still supports
use of the software _[CONNECTOR]_ heated debate over it.
The software, called Green Dam-Youth Escort, has come
under attack by many computer users in China for both political
and technical reasons.
Critics say that although the Chinese government insists
that the software will be used only to block access to
pornography Web sites, the software’s actual use will be to block
any site with content deemed politically objectionable, like the
Tibet issue or the 1989 Tiananmen killings.
The government says all computers sold in China must
have the software installed by July 1.
Early reports had indicated that the government might
simply require Green Dam to be included on a CD packaged
with new computers, so users would have the option to install it.
But it became apparent last week that the government was
insisting that all computer makers preinstall the software by July
1. Foreign computer makers learned of the directive just three
weeks ago and have been asking the Chinese government to
reconsider the rules.
Some computer experts who have studied the software
said last week that it was so flawed that it could allow hackers to
monitor a user’s Internet activity, steal personal data or plant
viruses. One expert, J. Alex Halderman, a computer science
professor at the University of Michigan, has posted on the
Internet a report on Green Dam’s vulnerabilities.
Rather than agreeing to scrap the software altogether,
the Chinese government has responded to the technical
criticisms by ordering that the potential security breaches be
eliminated.
Mr. Halderman said in an interview last week that it had
only taken a few hours for him and his students to infiltrate a
computer loaded with Green Dam and force it to crash. A skilled
hacker could take over the computer to mine personal data or
hitch it to other infected machines in a malevolent network
known as a botnet, he added.

BEIJING − A designer of censorship software that the Chinese government requires to be preinstalled on computers sold in China has been ordered to fix potential security breaches in the software, the newspaper China Daily reported Monday. PEQUIM - Um designer de software de censura que o governo chinês exige que seja pré-instalado em computadores vendidos na China recebeu ordens para corrigir possíveis falhas de segurança no software, informou o jornal China Daily na segunda-feira.
The report was an indication that the government still supports use of the software _[CONNECTOR]_ heated debate over it. O relatório foi uma indicação de que o governo ainda apoia o uso do software _[CONNECTOR]_ debate acalorado sobre ele.
The software, called Green Dam-Youth Escort, has come under attack by many computer users in China for both political and technical reasons. O software, chamado Green Dam-Youth Escort, tem sido atacado por muitos usuários de computador na China por razões políticas e técnicas.
Critics say that although the Chinese government insists that the software will be used only to block access to pornography Web sites, the software’s actual use will be to block any site with content deemed politically objectionable, like the Tibet issue or the 1989 Tiananmen killings. Os críticos dizem que, embora o governo chinês insista que o software será usado apenas para bloquear o acesso a sites pornográficos, a utilização real do software será bloquear qualquer site com conteúdo considerado politicamente censurável, como a questão do Tibete ou os assassinatos de Tiananmen em 1989.
The government says all computers sold in China must have the software installed by July 1. O governo diz que todos os computadores vendidos na China devem ter o software instalado até 1º de julho.
Early reports had indicated that the government might simply require Green Dam to be included on a CD packaged with new computers, so users would have the option to install it. Os primeiros relatórios indicavam que o governo poderia simplesmente exigir que o Green Dam fosse incluído em um CD que acompanhasse os novos computadores, para que os usuários tivessem a opção de instalá-lo.
But it became apparent last week that the government was insisting that all computer makers preinstall the software by July 1. Mas tornou-se evidente na semana passada que o governo estava a insistir que todos os fabricantes de computadores pré-instalassem o software até 1 de Julho.
Foreign computer makers learned of the directive just three weeks ago and have been asking the Chinese government to reconsider the rules. Os fabricantes estrangeiros de computadores tomaram conhecimento da diretiva há apenas três semanas e têm pedido ao governo chinês que reconsidere as regras.
Some computer experts who have studied the software said last week that it was so flawed that it could allow hackers to monitor a user’s Internet activity, steal personal data or plant viruses. Alguns especialistas em informática que estudaram o software disseram na semana passada que ele era tão falho que poderia permitir que hackers monitorassem a atividade de um usuário na Internet, roubassem dados pessoais ou plantassem vírus.
One expert, J. Alex Halderman, a computer science professor at the University of Michigan, has posted on the Internet a report on Green Dam’s vulnerabilities. Um especialista, J. Alex Halderman, professor de ciência da computação na Universidade de Michigan, publicou na Internet um relatório sobre as vulnerabilidades da Green Dam.
Rather than agreeing to scrap the software altogether, the Chinese government has responded to the technical criticisms by ordering that the potential security breaches be eliminated. Em vez de concordar em eliminar totalmente o software, o governo chinês respondeu às críticas técnicas ordenando que as potenciais violações de segurança fossem eliminadas.
Mr. Halderman said in an interview last week that it had only taken a few hours for him and his students to infiltrate a computer loaded with Green Dam and force it to crash. Halderman disse em uma entrevista na semana passada que levou apenas algumas horas para ele e seus alunos se infiltrarem em um computador carregado com Green Dam e forçá-lo a travar.
A skilled hacker could take over the computer to mine personal data or hitch it to other infected machines in a malevolent network known as a botnet, he added. Um hacker habilidoso poderia assumir o controle do computador para extrair dados pessoais ou associá-los a outras máquinas infectadas em uma rede malévola conhecida como botnet, acrescentou.
