Software bugs discovered in Chinese-made applications

BEIJING - A Chinese software maker has been ordered to notify its clients after bugs which could be exploited by hackers were discovered in two of its applications.

However, no attacks have yet been reported in connection with the bugs, which were found in applications made by Sunway Force Control Technology Co, according to the Chinese network security monitor on Friday.

"We have ordered the company to make a full list of their clients and call them one by one to notify them of the vulnerability of their product," the National Computer Network Emergency Response Technical Team (CERT) told China Daily.
