Re: [Ubuntu-PH] OT: Ubuntu on Election Automation

As I mentioned earlier, the way the PCOS count the votes is error prone, plus 
the things you've mentioned below if that is true it is indeed a matter of 
serious concern of the P.O.P.

Yes - but there are more problems found : 


Among the unresolved problems revealed by the SysTest code review are the 
following: 



• “Possible database corruption", which can result in loss of vote data 
(p.16, 24) 
• “Potentially incomplete, corrupted, overwritten or lost audit logs," 
which can also result in loss of vote data as well as make it possible for 
intruders to hide their tracks (p.18-19, 21, 23, 30-31); 
• “Possible injection of malicious SQL [database] commands", which can 
corrupt vote data (p.19); 
• “Unencrypted passwords in database and other encryption and password 
problems" (p.19-20, 24, 29); and 
• “Possible loss of significant digits" in the vote data (p.20, 22).

Re: [Ubuntu-PH] OT: Ubuntu on Election Automation

2010-05-06 Thread Allan E. Registos
Thanks for that info. I've been watching closely the video shown in the TV news 
lately, to see what OS they've been using at Smartmatic for configuring cf 
cards. I noticed a top/bottom bars but I am not so sure, since I am also 
thinking of a theory that it maybe a running program in full screen, so thank 
you guys. 


Anyway, has anyone bothered from the recent cf card issues?? 
I think their is a flaw in the design of Smartmatic PCOS machines the way it 
counted votes, ok, as we believe that no system is 100% perfect, but as I see 
it, it is more to error prone like the single and double spacing issue. 
Anyway this is a separate topic, if you guys knew of where this topic was being 
discussed, kindly provide me a link... 


Cheers, 
Allan
