Brittle Operating Systems
It's hard to believe how brittle modern Operating Systems still are. After years of development and refinement, you would expect most mainstream OSes to have reached a reasonable level of robustness and security. However, a simple fork bomb easily brings most OSes down.
It is as if the concept of denial of service would not belong in the software security category. Apparently, responsiveness does not fit into the OS writers' idea of software robustness either.
