I woke up after they'd already pulled the bad update, and I don't have an affected system.
If I look at the C-00000291-00000000-00000032.sys version that Crowdstrike LFO serves me, I get something that looks superficially reasonable (not random garbage or full of zeroes).
I would share it, but my understanding is that channel files specifically can have different contents for different customers (as opposed to other files like their Linux kernel drivers, which is definitely the same giant .xz blob for everyone). So I'd rather not upload something that's potentially tied to a specific customer/company without asking for permission
But if you have a valid customer ID from Crowdstrike, I'm happy to point you the little tool I use. You can request old versions of channel files from LFO and look at the diff as much as you like. But I can't guarantee you'll actually be getting a file that's obviously broken or full of zeroes like some people are describing. My C291 0.32 looks superficially normal.

Some days, it is normal to wake up and think that this other idea you have is far more promising and has far more potential than the one you are working on. Just stay focussed and finish what you embarked on. Startups are about execution. Ideas are only 1%. Soon the novelty of the idea wears off and it is what you do day to day that distinguishes your company from others.
