The fact that computers are on the plane in and of itself is a "security
vulnerability" by your definition.

By the definitions of many, in fact, but for different reasons.

The article you quoted had no specifics on the connections so I have no data
to judge the nature of the vulnerability. Please update us if you have those
specifics. Otherwise, you're just fanning anti-Boeing flames via ignorance.

If the networks have a physical connection between them, they are vulnerable.

That must be why Boeing has been working with the FAA to correct the issue.

The FAA knows nothing about resolving this type of issue, and apparently
Boeing doesn't, either (or it doesn't want to spend the time and money to do
it right).
