About this tag
QNX, a BlackBerry subsidiary, is a real-time operating system (RTOS) used in embedded systems, particularly in automotive and industrial applications. Recent discussions on WindowsForum cover the QNX and Microsoft Azure partnership announced at CES 2025, which aims to accelerate software-defined vehicle (SDV) development by integrating QNX with Azure cloud services. Additionally, BlackBerry has released QNX 8 as a free RTOS for non-commercial use under the QNX Everywhere initiative. Security is also a key topic, with a notable BadAlloc vulnerability (CVE-2021-22156) affecting QNX RTOS, which could allow remote code execution or denial-of-service. These threads highlight QNX's role in secure, real-time embedded systems and its growing collaboration with Microsoft.
