Microchip PolarFire RISC-V SoC FPGA was one of the first Linux-compatible RISC- V SoCs and was found in pricey boards such as the Icicle and TySOM-M-MPFS250 development boards. I also got an Icicle board for review, and while getting started with the Yocto Linux BSP was OK, I really struggled with the FPGA part including just installing Libero SoC in Ubuntu and going through the license, and even I gave up trying to run a bitstream sample on the board due to a lack of time. The BeagleV-Fire makes it much cheaper to try out the PolarFire and hopefully makes it easier to get started with both Linux and the FPGA fabric through easier-to-understand documentation and code samples. Read_on Linux Gizmos: * ⚓ New_BeagleV_Single_Board_Computer_adopts_Microchip’s_PolarFire_SoC⠀⇛ BeagleBoard.org has announced the release of BeagleV-Fire which integrates the robust capabilities of Microchip’s PolarFire MPFS025T FCVG484E, a 5x core RISC-V System on Chip (SoC) with FPGA fabric. This SBC is designed to cater diverse applications such as robotics, IoT, artificial intelligence and more. Unlike the BeagleV-Ahead covered in July 2023, the new Microchip-based SBC has the following core specifications... ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿

Encryption at rest provides a solution. Edge environments are usually located at sites with untrusted networks and lesser physical security than traditional data centers. This puts the security of the application's data running on them at risk. Data destruction, corruption or even the leak of confidential information to malicious actors is possible. To reduce that risk it is recommended to encrypt every disk storing sensitive data, like the one where the application's persistent data is stored. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 719 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Firefox_hiredis_Strace_updates_in_Tumbleweed.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Firefox_hiredis_Strace_updates_in_Tumbleweed.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Firefox, hiredis, Strace updates in Tumbleweed⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Rianne Schestowitz on Nov 03, 2023 🄸🄼🄰🄶🄴_🄳🄴🅂🄲🅁🄸🄿🅃🄸🄾🄽_⦇strace⦈_ Snapshots of openSUSE Tumbleweed this week have been frequent with a fair amount of software packages arriving in each snapshot..

The relevant part of the NEWS file is appended below. A diff file from the previous release is not available. The online manuals have also been updated. The usual GNU build incantation should be used: tar -xpvzf gawk-5.3.0.tar.gz cd gawk-5.3.0 ./configure && make && make check Please use the gawkbug script to report bugs. If it doesn't work for you, then send email to bug-gawk@gnu.org. NOTE that the manual's instructions for sending bug reports were updated for the earlier 5.2.0 release. Please review them carefully before submitting a report! ONLY bug reports should be submitted to the bug-gawk list. All other questions should use the help-gawk@gnu.org mailing list. Enjoy!

Copying and distribution of this file, with or without modification, are permitted in any medium without royalty provided the copyright notice and this notice are preserved. Changes from 5.2.x to 5.3.0 --------------------------- 1. Infrastructure changes: Removed the use of libsigsegv. The value-add was never very much and it caused problems in some environments. 2. In keeping with new features in BWK awk, gawk now has built-in CSV file parsing. The behavior is intended to be identical to that of the "One True AWK" when --csv is applied. See the manual for details. 3. Also in keeping with BWK awk, gawk now supports a new \u escape sequence. This should be followed by 1-8 hexadecimal digits. The given code point is converted to its corresponding multibyte encoding for storage inside gawk. See the manual. 4. If PROCINFO["BUFFERPIPE"] exists, then pipe output is buffered. You can also use PROCINFO["command", "BUFFERPIPE"]. See the manual for details. 5. Because of the additional `do_csv' variable in the API, which breaks binary compatibility, the API major version was updated to 4 and the minor version was reset to zero. The API remains source code compatible; that is, existing extensions should only require recompilation. 6. The manual now requires Texinfo 7.1 and its texinfo.tex for formatting. As a result, we no longer need to pre-process it, removing the need for gawktexi.in and leaving just gawk.texi. 7. And of course, there have been several minor code cleanups and bug fixes. See the ChangeLog for details. Changes from 5.2.2 to 5.2.x --------------------------- 1. The readdir extension has been updated with additonal code and features, see the manual or its man page. As a result, the readdir_test.c extension has been removed. 2. We have a new translation: Ukranian. 3. Several subtle issues related to null regexp matches around multibyte characters have been fixed.

If I only could have it on a to-do list somewhere… 🤔 Before we dive into this pretty massive release, I want to quickly look back at two amazing things that happened in the past month. First, we presented chapter 4 of the Year of the Voice, which introduced the new wake word feature in Home Assistant. This really brings the voice assistant experience to the next level, and we are super excited about it! Like have you seen the R5- based voice assistant droid? 😍 * ⚓ Home_Assistant_2023.11_released⠀⇛ Home Assistant 2023.11 is available. New features include a to- do list manager, Matter 1.2 support, customizable tile cards, new integrations, and more. * ⚓ Home_Assistant:_ten_years_of_privacy-focused_home_automation⠀⇛ Many home-automation devices come with their own mobile app or cloud service. However, using multiple apps or services is inconvenient, so it's (purposely) tempting to only buy devices from the same vendor, but this can lead to lock-in. One project that lets users manage home-automation devices from various vendors without lock-in is Home Assistant. Over its ten-year existence, it has developed into a user-friendly home- automation platform that caters to both technically inclined and less tech-savvy people. In 2012, while finishing his master's thesis, Paulus Schoutsen purchased a Philips Hue starter kit consisting of a hub and three light bulbs. When he discovered that the hub had a local API accessible over the network, he wrote a Python script to control the light bulbs. Then he wrote a script that would turn on the lights at sunset, but soon he realized that the bulbs would turn on when no one was home. To address this, he developed a script that logged into his WiFi access point to detect connected phones and used this presence-detection as a condition in his light-automation script. Recognizing its potential usefulness for others, Schoutsen refactored the code and made it configurable so that users would not have to write Python code themselves. On September 17, 2013, he released the first version of his Home Assistant project to GitHub. He started promoting it on the r/ homeautomation subreddit whenever people sought advice on automating their homes; the project gained momentum as the community expanded and more developers contributed. ⣋⣹⣏⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⢙⣿⣿⣉⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣉⣉⣉⣿⣿⣉⣉⣙⣿⣿⣉⣉⣿⣿⣋⢉⣙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡏⣿ ⠛⢻⡟⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⡞⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠛⣿ ⡟⢻⡟⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉ ⠋⢹⡟⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⠤⣤⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡤⢤⣤⣤⣤⡤⢤⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡤⢤⣤⣤⣤⣤⢤⡄⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡤⠤⢤⣤⣤⣤⡤⣤⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⠤⠠⣤⣤⣤⣤⢤⡄ ⠛⢻⡟⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⡿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠛⠿⠿⠿⠿⢶⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠶⠾⠿⠿⣿⣷⣾⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠧⠼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⠿⠷⠤⠶⠿⣿⣿⣷⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⠿⠿⠀⠀⠿⠿⣿⣿⣾⡇ ⠋⢹⡟⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣷⣶⣶⣆⣀⣀⣀⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣶⣆⣀⣀⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⣿⣿⣏⣀⣀⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⣿⣿⣿⣿⣆⣀⣀⣀⣰⣿⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣿⣿⣶⣆⣀⣀⣰⣶⣿⣿⣿⡇ ⠛⢻⡟⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣉⣉⣹⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣉⣉⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣍⣉⣹⣿⣿⡇⢿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⣉⣉⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⣇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⣉⣉⣽⣿⣿⠇ ⡋⢻⡟⠛⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⢠⣤⣤⣤⠤⣤⢠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣀⣠⣤⣤⣤⡤⢤⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣄⣀⣤⣤⣤⣤⢤⡄⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⡄⠀⢠⣤⣤⣤⡤⣤⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠋⢹⡟⠛⢻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⡿⠿⠿⠇⠀⠼⠿⠿⣿⣶⣿⠸⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠿⠿⠿⠿⠷⣾⠀⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠻⠿⠿⠿⠿⢾⡇⣿⣿⣿⡿⠿⠧⠀⠸⠿⢿⣿⣷⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⣷⣶⣄⣀⣀⣀⣰⣶⣿⣿⣿⢸⣶⣶⣶⣶⣀⣀⣀⣰⣶⣶⣶⣾⠀⣷⣶⣶⣶⣆⣀⣀⣀⣶⣶⣶⣾⡇⣿⣿⣿⣷⣶⣀⣀⣀⣲⣾⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⣉⣉⣹⣿⣿⣿⢸⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢸⣉⣉⣿⣿⣿⠀⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⣉⣉⣹⣿⣿⡇⢿⣿⡇⠀⠀⠀⠀⢈⣉⣉⣿⣿⣿⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⠈⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠁⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣀⢀⡀⠀⠀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⢀⡀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⠀⡀⠀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀⣀⡀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⢀⡀⢀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⣀⡀ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⢧⣀⣇⣀⣀⣈⣉⣉⣙⣿⣿⣯⡄⢘⠀⢘⣤⣤⣤⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣤⠀⣀⣀⣠⣤⣤⣬⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣧⡇⣇⠀⣠⣤⣤⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣯⣼⢸⣀⣀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣼⣥⡇ ⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⠞⠉⠉⠙⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠇⢸⣋⣉⣙⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⣟⣉⣉⣹⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡇⢾⣋⣉⣉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡁⢘⢸⣏⣉⣉⣉⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠆ ⠟⢻⡟⠛⠛⠛⠛⣿⣿⣿⠀⡖⠐⠖⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⢲⡶⢦⢰⠒⢲⠶⠶⠶⠶⢶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠶⠀⠂⠀⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⠒⢲⣶⡶⠆⣴⠒⠲⠶⠶⠶⢶⣶⣶⣶⣶⡶⢶⢰⠀⠒⠶⠶⢶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠶⡄ ⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠉⠀⣧⣤⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⣞⢠⣤⣤⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣶⠀⣤⣤⣤⣤⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠷⡇⢻⣤⣶⣶⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣾⢸⣤⣤⣶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣷⡃ ⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⣶⠀⠻⠤⠤⠼⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠸⠦⠤⠤⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠀⠧⠤⠤⠼⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠧⠠⠄⠻⠤⠤⠼⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠟⠘⠦⠤⠤⠤⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠿⠃ ⡅⢸⣧⣤⣤⣤⣽⣿⣿⣿⠀⡋⠉⣙⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⠛⣟⣻⢘⠀⢘⠉⠉⠉⣁⣈⣉⣉⣉⣹⣛⠀⡏⠙⡟⢛⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⡃⡏⠀⢙⠛⠛⣻⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣟⣻⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⣀⣠⣧⣤⣼⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⡽⠿⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⢸⠶⠾⠶⣶⣾⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⠀⡿⠾⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⡅⣽⠶⠿⢿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣿⣯⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1208 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Hyphens_minus_and_dashes_in_Debian_man_pages.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Hyphens_minus_and_dashes_in_Debian_man_pages.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Hyphens, minus, and dashes in Debian man pages⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Nov 03, 2023 It is probably fair to say that most Linux users spend little time thinking about the troff typesetting program, despite that application's groundbreaking role in computing history. Troff (along with nroff) is still with us, though, even if they are called groff these days, and every now and then they make their presence known. A recent groff change created a bit of a tempest within the Debian community, and has effectively been reverted there. It all comes down to the question of what, exactly, is the character used to mark command- line options on Unix systems? Last July, Sven Joachim filed a bug report regarding a change in groff, and in how it renders man pages for terminals in particular. A change to the handling of the character often referred to as "hyphen", "minus", or "dash" ("-") made many man pages rather harder to work with.

As we reported back in September, there is a proposal about the upcoming KDE Plasma 6 to be included in the Fedora 40, which is expected to be released around the end of April 2024. So far, nothing surprising, given that the Plasma 6 release date is set for February 28, 2024.

It would enable the hardening of user-space applications against certain types of attacks; some other operating systems have this type of feature already. There is support for adding this type of mechanism to the Linux kernel as well, but it has become clear that mseal() will not land in the mainline in anything resembling its current form. Instead, it has become an example of how not to do kernel development at a number of levels. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Weighted_interleaving_for_memory_tiering⠀⇛ The kernel has, for many years, had the ability to control how memory allocation is performed in systems with multiple NUMA nodes. More recently, NUMA nodes have also been pressed into service to represent different classes of memory; those nodes are now organized into tiers according to their performance characteristics. While memory-allocation policies can control the placement of pages at the NUMA-node level, the kernel provides no way to connect those policies with memory tiers. This patch series from Gregory Price aims to change this situation by allowing allocations to be placed across tiers in a weighted manner. The days when computers simply had "memory" have passed. Systems now can contain numerous types of memory with wildly different performance profiles. Persistent memory can be available in large quantities, but it is relatively slow. CXL memory may be faster, though still not as fast as normal DRAM, and it can come and go during the life of the system. High- bandwidth memory can be faster than normal DRAM. Devices, too, can make their own memory available on the system's memory bus. Each memory provider is represented in the system as one or more CPU-less NUMA nodes. * ⚓ LWN ☛ Help_wanted_at_LWN⠀⇛ LWN.net is looking to hire a full-time writer/editor to help us keep the news flowing and to expand our content in areas of interest to our readers. We are certain that the person we need is out there somewhere, and are counting on help from LWN readers to find them. Read on for details on who we are looking for and how we see them fitting in here. LWN has always set an ambitious goal for itself: making what is happening in the Linux and free-software-development communities clear and understandable to those who are a part of it in any way — or who would like to be. It is a far bigger job than even a larger LWN could do, but we do the best that we can. To do better, we need more people with the energy and desire to pick up part of the load. Fortunately, we are in a position where we can bring in such a person full time. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 1419 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/KQuickImageEditor_0_3_0_and_Kirigami_Adddons_0_12_alpha.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/KQuickImageEditor_0_3_0_and_Kirigami_Adddons_0_12_alpha.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ KQuickImageEditor 0.3.0 and Kirigami Adddons 0.12 alpha⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Nov 03, 2023 Two new releases are out in preparation of the first alpha release or the February Megarelease.

But glibc also provides a "tunables" interface to control how the library operates; rather than being managed by a C API, tunables are set with the GLIBC_TUNABLES environment variable. Glibc tunables have been a part of a few security problems involving setuid binaries, most recently the "Looney Tunables" bug disclosed at the beginning of October. The glibc developers are now considering significant changes to tunable handling in the hope of avoiding such problems in the future. * ⚓ Julia Evans ☛ Confusing_git_terminology⠀⇛ Hello!

Just how can providing Europeans with a harmonised digital ID be so controversial? As you might imagine, the devil lies in the detail. At issue is the eIDAS Regulation, a system which, in the words of its website: “ensures that people and businesses can use their own national electronic identification schemes (eIDs) to access public services available online in other EU countries,” and “creates a European internal market for trust services by ensuring that they will work across borders and have the same legal status as their traditional paper-based equivalents,” and the point of concern lies with its application to websites. The EU want to ensure that Europeans can digitally verify businesses as well as individuals they deal with, and since that includes websites, they want to insert a provision allowing countries to mandate their own trusted root certificates. At a stroke, this opens the potential for state actors to snoop on all encrypted online traffic, something which would compromise the security of all. Read_on Update (by Roy) More in: * ⚓ Last_Chance_to_fix_eIDAS:_Secret_EU_law_threatens_Internet_security⠀⇛ These changes radically expand the capability of EU governments to surveil their citizens by ensuring cryptographic keys under government control can be used to intercept encrypted web traffic across the EU. Any EU member state has the ability to designate cryptographic keys for distribution in web browsers and browsers are forbidden from revoking trust in these keys without government permission. This enables the government of any EU member state to issue website certificates for interception and surveillance which can be used against every EU citizen, even those not resident in or connected to the issuing member state. There is no independent check or balance on the decisions made by member states with respect to the keys they authorize and the use they put them to. This is particularly troubling given that adherence to the rule of law has not been uniform across all member states, with documented instances of coercion by secret police for political purposes. The text goes on to ban browsers from applying security checks to these EU keys and certificates except those pre-approved by the EU’s IT standards body - ETSI. This rigid structure would be problematic with any entity, but government-controlled standard bodies are especially susceptible to misaligned incentives in cryptography. ETSI in particular has both a concerning track record of producing compromised cryptographic standards and a working group dedicated entirely to developing interception technology. * ⚓ Commission_services_sign_administrative_arrangements_with_French_and Irish_media_regulators_to_support_enforcement_of_Digital_Services_Act [blocked by gratuitous javascript]⠀⇛ The Commission services have signed administrative arrangements with the media regulators of France (Autorité de regulation de la communication audiovisuelle et numérique, Arcom) and Ireland (Coimisiún na Meán), to support its supervisory and enforcement powers under the Digital Services Act (DSA). These arrangements aim at developing expertise and capabilities and follow the Commission Recommendation to Member States for coordinating their response to the spread and amplification of illegal content on Very Large Online Platforms and Very Large Online Search Engines, ahead of the deadline for Member States to play their role in the enforcement of the DSA. * ⚓ EU_Digital_Identity_framework_(eIDAS)_another_kind_of_chat_control?⠀⇛ 2. Articles 45 and 45a stipulate that web browsers must recognise a new form of certificate issued by any EU state , potentially compromising the encryption and most of all trust and overall security of the web. 3. This situation bears similarity to the controversy surrounding "chat control", as it implies that authorities could intermediate all traffic, decrypting communications sent over services using these certificates. * ⚓ Industry_Joint_Statement_on_Article_45_in_the_EU’s_eIDAS_Regulation⠀⇛ Articles 45 and 45a of the proposed eIDAS provisions are likely to weaken the security of the Internet as a whole. These articles mandate that all Web browsers recognize a new form of certificate for the purposes of authenticating websites. The current language is imprecise, and this risks being interpreted as requiring that browsers recognize the certificate authorities that each EU member state appoints for the purposes of authenticating the domain name of websites. The root store programs operated by Web browsers and operating systems are the core of Internet security. The certificate authorities recognized by these programs are responsible for attesting to the authenticity of domain names for websites. However, this is not the only system that depends on these certificates. Certificates provided by certificate authorities also secure global commerce in many ways, including email, voice and video, messaging, software delivery, and many other proprietary forms of communication used by businesses. * ⚓ Hold_up:_300_say_eIDAS_rules_could_make_surveillance_easier_for_EU nations⠀⇛ A similar statement issued by ten internet infrastructure and security companies says articles 45 and 45a “are likely to weaken the security of the Internet as a whole.” The articles require all web browsers to recognize new site-authentication certificates. But the passages in question are “imprecise,” they say. That imprecision could be interpreted as saying that all browsers must recognize the certificate authorities that are appointed by each state to authenticate domain names. * ⚓ EU_digital_ID_reforms_should_be_‘actively_resisted’,_say_experts⠀⇛ The group’s concerns over the amendments largely centre on Article 45 of the reformed eIDAS, where it says the text “radically expands the ability of governments to surveil both their own citizens and residents across the EU by providing them with the technical means to intercept encrypted web traffic, as well as undermining the existing oversight mechanisms relied on by European citizens”. “This clause came as a surprise because it wasn’t about governing identities and legally binding contracts, it was about web browsers, and that was what triggered our concern,” explained Murdoch. “You can perhaps see why it might belong here, but once you go into the details, you can see why it doesn’t. It’s out of place; it should be actively resisted.” * ⚓ [Old] What_is_the_eIDAS_Regulation?⠀⇛ The eIDAS Regulation is Regulation (EU) 910/2014 on electronic identification and trust services for electronic transactions in the internal market. Following the UK withdrawal from the EU the eIDAS Regulation was adopted into UK law and amended by The Electronic Identification and Trust Services for Electronic Transactions (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019). In addition, the existing UK trust services legislation, The Electronic Identification and Trust Services for Electronic Transactions Regulation 2016 (2016 No.696)) was also amended. Taken together, these regulations are referred to in this guidance as the UK eIDAS Regulations * ⚓ 9_facts_about_the_EU_Digital_Identity_Wallet⠀⇛ The EU Digital Identity Wallet is an ambitious digital identity project launched by the European Commission with the aim of boosting the single market and creating EU champions by streamlining cross-border identity verification. Pilots have been launched both to test the infrastructure and work on the EUDI Wallet’s technical features alongside its legal aspects—a rather unusual process, but one that should speed things up. The regulation should be approved by the end of 2023, along with the implementation timeline—the EU Digital Identity Wallet should be available within the next 2 to 3 years. * ⚓ The_first_working_demo_of_a_web_based_EU_digital_identity_wallet leveraging_FIDO_open_authentication_standards⠀⇛ As opposed to the widespread use of federated identities, where cloud-based digital identity providers are the central points for users to access any number of online services, the EU Digital Identity (EUDI) wallet aims to offer a new approach where the user is in control of when and where their personal data is shared and with whom. User credentials and data will include things like driver’s licenses, insurance cards, work and student visa, travel documents, credit card data, educational credentials, digital medical prescriptions, etc. Yubico has been invited to join as associate partner in EWC, one of the four EUDI wallet large scale pilots, and will formalize the membership later this year. The EWC project was co-founded by Swedish government agencies including DIGG (Agency for Digital Government), Bolagsverket (Companies Registration Office) and Vetenskapsrådet (Research Council) and Sunet (University Computer Network). Bolagsverket is together with the Finnish Ministry of Finance the coordinator of EWC. * ⚓ Yubico_joins_EWC’s_large-scale_pilot_for_EU_digital_ID_wallets_ahead_of eIDAS_2.0⠀⇛ Yubico will support ECW’s specific use case of a wallet for which multiple entities require shared control. “This is sometimes referred to as an ‘organizational wallet’ or a ‘legal person wallet’,” Ehrensvard writes. “The goal is to then develop more use cases across government and commercial services where users cannot or do not want to rely on a mobile platform.” It will draw on research conducted in collaboration with Greek Universities Network, around adding FIDO-based authentication and encryption to the latter’s open source web- based ID wallet. * ⚓ The_first_working_demo_of_a_web_based_EU_digital_identity_wallet leveraging_Fido_open_authentication_standards⠀⇛ By Yubico COMPANY NEWS: As part of the revision of the EU common identity framework regulation, also known as eIDAS 2.0, the EU Member States will all implement a new common structure for electronic credentials based on digital identity wallets.

The flaw, which had been exploited as a zero-day since August, is tracked as CVE-2023-4966 (CVSS score of 9.4) and is now referred to as ‘Citrix Bleed’. It allows unauthenticated attackers to leak sensitive information from on-prem appliances that are configured as an AAA virtual server or a gateway. * ⚓ Krebs On Security ☛ Russian_Reshipping_Service_‘SWAT_USA_Drop’ Exposed⠀⇛ One of the largest cybercrime services for laundering stolen merchandise was hacked recently, exposing its internal operations, finances and organizational structure. Here’s a closer look at the Russia-based SWAT USA Drop Service, which currently employs more than 1,200 people across the United States who are knowingly or unwittingly involved in reshipping expensive consumer goods purchased with stolen credit cards. * ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ HC3:_Analyst_Note:_8Base_Ransomware⠀⇛ While similarities exist between 8Base and other ransomware gangs, the group’s identity, methods, and motivations remain largely unknown. What follows is an overview of the group, possible connections to other threat actors, an analysis of their ransomware attacks, their target industries and victim countries, impacts to the HPH sector, MITRE ATT&CK techniques, indicators of compromise, and recommended defenses and mitigations against the group. * ⚓ Exclusive:_Virginia’s_Fairfax_Schools_Expose_Thousands_of_Sensitive Student_Records⠀⇛ Virginia’s Fairfax County Public Schools disclosed tens of thousands of sensitive, confidential student records, apparently by accident, to a parent advocate who has been an outspoken critic of its data privacy record. The documents identify current and former special education students by name and include letter grades, disability status and mental health data. In one particularly sensitive disclosure, a counselor identified over 60 students who’ve struggled with issues like depression, including those who have engaged in self-harm or been hospitalized. * ⚓ Australian_Clinical_Labs_to_face_court_over_2022_data_breach⠀⇛ The Office of the Australian Information Commissioner believes Australian Clinical Labs did not adequately protect personal data, leading to an increased risk of “identity theft, extortion and financial crime”. When MedLabs pathology was hacked in February 2022, 223,000 Australians had their personal information exposed on the darknet, including credit card details and passport information. However, that breach was not fully reported to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner until July 2022. Now, the OIAC is taking Medlab’s owner, Australian Clinical Labs, to court over claims that the company did not do enough to protect the information in its care. * ⚓ [Repeat] Data Breaches ☛ It_took_an_HHS_complaint,_but_three_years later,_some_Ventura_Orthopedic_patients_are_finally_being_notified_of_a ransomware_attack⠀⇛ In August 2020, DataBreaches reported that the Maze ransomware gang had added Ventura Orthopedics to their name-and-shame leak site. At the time, Ventura did not respond to inquiries about whether they would confirm or deny the claims. And they did not respond to other inquiries from DataBreaches when the Conti ransomware gang subsequently listed 1,850 Ventura Orthopedics on its leak site. On August 28, 2020, DataBreaches updated its post to report that this site was contacted by Chris Roberts, who was with HillBilly Hit Squad at the time. Roberts said he was contacting DataBreaches on behalf of Ventura Orthopedics who had asked him to help explain the incident and their then-current status. Roberts stated that he was still conducting forensics and asked if he could get back to DataBreaches shortly. DataBreaches agreed. * ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ Jeffco_Public_Schools_hit_by_the_same_threat_actors that_hit_Clark_County_School_District_—_and_via_the_same_way⠀⇛ DataBreaches contacted SingularityMD to ask them some preliminary questions. In response, they noted that the first gained access to Jeffco about six months ago — using exactly the same methods that they reported using for CCSD. Once again, a district’s policy of using students’ date of birth as their password enabled threat actors to relatively easily gain access to the network. In discussing the CCSD attack with DataBreaches, SingularityMD (SM) had stated: * ⚓ The Age AU ☛ ‘Curious’_pharmacist_spied_on_patient_records_at_The Alfred⠀⇛ About 7000 Alfred Health patients are victims of a privacy breach after a pharmacist working at Victoria’s leading trauma hospital accessed personal medical records without authorisation. Alfred Health wrote to every patient affected in a letter sent on Monday, seen by The Age, which said the pharmacist was dismissed after an investigation, launched in June, found they had used the hospital’s electronic database to view records over four years without a clinical reason to do so. * ⚓ The Defense Post ☛ Boeing_Confirms_‘Cyber_Incident’_from_LockBit Hacking_Group⠀⇛ Boeing has confirmed a “cyber incident” in its parts and distributions business days after a ransomware group published threats against the company. The acknowledgment came after LockBit hackers said on Friday they had tapped “a tremendous amount” of classified data from Boeing that would be leaked online if the company does not transfer payment by November 2. The statement was reportedly erased from the hacking website Wednesday morning, an update from Reuters said. * ⚓ Bloomberg ☛ NY_Financial_Regulator_Rolls_Out_Updated_Cybersecurity Standards⠀⇛ New York regulators assigned heightened cybersecurity requirements to banks, insurers, and financial services providers based in the state with the release of finalized rule amendments Wednesday. Covered entities will have to use multifactor authentication, expand cybersecurity governance duties, and conduct consistent threat testing under the regulation updated by the New York Department of Financial Services. The New York agency is a national leader in cybersecurity regulation, with other state and federal regulators adopting its approach—the Federal Trade Commission notably said its newest breach reporting standards were “based primarily” on rules first established in New York. * ⚓ Bleeping Computer ☛ Okta_hit_by_third-party_data_breach_exposing employee_information⠀⇛ Okta is warning nearly 5,000 current and former employees that their personal information was exposed after a third-party vendor was breached. * ⚓ Bloomberg ☛ Wawa_Data_Breach_Settlement’s_$3_Million_Lawyers_Fee Rejected⠀⇛ A federal appeals court has vacated over $3 million in attorneys’ fees awarded as part of a $12.2 million data breach settlement against Wawa Inc. The fee award issue now is remanded to the district court “to take a closer look at the reasonableness of the attorney’s fees in proportion to class benefit and to scrutinize the presence of side agreements,” said Judge Paul Matey, writing for the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in an opinion released Thursday. * ⚓ The Straits Times ☛ Healthcare_institutions’_websites_outage_did_not disrupt_critical_service_but_it_does_shake_confidence⠀⇛ It might have come as a shock that the websites for all public sector healthcare institutions were unavailable for more than seven hours on Wednesday. Given today’s high dependency on the Internet, people here expect online access to public sector information to be always available. So the shock is greater when the disruptions did not affect just one institute, but the entire public healthcare system. Many people questioned why there wasn’t a back-up system. Checks by cyber security experts of the websites that were down showed they shared similar IP addresses, which suggests that the websites of all three public healthcare clusters were hosted on the same server. * ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ Town_of_Iowa_in_Louisiana_victim_of_ransomware_attack: ALPHV_publishes_a_portion_of_the_exfiltrated_documents⠀⇛ The ransomware group ALPHV (BlackCat) has published a first part of exfiltrated data from the Town of Iowa in the state of Louisiana. * ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ Exclusive:_Daixin_Team_claims_responsibility_for attacks_affecting_Canadian_hospitals,_starts_leaking_data⠀⇛ Daixin Team is now claiming responsibility for — and leaking data from — an attack that has significantly impacted five Canadian hospitals in Ontario. TransForm Shared Service Organization provides IT, supply chain, and accounts payable services to Windsor Regional Hospital, Hotel Dieu Grace, Erie Shores Healthcare, Hospice of Windsor-Essex, and the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance. According to media coverage and news releases by TransForm, a ransomware attack disrupted the hospitals’ access to Wi-Fi, email, and patient information systems. Surgeries and appointments have reportedly been canceled or rescheduled in some cases, and patients could not be reached by phone to alert them to the interrupted services. Yesterday, CBC reported that radiation treatment for cancer patients was being transferred from Windsor and to other hospitals. * ⚓ Bleeping Computer ☛ Toronto_Public_Library_outages_caused_by_Black Basta_ransomware_attack⠀⇛ The Toronto Public Library is experiencing ongoing technical outages due to a Black Basta ransomware attack. The Toronto Public Library (TPL) is Canada’s largest public library system, giving access to 12 million books through 100 branch libraries across the city. The library system has 1,200,000 registered members and operates on a budget that surpasses $200M. * ⚓ Data Breaches ☛ Exclusive:_Advarra_hacked,_threat_actors_threatening_to leak_data_(1)⠀⇛ Of note, the listing, which included a note written in Hebrew, claims that Advarra called the threat actors “digital terrorists” and one of the executives told them to “fuck off.” No data was leaked with the posting, but the threat to leak was posted if the company didn’t reach out. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2498 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Security_Leftovers.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Security_Leftovers.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Security Leftovers⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Nov 03, 2023 * ⚓ LWN ☛ Security_updates_for_Thursday⠀⇛ Security updates have been issued by Gentoo (Netatalk), Oracle (firefox), Red Hat (.NET 6.0, .NET 6.0, .NET 7.0, binutils, and qemu-kvm), SUSE (gcc13, tomcat, and xorg-x11-server), and Ubuntu (axis, libvpx, linux-starfive, thunderbird, and xrdp). * ⚓ The New Stack ☛ LF_Europe_Chief_Warns_Developers_on_EU’s_Cyber Resilience_Act⠀⇛ European developers face being unable to download or contribute to open source software if the EU’s Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) is passed as it currently stands, Linux Foundation Europe chief Gabriele Columbro has warned. Even though proposed amendments to the legislation address some of the open source community’s most pressing concerns, Columbro told The New Stack, the industry faces years of uncertainty and risk as policymakers, standards bodies, lawyers, and developers thrash out what the legislation means in practice. * ⚓ Medevel ☛ 41_Open-source_and_Free_Vulnerability_Scanners_For_Pentesting and_Web_App_Security⠀⇛ Vulnerability scanners are software applications that monitor systems for potential security threats. These tools scan your network and systems for vulnerabilities that could be exploited by hackers.

This release updates Firefox to 115.4.0esr, including bug fixes, stability improvements and important security updates. We also backported the Android-specific security updates from Firefox 119. * ⚓ TecMint ☛ Universal_Package_Managers_for_Linux:_Snap,_Flatpak,_and AppImage⠀⇛ Package management or software installation on Linux systems can be very puzzling especially for newbies (new Linux users), as different Linux distributions use different traditional package management systems. The most confusing part of it all in most cases is package dependency resolution/management. For instance, Debian-based distributions like Ubuntu and Linux Mint utilize .deb packages, which are managed through the dpkg package management system. * ⚓ Kubernetes Blog ☛ Kubernetes_Contributor_Summit:_Behind-the-scenes⠀⇛ Every year, just before the official start of KubeCon+CloudNativeCon, there's a special event that has a very special place in the hearts of those organizing and participating in it: the Kubernetes Contributor Summit. To find out why, and to provide a behind-the-scenes perspective, we interview Noah Abrahams, whom amongst other roles was the co- lead for the Kubernetes Contributor Summit in 2023. Frederico Muñoz (FSM): Hello Noah, and welcome. Could you start by introducing yourself and telling us how you got involved in Kubernetes? Noah Abrahams (NA): I’ve been in this space for quite a while.  I got started in IT in the mid 90's, and I’ve been working in the "Cloud" space for about 15 years.  It was, frankly, through a combination of sheer luck (being in the right place at the right time) and having good mentors to pull me into those places (thanks, Tim!), that I ended up at a startup called Apprenda in 2016. While I was there, they pivoted into Kubernetes, and it was the best thing that could have happened to my career.  It was around v1.2 and someone asked me if I could give a presentation on Kubernetes concepts at "my local meetup" in Las Vegas.  The meetup didn’t exist yet, so I created it, and got involved in the wider community.  One thing led to another, and soon I was involved in ContribEx, joined the release team, was doing booth duty for the CNCF, became an ambassador, and here we are today. ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2762 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Today_in_Techrights.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/Today_in_Techrights.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ Today in Techrights⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Nov 03, 2023 ⚓ Updated This Past Day⠀⇛ 1. ⚓ Richard_Stallman_and_Critical_Health_Condition⠀⇛ First update in 5 months 2. ⚓ Yleisradio_Oy_(Yle)_Acting_Like_a_Microsoft_Mouthpiece_(Legacy_of Mikael_Jungner_is_Likely)⠀⇛ Microsoft is not about technical work but about marketing, bribery, "lobbying", and mobbing 3. ⚓ It's_Not_Impossible_That_a_Desperate_West_Will_Try_to_Ban_Chinese Developers_From_Kernel_Development_(or_Curtail_Linux_Freedom_With_Some Superficial_Limitations_and/or_Back_Doors)⠀⇛ They already did this to Russians 4. ⚓ Oi!_Yleisradio_Oy_(Yle)_Gets_Its_Facts_Wrong_on_Home_Network_Security⠀⇛ Are Microsofters or Supo running that site? 5. ⚓ The_Negative_Consequences_from_Clicking_on_“I_Agree”-_Understanding App,_Social_Media,_and_AI_Terms_of_Service⠀⇛ PureOS, for example, supports secure apps and social media platforms developed to support privacy and are not supported by a targeted advertising business model rooted in Surveillance Capitalism ⚓ New⠀⇛ 6. ⚓ Also_Over_at_Tux_Machines...⠀⇛ 2 days' GNU/Linux news 7. ⚓ Links_03/11/2023:_Another_Big_Round_of_Layoffs,_Australian_Banks Offline⠀⇛ Links for the day 8. ⚓ Android_Has_Painted_the_World_'Linux'_(Except_Few_Nations)⠀⇛ This is worse for Microsoft than we've ever seen it before (and we've checked for years already) 9. ⚓ [Video]_Nations_Moving_to_GNU/Linux_and_Why_That's_Important_for_Their National_Sovereignty/Autonomy⠀⇛ what the world would be like without (or after) Windows 10. ⚓ [Video]_Facebook_Against_Free_Software_Rules⠀⇛ The OSI is hopeless; but the problem goes well beyond and predates Facebook 11. ⚓ IRC_Proceedings:_Wednesday,_November_01,_2023⠀⇛ IRC logs for Wednesday, November 01, 2023 12. ⚓ IRC_Proceedings:_Thursday,_November_02,_2023⠀⇛ IRC logs for Thursday, November 02, 2023 13. ⚓ [Video]_Daily_Bulletins_Now_Compatible_With_the_New_Site⠀⇛ Changes had to be made 14. ⚓ Free_Software_Spreading_Like_Fire_(GNU/Linux_at_8%_"Market_Share"_on the_Client_Side_Now,_Not_Counting_Mobile)⠀⇛ According to statCounter 15. ⚓ Links_02/11/2023:_Condé_Nast,_Splunk_Layoffs⠀⇛ Links for the day 16. ⚓ Buying_Apple_PCs_to_Run_GNU/Linux_is_a_Bad_Idea_(It_Always_Was)⠀⇛ Reprinted with permission from Ryan Farmer 17. ⚓ More_Cuts_at_Microsoft_Alleged,_Microsoft-Funded_Media_Apparatus_Condé Nast_Has_Mass_Layoffs_Too⠀⇛ mass layoffs 18. ⚓ Links_01/11/2023:_Bungie_Layoffs_and_Mindless_Promotion_of_Illegal Kangaroo_Court_(Unified_Patent_'Court')⠀⇛ Links for the day 19. ⚓ ISPs_and_National_Media_Blame_Internet_Users_for_'Weak_Passwords'_(Only LAN_Users_Have_Access)_While_National_Spy_Agencies_Mandate_Back_Doors_and Microsoft_Windows_Causes_Most_of_the_Distributed_Denial_of_Service Attacks,_Data_Breaches,_Ransomware_Etc.⠀⇛ firmware is closed source 20. ⚓ Links_01/11/2023:_Hardware_Sanctions_and_Censorship_Abundant_(Universal Trend)⠀⇛ Links for the day ䷩ 𝚕𝚒𝚗𝚎 2924 ╒═══════════════════ 𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐈𝐂𝐋𝐄 ═════════════════════════════════════════════════╕ (ℹ) Images, hyperlinks and comments at https://news.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/today_s_howtos.1.shtml Gemini version at gemini://gemini.tuxmachines.org/n/2023/11/03/today_s_howtos.1.gmi ⠀⌧ █▇▆▅▄▃▂▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁ today's howtos⠀▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▁▂▃▄▅▆▇█ ⌧ posted by Roy Schestowitz on Nov 03, 2023 * ⚓ ID Root ☛ How_To_Install_PostgreSQL_on_GNU/Linux_Mint_21⠀⇛ In this tutorial, we will show you how to install PostgreSQL on GNU/Linux Mint 21.

In response, I was asked a very good question about why not have the firewall work by Ethernet address instead of IP. A starting answer is that firewalls have traditionally not had particular good support for working on MACs, and have instead focused on IPs. But why do firewalls prefer to work this way? There are probably several reasons, but I will theorize that a good part of it is that IP addresses are more both more general and easier to work with. * ⚓ Adriaan Roselli ☛ Don’t_Turn_a_Table_into_an_ARIA_Grid_Just_for_a Clickable_Row⠀⇛ Again, title says it all.

DataBreaches would occasionally get an inquiry from HHS asking if there were any updates and if we still had all the data we had offered to HHS when we filed the complaint. Things started to move, however slowly, in an April 2023 conference call with HHS, during which their investigator asked DataBreaches if we would be willing to reach out to Ventura to offer them a copy of the data. DataBreaches firmly (and somewhat impolitely) declined, stating that DataBreaches had reached out multiple times to Ventura to no avail and their consultant had ghosted DataBreaches. If Ventura wanted help from DataBreaches, they would have to pick up the phone and ask for it. * ⚓ Security Week ☛ Iranian_Cyber_Spies_Use_‘LionTail’_Malware_in_Latest Attacks⠀⇛ As part of the framework, Check Point found that Scarred Manticore deploys the passive backdoor LionTail on Windows servers, to execute commands via HTTP requests and run payloads attackers send to URLs specified in the malware’s configuration. * ⚓ Check Point Software Technologies Ltd ☛ Unraveling_the_Scarred Manticore_Saga:_A_Riveting_Epic_of_High-Stakes_Espionage_Unfolding_in_the Heart_of_the_Middle_East⠀⇛ The LIONTAIL framework, the latest in their arsenal, utilizes custom loaders and memory-resident shellcode payloads.
