#dirtyfrag — Public Fediverse posts

#Linux got bitten by crypto-related page cache vulnerabilities in recent weeks. They had rather boring names: #CopyFail #DirtyFrag #Fragnesia

The #FreeBSD community is fixing this by naming their own bug of this class #BUMSRAKETE.

(Now, if you ran the name through a translator and are questioning its legitimacy: It's as real as the person that inspired the bug report's style, unfortunately.)

Am i being wrong to think, that it's a GOOD usage of AI when serious issues in the Kernel like #dirtyfrag and #copyfail are found and released?
Of course they should not be used to cause harm, but imho this is a huge advantage of Open Source because the issues can be fixed quickly!

#opensource #linux

With the rise of Linux vulnerabilities, Linux kernel developers are now considering a kill switch

The Register quoted Wiz putting it plainly: “The Linux networking stack is starting to look less like infrastructure and more like a root exploit vending machine.”
