Oggi ho catturato l'attenzione della mia quinta con un argomento "caldo": crackare le password su Linux dopo un ipotetico data breach.
Quando è entrato un collega si è preoccupato di cosa insegno ai ragazzi, penso sia difficile capire che l'ethical hacking è alla base della sicurezza informatica, e quando insegni Sistemi e Reti non puoi pensare di ridurla a switch e router, d'altronde se si studia il fascismo in Storia mica è per diventare un fascista, no?

Question! Why should local governments use taxpayers’ money to buy proprietary, closed software from a single vendor? And what happens to citizens' data?

> The upstream xz repository and the xz tarballs have been backdoored.

As far as Debian is concerned, seems like only Sid was affected (fixed):

Generally, XZ Utils versions 5.6.0 and 5.6.1.

🚨 ⚠️ Emergency PSA: A critical security exploit was discovered in the xz package recently, used for compression and decompression on nearly all Linux distributions.

Rawhide users ARE impacted and should immediately STOP using Rawhide until the package update is fully rolled back. (1/3)
