NixOS Unstable Discussion
Why does it take two weeks for NixOS to replace xz?
Andres Freund on Mastodon — I was doing some micro-benchmarking at the time, needed to quiesce the system to reduce noise. Saw sshd processes were using a surprising amount of CPU, despite immediately failing because of wrong usernames etc....
rwmj on Hacker News — Very annoying - the apparent author of the backdoor was in communication with me over several weeks trying to get xz 5.6.x added to Fedora 40 & 41 because of its "great new features"
A Microcosm of the interactions in Open Source projects — Make no mistake. This is the way it works. It needs to change.
Devuan GNU/Linux on X — Devuan is not affected by the latest vulnerability caused by systemd.
systemd PR: Dynamically load compression libraries
Matteo Croce on X — I'm the author of such PR. While I absolutely didn't know that libxz had a backdoor, I really think that libraries should be loaded on-demand when rarely used, hence my change :)
Ryan C. Gordon on X — This is probably how the xz thing happened, right?
Jan Wildeboer on the Fediverse — Again the FOSS world has proven to be vigilant and proactive in finding bugs and backdoors, IMHO.
