@dey "flying in airplanes used
to be fun, but now it resembles a dystopian bin-packing problem in which
humans, carry-on luggage, and five dollar peanut bags compete for real estate while crying children materialize from the ether and make obscure demands in unintelligible, Wookie-like languages while you fantasize about who you won’t be helping when the oxygen masks descend."

Hope this cheers you up :) https://www.usenix.org/system/files/1309_14-17_mickens.pdf

@Viss you don't really talk about it because 1) NDA 2) you look at the damn code all the time?

@mttaggart I thought the "can't be bothered" needs a bit more nuance, that's all

Finally pushed an update to my #DecemberAdventure

tl;dr life is distracting and having a young kid makes this harder to keep-up with

@mttaggart Hiring is hard though, esp for SMBs. And at that level you are proper f'd if the guy says bye after a year for whatever reason. SaaS/cloud is more reliable than that.

Exim 4.99: Remote heap corruption https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/12/10/1
In vulnerable configurations, a remote, unauthenticated attacker can achieve heap corruption. No exploit for remote code execution yet, but it may be possible. No further details published yet, until the fix goes public.

CVE-2025-66293: libpng: Out-of-bounds read vulnerability fixed in 1.6.52 https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/12/03/5
Unlike typical image parsing vulnerabilities, this bug is triggered by valid PNG files. Web browsers use the low-level API rather than the simplified API and are not affected by this.

@tallison I'm sure Fedi can also cheer you up, we have quality memes!

BoF in glib.

https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2025-14512

A flaw was found in glib. This vulnerability allows a heap buffer overflow and denial-of-service (DoS) via an integer overflow in GLib's GIO (GLib Input/Output) escape_byte_string() function when processing malicious file or remote filesystem attribute values.

We're so cooked
