@da_667 I'm a fan of static site generators. Jekyll is an obvious option but Ruby is guaranteed Dependency Hell in the long run (I remember some fuckery even with Docker...). Hugo seems similar without the mess but I don't have experience with that one.

One the twelfth day of Christmas, the true goat gave to thee: https://infosec.press/screaminggoat/patch-tuesday , which is a list of vendors' security advisory landing pages and their #PatchTuesday schedule.

Disclaimer: Not every vendor is listed, and their patching cycle may be different than what I categorized them as, but it's a good starting point. Ideally, you'd be tracking the ones you care about using RSS anyway.

Merry Christmas Infosec Mastodon

@teotwaki @DerFetzer thanks, I'm quite picky about such things anyway :) I'm more puzzled about the knobs&dials one has to be familiar with to do things properly.

OK, this is my summary for today

#Rust

Hewlett Packard report that they are spotting AI-generated malware in the wild, not through complex analysis or watermarking, but because… it is weirdly well-commented. https://threatresearch.ext.hp.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/HP_Wolf_Security_Threat_Insights_Report_September_2024.pdf

I'm at about third of the 100 #Rust exercises and I think we just got to the "Draw the rest of the fucking owl" part 🖊

I find CVE-2024-40896 (Raptor/libxml2 XXE) very educational:

Based on the analysis[1] it's a nice example of Chesterton’s Fence[2], while its discovery[3] underlines the importance of automated testing for regressions and known dangerous behavior.
