Anyone happens to know if there's any easy trick to bypass an Incapsula "security firewall" that thinks downloading with curl/wget is an attack to be prevented? (It's not just the user agent, I tried that.)
The researchers responsible for 5 of the 6 rsync CVEs first publicly disclosed in January 2025 have now published their writeup in @phrack Magazine, including attack scenarios and exploitation techniques https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/08/19/1

rsync: 6 CVEs https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/01/14/3
Two independent groups of researchers identified a total of 6 CVEs in rsync. In the most severe CVE (affects rsync 3.2.7+), an attacker only requires anonymous read access to a rsync server, such as a public mirror, to execute arbitrary code.

@davidgerard This comment to the video seems on spot:
It seems McKinsey aren't aware that "agentic AI" is just an LLM that can utter some magic incantations that do stuff. It's like a difference between a chimpanzee with a typewriter vs a chimpanzee with a typewriter and a gun.
