Just How Dangerous Is Europe’s Rising Far Right?

Reply in thread

Europeans: *go further right again after decades of conservative and social democrat governments chopping on welfare programs and privatisations in the name of austerity measures, economical crises, and following USA agenda right into geopolitical irrelevance, while attempting to show themselves as the moral lighthouse*

Lemmitors: "It's the left's fault".

How do you track security vulnerabilities?

My distribution (archlinux) notifies of critical vulnerabilities that require user action. There's a news mailing list.

After that I rely on social network (Mastodon mostly) or lemmy for news, as vulnerabilities often get some conversation. Apart from that, software i'm really interested in I also follow through RSS so I get news when they update for their vulnerabilities -that is when the vulnerabilities are not self inflicted as the xz case-.

CVE-2024-3094: Urgent alert for Fedora Linux 40 and Rawhide users

Reply in thread

Gonna take a bit. The dudes been doing the releases for over a year, everything they touched is suspect now even if nothing earlier is known. Also some other associated accounts have been doing shady stuff too.

gonna take even a bit more now. Github closed the account and project making it really difficult to see their commits and merges and analyze them.

I can't edit /etc/default/grub

That looks like the grub file that's put in /boot to make the menu to boot the system.

Are you sure you've never run "grub2-mkconfig -o /etc/default/grub"? Because making the grub file you may have overwritten the config file.

By the look of things I would reinstall grub with my package manager to forcing to overrun config files. Keep in mind this would return the file to your distribution defaults.
