Our paper, with @plumtrie and M. Marcozzi, on how CI can stop #backdoor injection in source code at commit (or release) time using fuzzing, is now available: arxiv.org/abs/2607.26719

It comes with real, working code that FOSS projects and #security auditors can adopt. The paper artifact shows how effective it is on real-world, historical backdoors.

With #Android, you can often switch to a different ROM. However, if you don't get updates from the original vendor (via original ROM or alternative ROM which uses the vendor patches which require vendor support), you accumulate all unpatched bugs that are below the OS level. Therefore, it's a risk you're taking here although you've switched to an hopefully up to date OS. 😞

Best bet: only buy HW with vendor security support as long as possible. 5-7 years is good. Furthermore, for #privacy and #security reasons I'd recommend using #GrapheneOS right from the start. So you need to choose models that are supported by that.

🛡️ Ich bin auf der Suche nach einem guten CTI (Cyber Thread Intelligence) Aggregator. Ich habe schon ein wenig recherchiert, möchte aber vermeiden, jeden Dienst einzeln zu testen.

Wichtig sind mir folgende Dinge:

  • viele seriöse Quellen
  • sehr aktuelle Infos
  • wenig Redundanz
  • Alters / Notifications
  • Definition von priorisierten Themen / Filtern
  • Verlinkung zu weiteren Details
  • externe Verlinkung für Kunden

Open Source, frei und Self-Hosted wäre natürlich top. Kann auch gern ein bezahlter Service sein. Und wenn es für so einen Service auch eine Smartphone App gäbe (iOS), wäre das das Sahnehäubchen.

Worauf muss man besonders achten? Was sind eure Empfehlungen und Tipps?

dear everyone, if you're using ANY password in more than one place, go get a password manager and start using random passwords *everywhere* -- this is not a Mastodon issue, this is a web login issue. I highly recommend Bitwarden.

IMPORTANT PASSWORD SECURITY/PRIVACY ISSUE
----

For everyone:

If you are using the same password for Mastodon that you use anywhere else, CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD NOW.

A hacker is stealing accounts on Mastodon using something called “credential stuffing.” This means they use email/password combinations stolen from other sites.

This is a common hacking technique. But right now someone is targeting Mastodon accounts.

This is not a security flaw with Mastodon. Someone is just using it across Mastodon.

You can check if your email is in a data breach elsewhere:

haveibeenpwned.com

Create a new strong password:

1. 12+ characters
2. Capital/lowercase letters
3. At least one special character

For admins:

The hacker is using the same unique user agent.

Go-http-client/1.1

We’re seeing a pattern of IPs, but they’re from varying ISPs. They’re also not changing the account emails.

Gypsy on the move?


Spring. Time of change, a good time and good changes. Well I HAVE to believe that right now. Last Sunday I was informed that GOA is going on the market and I must find alternative arrangements, for work and to stay. I know EXACTLY what I want to do with the last few years of my life, and to that end I am attempting to make a decent CV. I want to get out of been so much cyberspace firstly. Then I NEED to grow stuff and make gardens like at Zwavelpoort. I also would like to build real things with wood, not make photos of things, make some. I did put some feelers out and will start this week looking at these “organic” farms. Hope to find one in the Bush here, where I belong. Also an extra pair of …. trained eyes about the place will help with security. Well, wish me luck….

Will get my photos of all the gardens I have made over the years, from Maputo to Cape Town!!!
