Our global team, including @ondrej, worked around the clock to deliver PHP2Shell fixes: ~500 builds covering all 12 supported PHP versions, 10 Debian/Ubuntu releases and up to 4 architectures. Updates rolled out progressively over ~15 hours, with the rollout fully complete by 1:30 AM CEST.

why do people call LLM training on public website data “AI Copyright Infringement” when “six finger discount” is right there

RT: @sarrah_bellus Wow.

Albanians just set fire to the Supreme Court after it allowed Jared Kushner to buy land in the country against the their will.

@quad9dns How do I say "THAT'S FUCKING INSANE!" in French!?

The French courts yesterday handed down an unfavorable ruling against Quad9 in a major case that undermines the transparency and stability of the internet. As a result, Quad9 will no longer be able to offer its free cyberprotection service to users located in France effective November 24.

(yes it's PHP)

After a few failed attempts over the years, I'm really happy to finally have a working, reliable and fast dual-stack ipv4/ipv6 setup at home. Best of all, connections to Europe have around 30ms less latency. It doesn't sound like much, but I can feel it.

@mechko That is both tragic and hilarious!

Just think about all the folks downloading the PHP patches through a connection that is part of MITM attack, because their curl or whatever is still using the emSign Root CA.

I just want to say thanks to the Debian Security Team for making my life sooooo much easier. For the most part, if I keep my system up to date I can switch my brain off.

In years of running many Debian systems for many people, I've never had a serious incident involving something that the Debian security team could've done anything about. Really stellar work and I'm sure many people don't even realise how much they benefit from it!

@b0rk I badly want to use anything else than vim, but then I keep inserting random i's everywhere.

@demoographics You're not alone.

If you're still using PHP 5... something is very wrong in your life.

Now that the updates are out, and I can finally show the article for php2shell

This has been long in the making, as I was part of the disclosure process and helped with liaising to (amongst others) CERT-Bund.

I'm glad this is out, even though it leaked a day ahead of time.

Now, it's time to watch the web burn, I'm afraid.

@froztbyte Some have direct ipv6 on gpon, others provide their own 6to4 tunnel but it's not well advertised. I'm on Rocketnet, they do an l2tp tunnel for ipv6 users who are on active ethernet (like me on Vumatel). I used the HE 6to4 tunnel in the past, but I think half of ZA ipv6 users used it at one point and it seemed to be somewhat congested/unreliable compared to the ISP connection (ISP ipv6 routes seem to be better than their ipv4 routes)

My ISP is just moving their customers from having public IP addresses to being behind cgnat with no prior communication. At least IPv6 works in South Africa now... if you manually configure it, but this is quite terrible if it becomes the norm now, and makes it increasingly important for everyone to use and support IPv6, we need to spread more awareness in ZA about this.

My home LXC to Incus migration went a lot better this time than a few years ago when I tried moving to LXD. My only issue is I keep typing "incust" instead of "incus". But muscle memory should improve over time.

@jwildeboer Yikes, $328m is not chump change.
