I like how this requires creating so many nested directories that the total file path length exceeds 1 GB. That’s nuts!
So my hidden porn folder is a security issue?
the only way to know it is doing a pen test.
Genuinely wondering why are so many system 0wning vulnerabilities being discovered this year? Not sure if this says something about security researchers stepping up their game or software security getting worse at the development level.
A few months ago, the University of Minnesota got themselves banned for submitting faulty patches to the Kernel.
Maybe security researchers currently focus on more security-related bugs which aren’t obvious at all, maybe it’s just a statistical accumulation of critical patches. Critical vulnerabilities get much more press nowadays and the researchers make up fancy names and webpages for their bugs.
In my opinion, it’s just a coincidence that you notice more of those vulnerabilities this year.
Maybe it’s not a mistake… remember, when windows developers find a bug, they first report it to the american agencies before patching it.
If I’m not mistaken this bug was present in the kernel for years and to be honest was extremely subtle in the first place
systemd is a gift that keeps on giving
