7 Ways to Prevent Privilege Escalation via Password Resets

Password resets are often weaker than login security, making them a prime target for privilege escalation. Specops Software explains how attackers abuse reset workflows and how to secure them.

The Most Organized Threat Actors Use Your ITSM (BMC FootPrints Pre-Auth Remote Code Execution Chains)

SolarWinds. Ivanti. SysAid. ManageEngine. Giants of the KEV world, all of whom have ITSM side-projects. ITSMs, as a group of solutions, have played pivotal roles in numerous ransomware gang campaigns - not only do they represent code running on a system, but they hold a significant amount of sensitive information.

Just pre-ordered #jolla #phone. I realized I just can't endanger some apps from #fdroid, mostly #authentication and #security apps. If #google continues with their plan to attempt #appstore monopoly, I have now safe path to #degoogle.

I really don't have much choice here. Sure some #android games are nice, but it's the security stuff nowadays that make me choose phones.

I own two phones because they occasionally break, I have had few incidents. I'm entering some verification, MFA, password every day, and one phone is too risky single point of failure. The new Jolla will replace old #oukitel brick as a backup. If all goes well, it might one day be my main phone.

Phone manufacturers should also watch out. I have decades history with #samsung phones, but they lose a customer too, unless they don't step up.

Glad I started looking into my KDE startup time issue. H/t to @20000lbs_of_Cheese and @alci for some hints!

It's looking like there's a ~30 second timeout while *something* waits for fingerprint authentication. Nothing's prompting me for it, and I could have sworn I set this up the same on my work laptop. 🀷

Now I need to dig back into my pam/fprintd config.
