Hatte damals ein kleinen Abriss zur im Ampel Koalitionsvertrag geplanten Digitalpolitik geschrieben: https://www.lwgl.xyz/blog/essay/digital-policy/2022/die-ampel-steht-auf-chaos/

...leider war die Umsetzungsquote dürftig.

TLDR: Ein einziges Policy-Feld ist nichts worauf die Wahlentscheidung basieren sollte.

Service toot for sysadmin folks:

There's six vulnerabilities in #rsync, including a CVSS of 9.8: "In the most severe CVE, an attacker only requires
anonymous read access to a rsync server, such as a public mirror, to
execute arbitrary code on the machine the server is running on."

Full report of all six vulnerabilities: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/01/14/3

The most critical vulnerability (CVE-2024-12084) seems to be fixed in Debian Stable atm: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/rsync

Interesting read but i am not sure if i agree.
Professionalism in this area usually means more compliance and you can't achieve more security with more compliancy.

Hello, I am a cybersecurity engineer with specialties in networking, Linux, cloud security, and burning myself with a soldering iron, with near-as-makes-no-difference three decades of experience, and I just went rounds with AWS because I had a fucking space at the end of an ARN in an IAM policy.

In case you were feeling impostor syndrome-y today.
