@malwaretech fair enough ☺️
@malwaretech you should be able to create async functions in Python that should speed up everything?
@GossiTheDog you would have have it on rolling release distributions though and kali in a certain date window

As of the information we have currently, the following is true. Should more information come to light, we will continue to keep this situation updated.

The xz package, starting from versions 5.6.0 to 5.6.1, was found to contain a backdoor. This backdoor could potentially allow a malicious actor to compromise sshd authentication, granting unauthorized access to the entire system remotely. The impact of this vulnerability affected Kali between March 26th to March 29th. If you updated your Kali installation on or after March 26th, it is crucial to apply the latest updates today to address this issue. However, if you did not update your Kali installation before the 26th, you are not affected by this backdoor vulnerability.
