Unlike what the buffoons at Theori published as a "mitigation", the folks at Red Hat actually published a viable mitigation for CopyFail CVE-2026-31431.

Specifically, edit your grub (or whatever you use to load your kernel) configuration to have one of the following arguments:
initcall_blacklist=algif_aead_init
initcall_blacklist=af_alg_init
initcall_blacklist=crypto_authenc_esn_module_init

With such boot arguments to the Linux kernel, the affected bits won't be reachable.

We just published a couple of the projects I've been working on this spring. https://primeradiant.com/blog/2026/greenfield-and-iterative-development.html

Greenfield is a set of tools to extract behavioral specs from existing codebases.

Iterative Development is a set of add-ons to Superpowers to tackle implementations of much larger specs.

A hundred and twenty years ago, the internet was a massively distributed system of eclectic knowledge, just with a lot higher latency and much longer time to first byte.
