xz-utils backdoor situation (CVE-2024-3094)

FAQ on the xz-utils backdoor (CVE-2024-3094)

This is still a new situation. There is a lot we don't know. We don't know if there are more possible exploit paths. We only know about this one path. Please update your systems regardless.

This is a living document. Everything in this document is made in good faith of being accurate, but like I just said; we don't yet know everything about what's going on.

Concise guide to golang/dep

Overview

This gist is based on the information available at golang/dep, only slightly more terse and annotated with a few notes and links primarily for my own personal benefit. It's public in case this information is helpful to anyone else as well.

I initially advocated Glide for my team and then, more recently, vndr. I've also taken the approach of exerting direct control over what goes into vendor/ in my Dockerfiles, and also work from isolated GOPATH environments on my system per project to ensure that dependencies are explicitly found under vendor/.

At the end of the day, vendoring (and committing vendor/) is about being in control of your dependencies and being able to achieve reproducible builds. While you can achieve this manually, things that are nice to have in a vendoring tool include:

GitHub Standard Fork & Pull Request Workflow

Whether you're trying to give back to the open source community or collaborating on your own projects, knowing how to properly fork and generate pull requests is essential. Unfortunately, it's quite easy to make mistakes or not know what you should do when you're initially learning the process. I know that I certainly had considerable initial trouble with it, and I found a lot of the information on GitHub and around the internet to be rather piecemeal and incomplete - part of the process described here, another there, common hangups in a different place, and so on.

In an attempt to coallate this information for myself and others, this short tutorial is what I've found to be fairly standard procedure for creating a fork, doing your work, issuing a pull request, and merging that pull request back into the original project.

Creating a Fork

Just head over to the GitHub page and click the "Fork" button. It's just that simple. Once you've done that, you can use your favorite git client to clone your repo or j

Don't use VPN services.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

  • There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.

Accessing a subnet that is behind a WireGuard client using a site-to-site setup

Problem Summary

We want to access a local subnet remotely, but it is behind a NAT firewall and we can't setup port forwarding. Outgoing connections work, but all incoming connections get DROPPED by the ISP's routing policy.
