Oopsies! “Seemingly as an accident, overnight several new Linux kernel vulnerability reports were posted to the public Linux kernel mailing list rather than the private security mailing list. The vulnerabilities have yet to be patched on mainline but at least in some cases there are patches undergoing testing or queued in "-next" branches. The CVSS scores are as high as 9.0.”

TP-Link will do anything to sell more routers in the US except provide timely and constant updates to software. They are not unique in this respect. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Quite a few people have sent me the "Passkeys are a trap. Do not use them." post on Substack.

The post recommends people abandon passkeys and stick to passwords + TOTP, citing what appears to be concerns with attestation as the primary reason.

I’ve written a rebuttal as this is really dangerous advice and it's based on some incorrect technical claims.

Really love how my Credit Union in California blocks its website from Korea and Japan. 🫤

I’m guessing the block is everywhere outside the US. Pathetic that I need my own VPN to get into my account.
