EriC^^morning lotuspsychje05:45
EriC^^how are you?05:45
lotuspsychjegreat, chillin saturday :p05:45
EriC^^cool :D05:45
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: what your upto?05:45
EriC^^just woke up05:46
EriC^^wishing there was a mygrid to get me coffee05:46
EriC^^haha, it's damn cold05:47
solyo, is there a decent way of uninstalling sudo?05:47
solubuntu seems to want to take 'ubuntu-minimal' with it05:47
solwhich seems downright retarded to me05:47
lotuspsychjesol: what command did you enter?05:47
solapt remove sudo05:47
solapt purge sudo does the same05:47
lotuspsychjesudo is part of the ubuntu system05:47
lotuspsychjewe dont reccomend that05:47
lotuspsychjesol: but, its your system...05:48
solyeah I can take the risk, sudo is not something I'm used to05:48
soland given that it's had security holes a mile long (like every other complex setuid bin) I'd rather take that risk05:48
lotuspsychjewhat security holes?05:49
solyou mean like this? https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-118/product_id-200/Todd-Miller-Sudo.html05:49
lotuspsychjekeep your system up to date?05:49
solthat's like suggesting I run apache or nginx but keep it up to date when I'm not running a webserver05:50
solyou guys are absolutely baffling lol05:50
solI'm just going to rm the bin, thanks anyway hah05:51
lotuspsychjesol: its you, that wants a reverse thing05:51
lotuspsychjeits more risk to su then sudo05:51
solhow do you figure that?05:51
lotuspsychje!sudo05:51
ubot5sudo is a command to run command-line programs with superuser privileges ("root") (also see !cli). Look at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/RootSudo for more information. For graphical applications see !pkexec (for older releases: !gksu and !kdesudo). If you're unable to execute commands with sudo see: http://www.psychocats.net/ubuntu/fixsudo05:51
lotuspsychjeubuntu uses it and we like it05:52
Ben64could always use not ubuntu05:53
solor I could rm the bin just like I did?05:53
solyou're strangely defensive05:53
Ben64sure whatever floats your boat05:53
solit's crappy software, you're welcome to have it built in05:53
solI'm not saying remove it from the install05:53
Ben64it's not crappy05:53
lotuspsychjesol: you can only speak for your own system, on our end it works like a charm05:54
solsure, and it's one more potential area for security holes05:54
lotuspsychjemorning Jordan_U05:54
solit's like saying windows works great for you05:54
lotuspsychjesol: if you find a sudo security hole, come tell us ok?05:54
Ben64sol: opening up the root account is a security hole05:54
solI'm sure it does, but not being able to remove all unnecessary services & root-access apps is a security issue05:54
sollotuspsychje, I just gave you a list05:55
lotuspsychjesol: if you su, on a non-updated system your vulnerable too05:55
lotuspsychjeor run programs as root for longer time05:55
lotuspsychjesol: you silent now?05:58
solnah, just didn't want to type an essay05:59
lotuspsychjesol: if you join irc as root and dont have sudo to work with anymore..your a big risk05:59
solyou're an idiot if you run irc as root05:59
lotuspsychjesol: how you gonna solve that?05:59
lotuspsychjesol: you just said you only wanna use su?05:59
* sol facepalms05:59
solyou su for administrative tasks, if you want to run that risk06:00
solotherwise you login as root06:00
sol(again, for administrative tasks)06:00
solyou don't run a desktop as root06:00
soland you don't run network apps as root06:00
Ben64more of a security hole than sudo06:00
solI don't know why you'd think that06:01
solthere's no logical path to get there06:01
Ben64because it's true06:01
solsudo has had tons of security holes over the years06:02
solvery serious ones06:02
lotuspsychjenothing an update cant fix06:02
Ben64everything has had security holes over the years06:02
lotuspsychje+106:03
solI don't recall any security holes in su06:03
solthe greater the complexity of an app, and one that runs as setuid, has massively more risk06:03
lotuspsychjesol: again, its your system do what you want right?06:03
lotuspsychjebut we will work with sudo06:03
solif you want to reframe the discussion, sure06:04
solI'm not suggesting you don't06:04
solyou wanted to state that it's more secure06:04
solit's not, it's more convenient06:04
solthat's fine, people can run convenience all day on their system06:04
lotuspsychjesystem can be compromized all kinds of ways06:04
lotuspsychjeif you have su or sudo,doesnt matter06:05
solif you have _both_06:05
sollogically speaking, you are open for more security holes06:05
solare you not?06:05
Ben64by default you can't get to root with su in ubuntu06:05
lotuspsychjesol: more security holes depends on many things06:06
lotuspsychjesystem not up to date, running services,open ports,..06:06
solyep, less services = higher security06:06
solupdating for security updates more often = higher security06:07
lotuspsychjesol: lets say someone targets you, you will loose also with su06:07
solnope06:07
solspeak for yourself haha :)06:07
lotuspsychjesol: foolish to think your 100% secure06:08
solI have more layers than an onion, baby06:08
lotuspsychjemany onions end up in jail baby06:09
solmy comment had nothing to do with tor :p06:10
solanyway, this onion includes a jail06:10
solso funny you would say that :D06:10

lotuspsychjeBashing-om: artful kernel on xenial?06:17
lotuspsychjethats weird right06:17
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: I bet if we look at the release schedule that 16.04.3 has zesty kernel . I check .06:26
lotuspsychjehmm06:27
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: mean artful?06:28
lotuspsychjeEriC^^: your on xenial atm right, can you uname -a?06:29
EriC^^sure06:32
lotuspsychjeBashing-om: https://usn.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-3522-3/06:32
EriC^^Linux e 4.4.0-109-generic #132-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jan 9 19:52:39 UTC 2018 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux06:32
lotuspsychjekpti bug shows updated kernels like EriC^^06:32
lotuspsychjeso somethings wrong right06:32
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: 16.04.3 should install with the 4.10 kernel .. hummmm // 4.13 not scheduled 'til next month .06:33
acheronukBashing-om: it was brought forward, rather than fix the 4.10 from zesty06:35
acheronukhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/KnowledgeBase/SpectreAndMeltdown06:36
acheronuk"The Rolling HWE kernel for Ubuntu 16.04 will go to 4.13 early, instead of also fixing 4.10 HWE kernel."06:36
lotuspsychjeacheronuk: this user kermyt is on hwe then?06:37
Bashing-omacheronuk: Great to lnow .. who is qualified to update the HWE wiki : https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/RollingLTSEnablementStack ?06:37
acheronukI would guess so06:38
lotuspsychje<kermyt> Linux games 4.13.0-26-generic #29~16.04.2-Ubuntu06:38
acheronuklooks like the only people to edit that so far have been the kernel team themselves, so probably best left to them06:40
lotuspsychjeacheronuk: he said he just freshly downloaded 16.04.306:41
acheronuknot sure it needs an edit, as it's only a 'proposal' for schedule on that06:41
acheronuklotuspsychje: well, those isos habe no been respun06:41
acheronuk*have06:41
acheronukhttp://releases.ubuntu.com/16.04.3/ubuntu-16.04.3-desktop-amd64.manifest06:43
acheronuklinux-image-4.10.0-28-generic06:44
lotuspsychjehe says he updated system to latest06:45
lotuspsychjeand still on 4.1306:45
acheronukas the linux meta for that now rolls with the HWE one, any update would pull in the 4.1306:45
lotuspsychjeshould be correct on https://usn.ubuntu.com/usn/usn-3523-2/06:45
acheronukso it it correct he would be updated to 4.13 if did a full update06:46
lotuspsychjeok06:46
lotuspsychjeso the difference is from users that had 16.04.2 earlier to get to 4.4?06:50
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: 16.04.1 install remains on NON hwe : sysop@x1604:~$ uname -r >> 4.4.0-109-generic .06:53
acheronukyes, 16.04.1 did no have the HWE kernel meta packages, so stays on the native kernel unless you switch06:54
lotuspsychjekk06:55
Bashing-omlotuspsychje: So far as I am presently aware .. 32 bit remains broke in these late USN convolutions .06:57
lotuspsychjeok06:57
