=== qwebirc98511 is now known as AnthonyMarin === jcbjoe_ is now known as jcb2016 [00:25] I'm trying to figure out how my system got the malware. I was thinking it could be the apt vulnerability. My version is Ubuntu 16.04.5. Is this vulnerable? [00:31] zumba_addict, what makes you think your system is vulnerable? [00:31] i uploaded it to virustotal [00:31] and what malware are you talking about? [00:31] and I saw all the connection going to brazil [00:31] the malware is a miner [00:31] let me get the exact name [00:32] Misc.Riskware.BitcoinMiner.Linux [00:33] I found an article that examined it. It's the exact of what I've found though with different target ip addresses [00:33] zumba_addict: so you downloaded a cryptocurrency miner and uploaded it to a site that is telling you it is malware? [00:34] i didn't download a cryptocurrency miner. I noticed my system was 99% cpu [00:34] and it was extremely slow [00:34] I ran ps and saw a process but without a name, I ls -lrt /proc/pid [00:34] i saw it pointed to /tmp [00:35] zumba_addict: ok, so what file did you upload? How did you find it? Do you have your computer connected directly to the internet or through a router? Do you have any ports forwarded? SSH? http? RDP? [00:35] !enter | zumba_addict [00:35] zumba_addict: Please try and keep as much of your info as possible on ONE line - easier to follow for everyone. [00:35] there were files [00:35] ok [00:36] oh ic, do you have a webserver running? [00:36] There were 2 processes. One with a name but process name was a hash string. The other process was empty but I found it in /proc/pid. One is an ELF file and the other is a shell script which downloads to ngrok.io [00:36] yes, I have a webserver running in DigitalOcean [00:36] php-fpm vulnerability [00:37] I am not sure if nginx was running that [00:37] My app is javascript [00:37] I saw an ssh session from Jan 15. I am not sure how that ip was able to ssh as root [00:39] https://usn.ubuntu.com/3875-1/ maybe this is involved [00:40] CVE-2019-2422 [00:40] ok, looking [00:40] openjdk is java [00:41] also oracle, " CVE: CVE-2019-2422. Remote: Yes. Local: No." nasty [00:41] Hey guys....any hot topic on Ubuntu? [00:41] so looking at my traffic, I only had a huge network spike yesterday. I looked at my traffic from DIgitalOcean's dashboard for the past week. It was clean until yesterday [00:42] The only thing I remember doing was installing docker containers [00:42] Just out of curiosity any Ubuntu enthousiast from the Carribean in here [00:43] but if it was the container, why would the malware be installed in host machine [00:43] My next guess was the apt tool which was publicly mentioned it was vulnerable [00:44] I ran apt yesterday or few days ago [00:44] I just did an apt distupgrade [00:46] I'm being asked if I should update menu.lst, how important is this file? [00:49] what's up with the new apt updates? regressions due to CVE-2019-3462? additional security issues? [00:49] not really, with sudo update-grub it will look for it, and if not found, grub will ask to regenerate a fresh one [00:50] Can anyone advise on how to use whatsapp on Ubuntu without having to use my smartphone? [00:50] still weird that it asks [00:50] OerHeks: I wasn't sure what choice I should pic [00:50] menu.lst is for GRUB1 [00:50] ..so that seems odd [00:50] ah, that explains it [00:51] how do I find out which grub my ubuntu is running? [00:52] Maybe do apt-cache policy grub grub2 [00:52] k [00:52] dpkg -l | grep grub | grep ii [00:52] ... if both are installed I'd purge the grub package and reinstall the grub2 package [00:52] https://pastebin.com/B9PqWYzz [00:53] what kind of server is this? started as 8.04 or so ? [00:53] https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/apt [00:53] it's provided by Digital Ocean [00:53] 1.6.6ubuntu0.1 came out a few days ago [00:53] https://pastebin.com/G4rAdh7T [00:54] Heh, it's saying you're not using either GRUB [00:54] i saw (not installe), I was like :D [00:54] its probably a container or VPS [00:54] is 1.6.8 a feature upgrade or a security upgrade? [00:54] it is a vps [00:55] reinstall and restore from backup [00:55] i ran this command - sudo apt-get dist-upgrade from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Security/Upgrades [00:55] Hello all, having an issue with permissions on my NFS share. I reloaded ubuntu from scratch after and issue and copied by exports and fstab back in, installed everything and my NFS shares from my raid array are seen by my windows machines, but says I don't have permissions. Here is a paste bin with the log, and fstab exports [00:55] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/NcgSvNr3j9/ [00:56] because of this - https://usn.ubuntu.com/3863-1/ [00:56] brakiss: check local permissions [00:56] zumba_addict: There seems to be a discussion about this at https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/ubuntu-new-boot-grub-menu-lst-after-apt-get-upgrade [00:56] thank you [00:57] dpkg -l | grep apt | grep ii [00:57] I thought we were discussing how to deal with an exploit? Not how to get grub installed on a VPS [00:58] Can't believe no one from DIgitalOcean responded [00:58] I pasted the output earlier OerHeks [00:58] here it is again :) https://pastebin.com/G4rAdh7T [00:59] so one of the person in that thread deleted menu.lst before doing the upgrade, he said his system was still fine [00:59] I'll just select "keep the local version currently installed" [01:00] zumba_addict: was your system compromised? [01:00] yes [01:00] Then none of this matters. reinstall and restore from backup [01:00] ok [01:03] I just hope that DigitalOcean updated their base images [01:04] zumba_addict: its not up to them to secure your server [01:04] k [01:04] zumba_addict: running a public server requires proper administration and maintenance [01:05] that's true but it would be nice if they can comply to reduce issue [01:05] there's nothing wrong with their images [01:06] there was nothing wrong until a new vulnerability was produce. I was guessing it could be an apt vulnerability which I posted earlier [01:06] That's where your maintenance responsibility comes in [01:07] so now if I reinstall from the same image which has the hack and machines gets owned right away, what should we do then? [01:07] or the huge java update, those are triggers for unpatchedsystems [01:08] if we will not fix the source, it will be hard to prevent [01:08] zumba_addict: You secure your server during it's installation/config [01:08] zumba_addict: if you cannot do that, then you should not be running your own public server. [01:09] that's true but if apt was the vulnerable, how can we secure that [01:09] zumba_addict: that's what updates are for [01:09] If updates have provided the fix, were you already infected or patched too late? hard to find out. [01:09] that's true but I disagree [01:10] zumba_addict: You disagree with what is true? [01:10] the updates since it runs after you've installed the system [01:11] zumba_addict: that's how this works [01:11] there is a flaw then [01:11] that's me. Other thinks differently [01:11] zumba_addict: That's how ALL operating systems work. You release an image and you release updates as they get fixed. [01:11] I don't want to install from a source that contains vulnerabilty [01:12] zumba_addict: please just learn how to properly run a public server or pay someone else to do it properly [01:12] We do it differently at work. We create new base images and users will use it for their new deployment [01:12] good luck [01:12] anybody got an idea for me on my NFS permissions [01:12] ? [01:13] btw, please shut that instance down ASAP since it's potentially contributing to the malware/spam/garbage on the rest of the internet as we speak [01:13] Brakiss: check local permissions [01:13] So for example, payment server is affected with apt. However, apt is not being executed on that machine. Us, we find out there is a vulnerablity in apt. We will make new AMI base images. And. we'll just tell users to redeploy their instances. There are no changes of infection [01:14] @leftyfb rather a novice, where would I check those? When I look at them they both are owned by my username [01:14] unlike the approach you mentioned which still uses the uncorrected base image, there is still a chance that can infect environments [01:14] So why not fix the base image first, before running it like an antivirus [01:15] What I'm trying to achieve here is immutable infrastructure where I don't want to make changes on my system but rather provision a new one using the newly fixed image [01:17] This all seems pretty far off the rails for this particular channel [01:39] hello, I'm trying to "listen" to audio going into the linein/microphone with the audio out device (basically pass through audio from the input to the output) but can't seem to get it to listen. [02:01] I'm really stumped at this point. I cannot get GRUB 2.0.2 to respond to my changing of settings according to numerous different sources. Does 2.0.2 not pull settings from /etc/default/grub? [02:02] I have one OS, have wiped the drive fully multiple times, and it ALWAYS shows up, no matter what I change. Only seems to happen with strictly Ubuntu based OSes so far though (Ubuntu and Lubuntu) but not others (Solus Budgie)? [02:03] qwebirc40908: EFI? [02:03] GRUB should use whatever is in the /etc/default/grub file, if you issue: sudo update-grub after editing the file ... and the changes made were valid [02:03] ah right, update-grub [02:04] I've used update-grub after every change, and nothing has ever happened, despite the changes still being there after restarting [02:04] It does come back as valid from what I see though, it successfully updates [02:04] qwebirc40908: what setting are you trying to change? [02:05] I would love to just hide it, so I've been changing GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET mostly, tried a few others that others reported working [02:05] so it's just a fast boot without GRUB popping up as there's one OS [02:07] GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash" [02:07] yeah that's been in there by default [02:08] has not effected anything despite being in the file since install [02:13] Usually just 2 lines, GRUB_TIMEOUT = 0 and GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER = true ..should do it [02:15] ..possibly with GRUB_DEFAULT = 0 if there's multiple kernels and you want it to just always boot the latest one which is installed [02:21] I've double checked that they're there, and made sure it's configuring correctly, it finds all the kernels and adds a boot menu entry for EFI firmware configuration, but still is stuck with default settings on the GRUB menu, literally no changes === adikwok1 is now known as adikwok === deathonater is now known as Smeef [03:05] HELP!!! [03:06] Desperately trying to install Ubuntu 18.04.1 Server **without** configuring the network, but it's stuck in a loop. [03:06] Can I install it _withut_ network access? [03:08] jilocasin: not with the live installer, perhaps with the alternate one [03:10] Getting an error when formatting a disk to install ubuntu, "Failed to get paritition # on device '[device name]' (udisks-error-quark, 0)", what am I supposed to do? [03:10] I've down loaded the 800MB ISO. is there another one? [03:10] jilocasin: you've gotta get the full image, the smaller one only has enough on it to download there rest of the files [03:13] no, that should be the right one... [03:14] can someone help me out with a sound problem [03:15] How can I report a bug in grub-efi-amd64-signed? My problem is actually on Linux Mint, but the bug reporting address there is an unconfigured bugzilla, and I cannot join #LinuxMint -- however, the package is hosted on the Ubuntu repositories, and the Linux Mint docs say to file an Ubuntu bug instead if that is the case. However, the Ubuntu bugzilla "Report a bug" link directs me to the Ubuntu community [03:15] website describing how to collect information about the package and whatever, which doesn't actually apply because I'm not using Ubuntu. So... I'm kind of lost. Anyway, the bug is that it is invoking efibootmgr(8) with a -d argument with no value (confirmed with strace): https://paste.debian.net/plainh/ed6b1d13 -- This is probably due to /, /boot, and /boot/efi being mdraid (level 1) devices. I also got [03:15] this error when I installed the OS, which I worked around by invoking grub-install with '--no-nvram', but I can't see how to do that here, now that it's trying to reinstall it after an apt update. [03:15] coon_ state the problem and someone might answer it if they have an answer [03:15] no link to the full installer on the website. [03:15] :( [03:16] it is the 812mb file you have [03:16] amdj: mint isn't supported here, sadly. In *ubuntu* you would be able to just use ubuntu-bug I don't know how Mint handles bug reports [03:16] ubuntu server is rather... bare compared to desktop [03:16] SlidingHorn: right, but as I said, it's a bug in an Ubuntu package. [03:16] I know, I was looking for the installer that I could install *without* configuring network. [03:17] amdj: It doesn't matter if ubuntu is the upstream if it's broken in a downstream distro. There's no way for us to know why it specifically has issues in *that* distro [03:17] amdj: unless you reproduce it on ubuntu we can't help [03:17] im running a hidef tv hdmi plugged in and on the sound settings it shows the hdmi and a digital output built in but shows the output as for the built in audio not the hdmi so i have no sound and dont know how to fix it [03:19] Alternatively, how can I mark a package as successfully installed so that `apt-get -f' stops trying to "fix" it every time? because it's already installed of course. [03:20] (it invokes efibootmgr after copying all the files into place etc. so everything is done really. it's just because it's incorrectly invoking efibootmgr that it thinks install failed) [03:21] amdj: again, we don't support mint [03:21] !mint [03:21] The Ubuntu channels can only provide support for Ubuntu and its official flavors, since other distributions and derivatives have repository and software changes. So please use their dedicated support venues, for example: Linux Mint (#linuxmint-help on irc.spotchat.org), Kali Linux (#kali-linux), and LXLE (#lxle) [03:22] I'm not asking for support with Mint. Technically I'm asking how to use a Debian thing (apt(8)), so I'll try #debian. [03:22] Thanks anyway.

[04:20] does Ubuntu (or Linux/Xorg in general) support the ATI IGP Xpress 1150? [04:20] From what I've researched so far, it should use the fglrx driver. [04:21] XenophonF: fglrx is no longer supported/working [04:21] but in bionic that's just a transitional package for ubuntu-drivers-common [04:21] dang it, well that answers that [04:24] XenophonF: it works in 14.04 (which goes eol in april), and maybe in 16.04.0 as long as you don't install later hwe packages [04:24] not sure about that last one [04:26] I'd be ok with the regular VESA driver if it was able to power down the laptop's display. [04:26] It'd be even better if I could coax it to use the full resolution. [04:27] i can't comment on that, i'm afraid [04:29] so Ubuntu 14.04 [04:29] maybe I'll try that [04:30] thanks for your help [04:30] or 16.04.0, as i mentioned [04:30] just avoid hwe [04:30] it's supported until 2021 [04:31] ok === Dreaman is now known as Blade [05:22] hi [05:22] bfgnmio;h'pbguycv === sinner is now known as Guest47920 === rudy is now known as Guest68375 === dan_ is now known as Guest39920 === sinner is now known as Guest56418 [06:17] hi [06:17] welcome yhx [06:18] hello [06:18] yhx: how can we help you today [06:19] ?

I have an Ubuntu with KDE here and want to setup ibus. I am not an Ubuntu Admin, normally i work with Gentoo or Archlinux system and there you set the variables in ~/.xprofile, but this seems to not work in ubuntu. I found the information in the Ubuntu Users wiki that you're supposed to put it into the ~/.bashrc but this also doesnt work. [07:08] So what special magic causes Ubuntu to nor use the ~/.xprofile and how can i change that?

[07:12] !details | nojimon [07:12] nojimon: Please elaborate; your question or issue may not seem clear or detailed enough for people to help you. Please give more detailed information; for example, we might need errors, steps, relevant configuration files, Ubuntu version, and hardware information. Use a !pastebin to avoid flooding the channel.

[07:16] nojimon: ubuntu version? kernel version? singleboot/dualboot? graphics card chipset? [07:16] nojimon: you've mentioned the command you need to use like ten times now. it is 'dmesg'. [07:16] lotuspsychje, what command will give you all the information you require uname -a ? [07:17] nojimon: lets start from the beginning please, you downloaded an ubuntu version, you should know wich version?

[07:18] nojimon: do you actually have a problem with the machine or are you just thinking there's a problem because you see an error? [07:18] try 'dmesg | less' and go through the "pages" with space [07:18] yes i have an issue and i want to fix [07:19] thank you [07:19] lotuspsychje will get feedback from them, thank you.

[08:31] I heard that linux distributions are hard to get a virus [08:31] depends on how careful you are [08:31] What do you mean ? [08:32] its a bit harder than most coz your software is curated in the repos [08:32] by repos you mean apt-get ? [08:32] you can get yourself infected, tho, if you explore and install random ass software from somehwerer on the interwebs [08:32] yeah [08:32] oh, [08:33] its the same as any OS really [08:33] just be careful and you sould be fine [08:34] johnp: linux isn't as big a target as windows, so there's less malware for it out there [08:34] In windows there was a security flaw that ransomware could encrypt all your files. Because of an update [08:34] true [08:34] is possible for ubuntu to be effected like that [08:35] i mean, sure, but the chances are much slimmer i think. . . ? [08:35] possible - yes, likely - not really [08:35] linux being open source and all so a lot of people are working to make sure it works and is safe [08:36] in general [08:36] Alright thanks for anwsering my questions !

Unlocked LUKS containers are under /dev/mapper/ [09:50] the luks- from your previous post, that's the mapped name probably [09:50] yep, and that's not mounted anywhere either [09:50] can you mount it manually? [09:51] trying [09:52] mount: /media: unknown filesystem type 'LVM2_member'. [09:52] that's the output from 'sudo mount /dev/mapper/luks-96d5b606-7ca6-41db-913b-649df8353da1 /media' [09:53] zetheroo: that's not a file system but an LVM2 PV [09:53] run lvmdiskscan or pvscan [09:54] ok https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/GgY3Zc2D29/ [09:57] zetheroo: lvs shows the logical volumes, which you can then activate (lvchange -ay ubuntu-vg/) and mount [09:57] thats assuming those LVs contain file systems, but that's usually so. [09:58] is luks-96d5b606-7ca6-41db-913b-649df8353da1 the LVNAME? [10:00] zetheroo: "lvs" shows all LVs [10:00] luks-96d5b606-7ca6-41db-913b-649df8353da1 is a PV [10:01] https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/p6JGTSxFkY/ [10:01] so 'root' is the LVNAME? [10:02] right [10:02] oh you have two [10:02] yes [10:02] you may also have identically named vulume groups backed by different PVs, thats a bit dangerous [10:03] as it can easily cause human error [10:04] hmm ... Ok, I think I better just boot off of the SSD and copy the data off then [10:04] I was unaware that Ubuntu couldn't just unlock and mount the disk like any other USB disk via Nautilus [10:06] zetheroo: it can. it's possible that LVM, or multiple groups named the same, caused it not to. [10:06] zetheroo: it normally can, but maybe not with a somewhat complex layering of block devices [10:07] yeah, I'll play it safe :) [10:07] yeah for filesystems straight on LUKS, it works fine. EXCEPT if you mistype the passphrase. it won't ask twice. [10:07] zetheroo: if you run the pvs / vgs / lvs with --verbose you'll get to see the UUIDs, which should be unique [10:08] anyone goinf [10:09] anyone going to fosdem? [10:09] could someone help me with this strange issue? https://bpaste.net/show/1bcb8a3f38b0 [10:09] !ot | stereo_ [10:09] stereo_: #ubuntu is the Ubuntu support channel, for all Ubuntu-related support questions.

[10:09] it seems a input buffer problem [10:09] tomreyn, I've already talked about this with spigot devs [10:09] they think is not Spigot issue [10:10] it looks like coming from my system [10:10] a problem with jline [10:11] wyre: you should probably turn to a java programming or minecraft development channel [10:11] this isnt software in ubuntu [10:12] tomreyn, maybe should I report an issue in jline repo?

[10:13] ok, ty anyway [10:14] wyre: well, you've been told this a number of times now :) wasting your time here, this has nothing to do with ubuntu. === SleepyTurtle1 is now known as SleepyTurtle [10:40] now I am trying to boot from this SSD and it's getting to 'give root password for maintenance' ... but there is no root password set [10:43] yeah, welcome to ubuntu's broken concept of root never having a password set so when you reach these emergency situations, you're fubar. === SleepyTurtle1 is now known as SleepyTurtle [10:43] booting into Live session now [10:49] I tried 'lvchange -ay ubuntu-vg/root' and get 'WARNING: Device for PV ...... not found or rejected by filter' [10:50] zetheroo: just come in but... is the underlying device NVME? [10:50] hi [10:50] Hey. In arch there is infinality ultimate, is there an equivalent in ubuntu? [10:51] TJ-: No [10:51] TJ-: it's an SSD [10:52] can i send to channel or to i need a registered nick [10:53] we can see your message ubuntnoob [10:54] zetheroo: LVM (in /etc/lvm/lvm.conf and lvmlocal.conf) has options that can filter the names/paths of devices and accept or reject them. "rejected by filter" in your error message may indicate that is the problem. What is the path to the underlying device (the PV itself) ? [10:54] TJ-: I am in a Live session - don't know if that makes a diff [10:55] /dev/sda5 ? [10:56] it's unlocked (asked for passphrase) and /dev/mapper/luks... is linked to ../dm-0 [10:57] zetheroo: Hmmm, I doubt it would in that case. Is the underlying VG active? as in "vgchange -ay ubuntu-vg" [10:57] /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root is linked to ../dm-1 [10:58] zetheroo: in which case it is active [10:58] I made a BIOS update which cause some error in the boot process (Grub error 17 in stage 1.5). I use a boot-repair-disc on usb which has an auto boot fix script. This is outputting the following text -- GPT detected. Please create a BIOS-Boot partition (>1MB, unformatted filesystem, bios_grub flag). This can be performed via tools such as Gparted. Then try again. [10:58] oh, hey ... I mounted /dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-root to /media and I can see the data! [10:59] Alternatively, you can retry after activating the [Separate /boot/efi partition:] option. [10:59] zetheroo: indeed :) [10:59] any clue what i should do.. [10:59] Why doesn't it mount automatically when unlocked though? [11:00] zetheroo: because you've not told it to automount ? [11:01] zetheroo: user-based automounted relies on the udisks daemon and the desktop environment via GVFS/GIO - I've not noticed if it does automount LVs [11:01] TJ-: how do you tell it to, or not to, automount? === Mr_Pan is now known as Guest35689 [11:03]
