[02:51] <lotuspsychje> good morning
[06:29] <marcoagpinto> v
[06:29] <marcoagpinto> Heya
[06:29] <daftykins> morn \o
[07:58] <ducasse> good morning
[11:05] <marcoagpinto> my dear brothers :)))))))))
[15:15] <marcoagpinto> guys?!
[15:15] <marcoagpinto> [15:00] <@Nbot> Linux Kernel up to 5.11.6 RPC Message drivers/misc/fastrpc.c fastrpc_internal_invoke unknown vulnerability -- https://vuldb.com/?id.171251
[15:15] <marcoagpinto> what is this?
[15:16] <marcoagpinto> it appeared in a security channel on DALnet
[16:38] <daftykins> not even gonna click to see tbh
[16:57] <leftyfb> marcoagpinto: maybe let the channel of Dalnet do the troubleshooting? This isn't a help channel, nor are we going to assist someone from another network and channel communicating through you
[18:41] <marcoagpinto> leftyfb: ahhhh... sorry... I was sleeping
[18:41] <marcoagpinto> daftykins: leftyfb: it was a bot who wrote that on DALnet
[18:41] <marcoagpinto> no one speaks in that channel... only the bot
[18:42] <marcoagpinto> I was just wondering about exploits in kernel since I believe we have 5.8
[18:42] <marcoagpinto> and the link talks about 5.11 which is higher
[19:47] <marcoagpinto> :)
[19:47] <marcoagpinto> sorry... I got disconnected
[19:48] <marcoagpinto> I don't know if someone replied
[19:48] <marcoagpinto> [18:42] <marcoagpinto> and the link talks about 5.11 which is higher
[19:50] <leftyfb> marcoagpinto: nobody replied because you have yet to post anything that warrants a reply. What is your question exactly?
[19:51] <marcoagpinto> ahhhhh
[19:51] <marcoagpinto> to know if there is a vulnerability with 5.8 which I believe is the one that comes with 20.04
[19:51] <marcoagpinto> it is below 5.11
[19:52] <marcoagpinto> and if there is, if soon there will be a fix
[20:01] <leftyfb> marcoagpinto: you're asking if a fix for ubuntu has been released for a vulnerability in the linux kernel announced about 4 hours ago? The answer is no, a fix has not been released yet
[20:01] <marcoagpinto> :(((((((((((
[20:03] <leftyfb> marcoagpinto: in the meantime, don't let hackers onto your local network and you'll be fine "The attack needs to be done within the local network. A simple authentication is necessary for exploitation"
[20:04] <leftyfb> marcoagpinto: if you care that much(you shouldn't) feel free to patch your kernel: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=20c40794eb85ea29852d7bc37c55713802a543d6
[20:05] <marcoagpinto> how?! why?!
[20:05] <marcoagpinto> ahhhhh
[20:06] <Bashing-om> New kernel for focal is out: 5.4.0-67-generic .
[20:06] <Bashing-om> !info linux-image-generic focal
[20:07] <leftyfb> Bashing-om: does it have the above patch?
[20:08] <Bashing-om> leftyfb: Got me - have not investigated.
[20:09] <leftyfb> last line from the changelog shows it's from Feb 19th
[20:10] <Bashing-om> leftyfb: I have rebooted since the new kernel - let me check my logs and see if there is info.
[20:16] <Bashing-om> leftyfb: Nope - my logs do not reflect the patch info :(
[21:01] <Bashing-om> UWN Issue 674 is on the streets: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuWeeklyNewsletter/Issue674 :D
