Mekaneck@Halis <Halis> (Sudoless keylogger to grab you sudo password) That's no virus and to retrieve the password one has to gain local access to the machine.08:36
MekaneckDo some more research....08:36
IrcsomeBot<Halis> Obviously a virus needs to run locally. But once it does, even with low non-sudo privilages, it can grab your key inputs and your enitre screen content. So saying viruses are harmless in Linux is probably incorrect or missleading (for most Desktops)11:46
mparillosudo protects your machine. It does not protect $HOME. The average Kubuntu user and nuke their installation from orbit and re-install in minutes, but recovering $HOME can be a whole lot more difficult. That said, many of the attack scenarios on Linux assume evil maids or laptops left in taxis.12:06
lefterisHi everyone!12:36
lefterisI have a question about Kubuntu. Am I in the correct channel?12:37
mparilloYes12:38
lefterisNice! I'm having a weird bug. When I open the volume menu from the taskbar, the audio stops for a bit and then it starts again. Am I doing something wrong?12:39
mparilloI have not seen it personally (but stay in the channel the whole time and ask again in a couple of hours, then maybe at different times of day). I expect that this is not kubuntu specific, so if you do not get an answer here, I would open a new bug, but against KDE, not Kubuntu: https://bugs.kde.org/enter_bug.cgi12:43
lefterisOkay! Thank you soo much then!12:48
IrcsomeBot<Halis> I think, it does not. I will maybe try later to write a script to capture the sudo password with a keylogger and see, if I can execute with that sudo password with sudo rights (re @IrcsomeBot: <mparillo> sudo protects your machine. It does not protect $HOME. The average Kubuntu user and nuke their installation from orbit and re-install in minutes, but recovering $HOME can be a whole lot more difficult. That said, many of the attack scenarios on13:28
IrcsomeBot<Halis> Maybe there is a mitigation for exactly this, but since lack of knowledge, I will just test it13:28
DragnslcrIf you can install a keylogger to capture the password of someone with sudo access, then the game is over13:31
DragnslcrBut that isn't a Kubuntu support issue, so discussion about it can go to an off-topic channel13:31

karthik_Hello.. any one here?13:48
lethukarthik_, yes go ahead and ask your question14:04
IrcsomeBot<Halis> I think, you did not understand the Problem. Installing something without sudo-rights is the potential Problem (basically running a simple script without sudo) (re @IrcsomeBot: <Dragnslcr> If you can install a keylogger to capture the password of someone with sudo access, then the game is over)14:20
IrcsomeBot<Halis> If you wish so (re @IrcsomeBot: <Dragnslcr> But that isn't a Kubuntu support issue, so discussion about it can go to an off-topic channel)14:20

Roeyhey anyone here using KDE on Wayland? What kind of remote capability is there?23:25
IrcsomeBot<Deer_1S> Forwarded from Deer_1S: I found that you can only be successful at some things if you don't give up too soon.  My first and second investments with two different account managers were unsuccessful, but my goal was to gain financial freedom and never give up, luckily i found option coin exchanges they have been honest with me in every aspect and advises should join and earn alot from this company you can sign up below and start earning today23:28

gorgeous_inkpenHello! Can anyone give me recommendations or advice regarding remote desktop with Kubuntu?23:29
gorgeous_inkpenI am running RealVNC and it is incredibly slow. My machine at home isn't plugged into a monitor at the moment and it seems to be causing the issue.23:30
