Bibliography LIVE about the xz/lzma backdoor compromised to sshd through systemd

Posted on by

Bibliography of this mini-tragedy for systemd and the “provocative” vindication of zstd (which usually is compiled using lib-lzma).

Here is some reading material to print and keep on your bedside:

The list will be enhanced as good material and analysis is found, and please make suggestions for more through comments

Even if I personally disagree or dislike something, like the booehs.org article, I will include it as long as it is related and not redundant, reproducing same information on a another site.

    • If you can ellaborate a little on the issue it would be nice.
      If you mean it is trying to become self-contained and not depend on other sw. that may be good news, for us not using it.
      In general it is trying to become THE system with linux as an accessory to it.

      Eventually these systems will become as heavy or heavier than win11
