Re: [nlug] linux exploit

Thank you, Tilghman. I did not read the source documents due to lack of detail knowledge. We cannot be too careful but I often wonder about sensationalism. Howard On 5/13/19 8:33 PM, Tilghman Lesher wrote: Reading on this a little bit more, it looks like this bug would be extremely difficul

Re: [nlug] linux exploit

Reading on this a little bit more, it looks like this bug would be extremely difficult to exploit. Basically, it only occurs when you allocate a socket, attempt to connect to a remote machine, and the attempted connection fails. If that happens, you get a use-after-free condition. Given how freq

Re: [nlug] linux exploit

It is, indeed, bleeding edge, but the SecurityFocus article makes clear that this is a bug that goes back to even Linux 2.0 kernels. So you're vulnerable, period, at least until your upstream vendor publishes an updated kernel that corrects this race condition. On Mon, May 13, 2019 at 8:33 AM How

Welcome Patrick, Here's an invite link to our Slack channel. We are still working on getting members to use it. This mailing list has years of traction with our community. https://join.slack.com/t/nlug/shared_invite/enQtNDc5MDE4Mzk1NjM0LTQzMTYxYWUzMjBlYTExNWQyZThiYmNiMWZhMjQ1M2MyODU3MDM1NjJlNmQ4M

Hey guys, New guy here. Maybe instead of using Google Groups perhaps we should use Telegram, Slack, or Matrix or one of those communication mediums. The backing and forthing over email seems a bit cumbersome. -- Patrick On Mon, May 13, 2019, 1:34 PM Vincent Brown wrote: > A meet and eat may

A meet and eat may make more sense than anything else. Its not really a place for setting up projectors and making presentations. Not that we still couldn't bring laptops and work on projects in huddles. On Sunday, May 5, 2019 at 10:02:29 PM UTC-5, Jackie Moore wrote: > > We will be meeting at E

Re: [nlug] Re: May 14th Meeting

I can't be there, but if no one makes a presentation... try a 'go around the table' and get a list of projects folks have. Work or personal. Almost everyone has one or two pet projects cooking at one stage or another. They can be simple, like configuring log scanners, or setting up small notifica

I don’t. Just a meet and eat if nobody else steps up. Jackie Jackie Moore > On May 13, 2019, at 10:22 AM, Vincent Brown > wrote: > > Do we have a topic (or topic suggestion) for this meeting yet. This backup > location came up after I had cancelled the Meetup event. It's a little > last-min

[nlug] Re: May 14th Meeting

Do we have a topic (or topic suggestion) for this meeting yet. This backup location came up after I had cancelled the Meetup event. It's a little last-minute but we could create a new event on Meetup for East Nashville Beerworks. On Sunday, May 5, 2019 at 10:02:29 PM UTC-5, Jackie Moore wrote:
