“This is a security release to fix a number of issues that were found by Kaspersky Lab. These issues affect both the client and server and could theoretically allow an malicious peer to take control over the software on the other side.”

Qualys Security Advisory

LPE and RCE in OpenSMTPD’s default install (CVE-2020-8794)

in OpenSMTPD's (and hence OpenBSD's) default configuration. Although
OpenSMTPD listens on localhost only, by default, it does accept mail
from local users and delivers it to remote servers. If such a remote
server is controlled by an attacker (either because it is malicious or
compromised, or because of a man-in-the-middle, DNS, or BGP attack --
SMTP is not TLS-encrypted by default), then the attacker can execute
arbitrary shell commands on the vulnerable OpenSMTPD installation.

OpenSMTPD server (which accepts external mail) and send a mail that
creates a bounce. Next, when OpenSMTPD connects back to their mail
server to deliver this bounce, the attacker can exploit OpenSMTPD's
client-side vulnerability. Last, for their shell commands to be
executed, the attacker must (to the best of our knowledge) crash
OpenSMTPD and wait until it is restarted (either manually by an
administrator, or automatically by a system update or reboot).

CHDKPTP is part of CHDK project - a free software firmware add-on for Canon cameras. It enables controlling Canon cameras via the computer.

Attached is a modified iup PKGBUILD (Lua 5.3 build was removed as it failed to compile) and configuration files for chdkptp.

Code is available via svn:

$ svn co http://subversion.assembla.com/svn/chdkptp/trunk chdkptp

Copy chdkptp.sh and config.mk files to source tree then compile via make. chdkptp requires root privileges to connect to a camera.

Steps to reproduce:

- Install package

CVE-2020-5260 has been fixed very recently in Debian, so I thought I would apply this patch. However, I found out that security patches have not been applied for quite a while (I could account for at least 6 CVEs).

Considering that the version in Debian stretch (2.11.0) is the nearest version with security patches released by Debian and that git project oldest supported version is 2.17, I have used patches from Debian stretch to apply on 2.12.2 currently in Milky Way.

But I have the following error on check():

This does not seem to be related to my change as the current version in Milky Way produces the same error (IOW the package currently in Milky Way is not rebuidable).

Description: Since the migration to xenocara there seems to be a bug with applications using GTK-2. From time to time there are crashes with assertion `!xcb_xlib_threads_sequence_lost’.

Looking into this a little bit more deep there are also other distributions affected and this is an upstream-bug. But the concrete situation is not that easy, while it could be also part of the library libX11 itself. Looking therefore here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcmanfm/+bug/1782984

Affected are for example LXDE in general, icedove, iceweasel and many more!

There is only the source code of the client available and since years nothing more happened. With keybase joining “Zoom” nothing more seems to happen. Look also here in the forum: https://forums.hyperbola.info/viewtopic.php?id=368

I was using GNU Emacs, and tried to export LaTeX file or make a PDF. It seems that texlive package is broken, some fonts are missing.

The group named texlive-most cannot be properly installed.

Description:

• replace deprecated GNU Bazaar to Brezy for Canis Major

Additional info:

• bzr 2.7.0-2
• GNU Bazaar will be unmaintained (for now, there are only bug fixes)
• GNU Bazaar only supports Python 2.
• Python 2.7 is the end of the Python 2 line of development. [0]
• There never will be an official Python 2.8 release.
• Or use Tauthon (fork of Python 2.7) as dependency.

Note: It needs a provide: bazaar and brezy

Steps to reproduce:

• broken package

Steps to reproduce:

• Broken python2 packages.

aqemu only lists GNU/Linux and GNU/Hurd. Since LibertyBSD is also free it should also be added.

php-imagick is an optdepends for many PHP webapps like Nextcloud and Wordpress, would be good to have itin Hyperbola, Arch added it last year

Some forum display errors:

1. preview button with the orange border.

1. Error message when logging in gray color making it difficult to read

Add Hyperbola branding to HyperTask such as HyperWiki and HyperForum for prolixity reasons.

I don’t know if this is the best place for this, but I get stuck on the hardening the grub guide from libreboot,

https://libreboot.org/docs/gnulinux/grub_hardening.html

I wondered if there is anything different that needs to be done to get this part done:

gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign my.initramfs
gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign my.kernel
gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign libreboot_grub.cfg
gpg –homedir keys –detach-sign my.grubtest.cfg

it gives me a bunch of weird errors

Seems deleted items reappearing in the Hyperbola feeds since it gives its feed items empty ID string.

After talking to Emulatorman, we think this would be a nice feature to add to our Hyperwiki to be able to subscribe to the original page in English to help tracking changing to the translated pages.
This implies to add the email notifications to the dokuwiki system

So avatar uploading is not working well, and picture is getting minimized to nothing.

The wiki pages look really too narrow and not readable on even half a screen of the laptop.

I could not find any regarding using arch or other branded themes. Parabola apparently rebrands some stuff in their libre repository, eg. they have their own parabola-themes-slim package for slim based themes.

https://issues.hyperbola.info/index.php?do=details&task_id=1213&opened=24&status[0]=

This would ease their usage on other distros.

When I was adding this task, I put some long tags on it (html form allowed that) and got an error concerning too long tags field to fit in an sql datatype (max is 40 chars). Task got added anyway (just without tags). I didn’t know that and created it again.

Hi,

My email server (riseup.net) fails to deliver emails to hyperbola.info. Here’s the error message coming in the returned email:

Reporting-MTA: dns; mx1.riseup.net
X-Postfix-Queue-ID: 49vvwD4xQnzFf2F
X-Postfix-Sender: rfc822; xxxxx@riseup.net
Arrival-Date: Sun, 28 Jun 2020 08:40:44 -0700 (PDT)

Final-Recipient: rfc822; xxxxx@hyperbola.info
Original-Recipient: rfc822;xxxxx@hyperbola.info
Action: failed
Status: 4.7.5
Diagnostic-Code: X-Postfix; Server certificate not verified

This problem did not occur last time I sent emails to a hyperbola.info account (December 2019).
It does not happen with any other destination email server. My guess is that something isn’t properly configured in your server.
If you conclude that this is a riseup.net problem, let me know and I’ll open a bug report with them.

The requirement for TLS 1.2 in email effectively isolated us from internet, and yelling for change isn’t working even in communications with other free/libre system distributions and mailing lists related to free/libre software (both for software and for discussions related to the movement itself). :)

Many mailing lists at gnu.org, fsf.org, fsfla.org, libreplanet.org, and also in other free/libre system distributions aren’t accessible (e.g.: Trisquel).

After confirming the newly created account (typing the confirmation code, the passwoard and its confirmation, and clicking the button to continue), the following error appears:

  Notice: crypt(): No salt parameter was specified. You must use a randomly generated salt and a strong hash function to produce a secure hash. in /srv/http/flyspray/includes/class.flyspray.php on line 656 

The account login seems to work normaly.

Develop HyperBK (Hyper Berkeley Kernel), a BSD descendant kernel with GPL-compatible licenses preserved, non-compatible ones removed, and new code written under GPL-3 for HyperbolaBSD.

TODO:

• Download OpenBSD kernel source code from OpenBSD site → DONE

• Download LibertyBSD scripts to deblob and rebrand kernel from their scripts. → DONE

• Create a new project in Hyperbola Git called hyperbk. → DONE

• Push source to HyperBK’s project. → DONE

• Rebrand OpenBSD kernel to HyperbolaBSD with LibertyBSD scripts. → DONE

• Rebrand entire code (functions, variable, pointers, etc) under HyperbolaBSD → DONE

• Remove files under non GPL-compatible licenses → DONE

• Import code from another BSD systems under GPL-compatible licenses → IN PROGRESS

• Remove remaining nonfree files don't found from LibertyBSD scripts → IN PROGRESS

• Write new code under GPL-3 → IN PROGRESS

• Package HyperBK for HyperbolaBSD.

PATCHING NOTE

When the check concerns kernel, we obviously want to match with HyperbolaBSD.

Example of triplet check:	hyperbolabsd)
Example of uname -s check:	HyperbolaBSD)
Example of uname -r check:	0.1)
Example of C macro check:	defined(__HyperbolaBSD__)

The unfortunate reality is that x86 computers come encumbered with built-in low-level backdoors like the Intel Management Engine , as well as nonfree boot firmware. This means that users can’t gain full control over their computers, even if they install a free operating system such as Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre .

Hyperbola is working hard to fix these issues and getting closer every day, but for the time being, this is why many current Respects Your Freedom (RYF) offerings are refurbished older devices.

For the future of free computing, we need support architectures that do not come with such malware pre-installed, and the Power9-based Talos II promises to be a great architecture example for workstations and servers environments where Hyperbola is focused since is a fully free long-term support distribution.

Devices like this are the future of computing that Respects Your Freedom and for that reason it’s a high priority for Hyperbola port all packages for the POWER architecture (power64le).

NOTE: POWER porting is focused only for Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre .

Create hypertools to replace libretools package for HyperbolaBSD and GNU/Linux

It’s long period to develop this package.
For now, a systemd-nspawn wrapper is being developed for “libretools”[0]

Description:
Historically, Swiftweasel was a Firefox-based application built on XUL platform around 2007 and abandoned in 2010. It was optimized for several architectures using the following methods such as the Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO) and binary code optimization for computers with limited resources.

Since there are users encouraging us develop a Palemoon-based application , and Swiftweasel contains non-trademarked graphics and logos, we could port Swiftweasel to UXP platform as theme for Iceweasel-UXP.

Historically, Swiftdove was a Thunderbird-based application built on XUL platform around 2007 and abandoned in 2010. It was optimized for several architectures using the following methods such as the Profile-Guided Optimization (PGO) and binary code optimization for computers with limited resources.

Since FossaMail may potentially be revived on UXP in the future [0] and Swiftdove contains non-trademarked graphics and logos, we could port Swiftdove to UXP platform as theme for Icedove-UXP.

For the future of free computing, we need support architectures that do not come with such malware pre-installed, and RISC-V promises to be a great architecture example for low-power computers, laptops and embedded systems, also as ARM architecture replacement.

Devices like this are the future of computing that Respects Your Freedom and for that reason it’s a high priority for Hyperbola port all packages for the RISC-V architecture (riscv64) with multilib support.

NOTE: RISC-V porting is focused only for Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre .
