It happened already with minetest and again with prosody: When trying to build own packages with makepkg there are patches downloaded from the Debian-project. But the given HTTP(S)-sources are no longer available, concrete example within prosody to be found: https://deb.debian.org/debian/pool/main/p/prosody/prosody_0.10.2-1~bpo9+1.debian.tar.xz (not available)
Please don’t rely on those external sources when creating PKGBUILD-files or just give users the possibility for a secure and granted download. Therefore I cannot build prosody on my own now!

Task Description
Description: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2020/02/24/5 https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/new-critical-rce-bug-in-openbsd-smtp-server-threatens-linux-distros/
Qualys Security Advisory
LPE and RCE in OpenSMTPD’s default install (CVE-2020-8794)
Summary Analysis ... Acknowledgments
We discovered a vulnerability in OpenSMTPD, OpenBSD’s mail server. This vulnerability, an out-of-bounds read introduced in December 2015 (commit 80c6a60c, “when peer outputs a multi-line response ...”), is exploitable remotely and leads to the execution of arbitrary shell commands: either as root, after May 2018 (commit a8e22235, “switch smtpd to new grammar”); or as any non-root user, before May 2018.
Because this vulnerability resides in OpenSMTPD’s client-side code (which delivers mail to remote SMTP servers), we must consider two different scenarios:
- Client-side exploitation: This vulnerability is remotely exploitable
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.
- Server-side exploitation: First, the attacker must connect to the
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).
We developed a simple exploit for this vulnerability and successfully tested it against OpenBSD 6.6 (the current release), OpenBSD 5.9 (the first vulnerable release), Debian 10 (stable), Debian 11 (testing), and Fedora 31.
The fix is delivered in OpenSMTPD 6.6.4p1, available here, which the developer recommends installing “AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.”

Packages | Stable | Security Issue | Very Low | Medium | [git] Multiple CVEs | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
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():

Packages | Testing | Replace Request | Very Low | Medium | replace request: NetworkManager with wpa_cute | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
https://github.com/loh-tar/wpa-cute/releases
I know there are plans to remove NetworkManager. I wondered if we could replace it in 0.4 with Wpa_Cute. seen in the above link.
I haven’t been able to compile it, but it has been updated as recent as 2018 december (stable)
or 2019 january. :)
WPA_GUI doesn’t seem to work well for me, it runs into weird errors when I start it. Long story short, I run into this issue with wpa_supplicant when i do it manually:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wpa_supplicant:
Password-related problems
wpa_supplicant may not work properly if directly passed via stdin particularly long or complex passphrases which include special characters. This may lead to errors such as failed 4-way WPA handshake, PSK may be wrong when launching wpa_supplicant.
In order to solve this try using here strings wpa_passphrase <MYSSID> «< “<passphrase>” or passing a file to the -c flag instead:
# wpa_supplicant -i <interface> -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/example.conf
In some instances it was found that storing the passphrase cleartext in the psk key of the wpa_supplicant.conf network block gave positive results (see [2]). However, this approach is rather insecure. Using wpa_cli to create this file instead of manually writing it gives the best results most of the time and therefore is the recommended way to proceed. Problems with eduroam and other MSCHAPv2 connections
This is my issue with wpa_supplicant sadly... and I do not know how to workaround that without a GUI.
but Wpa_Supplicant_gui does not fix it either, it doesn’t even load properly on my other laptop.
It says it cannot get the status of wpa_supplicant when I load it.
This could be an issue if you get rid of NetworkManager for some users.
So yeah, please take a look at my request okay? Wait for 0.3 to be released to add this if possible. I know you guys are overworked, etc... and it doesn’t need to be done now anyhow. ;)

Task Description
By default, the ‘disable-publishing’ parameter in the [publish] section of avahi-daemon.conf is set to ‘no’, which can be seen in my opinion as a privacy issue as avahi broadcasts the hostname without the user’s consent even though this has been explicitly disabled in the settings of networkmanager.

Installation | General | Implementation Request | Very Low | Low | To make installation instructions and get use of live I... | Unconfirmed | |
Task Description
I have installed multiple times Hyperbola, 4 times on 4 different notebooks.
What I have noticed is that the live ISO is quite huge in relation to the task that should be done. Namely. the live ISO shall at least contain some first packages, so that they do not need to be downloaded online.
Best would be if the live ISO can be copied straight and that system can run from ISO/DVD without having Internet. At least one simple graphical environment shall be included.
Further, I have noticed that there is only network instructions as HTML file.
I would rather call it installation-instructions.html to make it clear for people what it is. Or simply: INSTALL.html so that people understand what it is.
It says just network.html if I remember well.
Then there is absolutely no point or link or reference to the installation instructions.
Each time I got a network I had to go to either duckduckgo search engine or to hyperbola.info website and then I tried with lynx to find installation instructions.
It is not straight, not quite clearly in open, it is in Wiki, but that is quite hard to find.
We have to put ourselves in the shoes of those in need of free software. Millions of people need free software.
Many of us live in a developed western countries.
Yet millions of people in need of this software live in South America, Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe.
There are millions of students that could advance their study, and that could progress faster with free software.
In those countries Internet is often non-existent, universities may be located in poor network areas, Internet is being fetched by using mobile phones.
So if there is a live distribution, such shall at least contain basic software, which really can fit onto any DVD, and that as such can be copied on the computer without using Internet. Upgrades could be fetched by using Internet.
And there shall be clear reference, link or file about installation. There shall be no need to go to Internet to install the software.
