The MATE Session Handler lacks elogind support to handle session options from MATE since it is adapted for systemd only. There is a patch of elogind support for gnome-session [0] that could be adapted to mate-session-manager.

gvfs uses some features from systemd-logind that can be provided by elogind. There is an implementation made from Gentoo [0] to add libelogind support.

icecast has a failure in hyperbola, every time you want to connect icecast you must launch this command: ‘icecast -b -c /etc/icecast.xml’, without that command icecast is not connected with the client.

This cause multiple errors at shutdown as well.

Hello,

Could it be possible to add this package :

octopi

https://www.parabola.nu/packages/pcr/x86_64/octopi/

License : GPL2

Thanks

Multiple vulnerabilities have been located in Irssi.

Access remote: yes

References links:

• https://irssi.org/security/irssi_sa_2018_02.txt

This morning while I was working on my X200, I noticed that my CPU was kept 100% busy for a long time by some process which was obvioulsy eating up the battery life. The culprit was pacman-key, triggered by logrotate.

To stop this, I did ‘chmod -x /etc/cron.daily/pacman-key’ and I rebooted.

Later on, it was impossible to install a new package as it was impossible to get over the step marked as “checking keys in keyring...”

So I tried to do again ‘pacman-key –refresh-keys’: the overall process took more than an hour—behind a fast and robust internet connection. I finally got three lines, saying that about 1,000 keys were updated but I never got the prompt back. So I hit Ctrl-C.

At the time of writing, I am still trying to refresh the keys—a quite desperate attempt, if I may say so.

Although I tagged this report as a “Feature request”, it is in my opinion of quite some importance. I understand very well the absolute necessity to always have the keys updated, but in this particular case, with so many keys and so frequent updates, I begin to wonder if losses are not beginning to prevail over benefits.

Unless I am doing something wrong or missing something I should do?

Any help would be strongly appreciated.

Robert

Python 2.7.14 is vulnerable to a Heap-Buffer-Overflow as well as a Heap-Use-After-Free. Python versions prior to 2.7.14 may also be vulnerable and it appears that Python 2.7.17 and prior may also be vulnerable however this has not been confirmed. The vulnerability lies when multiply threads are handling large amounts of data. In both cases there is essentially a race condition that occurs. For the Heap-Buffer-Overflow, Thread 2 is creating the size for a buffer, but Thread1 is already writing to the buffer without knowing how much to write. So when a large amount of data is being processed, it is very easy to cause memory corruption using a Heap-Buffer-Overflow. As for the Use-After-Free, Thread3→Malloc→Thread1→Free’s→Thread2-Re-uses-Free’d Memory. The PSRT has stated that this is not a security vulnerability due to the fact that the attacker must be able to run code, however in some situations, such as function as a service, this vulnerability can potentially be used by an attacker to violate a trust boundary, as such the DWF feels this issue deserves a CVE.

Since DNSCrypt-Proxy project has been abandoned [0] , DNSCrypt-Proxy 2 [1] should be used as its source replacement, however DNSCrypt-Proxy 2 contains support for unsafe and dangerous for privacy protocols such as Google. [2] [3] [4] Also, it contains Google recommendation and support through its parental control servers and public resolvers lists [5] [6]

Therefore DNSCrypt-Proxy 2 requires be re-forked by us first to follow our social contract.

Geth 1.6.x contains possible denial of service attacks “DoS Attack”, however it has been solved in 1.7.2 [0] instead. Since 1.6.x needs many modifications spread across multiple files of the code and it is inefficient to be backported, the newer version (eg. 1.7.x) could replace the current version package as exception, but repackaged with the appropriate suffix “-backports”.

instead of:

Since Linux 4.14, the in-tree kernel firmware was dropped[0][1], and Hyperbola uses linux-libre-lts-firmware from 4.9 which still supports that firmware.

However, I’d like to request upgrading to the new libre replacement of linux-firmware.git: linux-libre-firmware[2][3].

This version has no LTS releases (well, firmwares commonly don’t have LTS versions and the in-tree firmware was always the same in post-4.9 generations), but it has the same firmwares as Linux-libre-lts plus some others.

This is the list of firmware files in linux-libre-lts-firmware and its dependencies:

And here are the firmware files of the new linux-libre-firmware:

It has openfwwf and ath9k-htc-firmware included, plus some others. If actual versions of Hyperbola don’t get the update at least consider it for future releases. You can get the new PKGBUILD[4] and its new build dependencies at Parabola’s abslibre.git libre tree[5]

The new dependencies are:

• sh-elf-gcc (which depends on sh-elf-binutils)

• sh-elf-newlib

• arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc (which depends on arm-linux-gnueabi-binutils)

• xtensa-unknown-elf-gcc (already at Hyperbola)

Updated Note:

Since Linux-libre-firmware contains a lot of independent firmware, tools and assembly projects, it should be built from its official tarball separately and create a group called kernel-firmware to follow the our packaging guidelines. Tools and assembly projects shouldn’t be included in kernel-firmware since those ones are firmware dependencies.

We seem to have a very old version of xscreensaver... Could you possibly update it?

this may be a security issue/privacy issue.

Replace RC_SVCDIR to RC_LOGDIR, like:

src/librc/rc.h.in
-----
 #define RC_LIBEXECDIR    "LIBEXECDIR@"
+#define RC_LOGDIR        "/var/log"
_____
src/rc/rc-logger.c
-----
-#define TMPLOG RC_SVCDIR "rc.log"
+#define TMPLOG RC_LOGDIR "rc.log"

When dummy.ko (kernel module) is loaded, dummy0 interface is loaded as “numdummies=1”.
If any dummy interface is configured in netifrc config file, dummy module loads and adds undesirable “dummy0” interface
(eg. if “dummy0” interface is configured, it generates netifrc configuration conflicts).

Please add “/usr/lib/modprobe.d/dummy.conf” file configuration to disable numdummies option by default:

options dummy numdummies=0
