Any | Security Issue | Very Low | High | Iceweasel ESR request, | Closed | |
Task Description
from the, forums I have heard you plan to base your new iceweasel version from basilisk when firefox switches to web extensions completely. I am concerned about this because noscript and many other addons will no longer support legacy after this point...
I really think you are doing a disservice if you do this. I think we should personally fix the leaks that mozilla makes, the way trisquel 8 does it. I have heard they know how to fix those leaks. Or, another way forward would be to find a way that involves forking firefox esr 60 and correcting the bugs with the help of tcpdump.
Its madness to fork from basilisk because without noscript webextensions and other such addons, any benefits you get will be very small compared to what you have lost in the process.
I doubt you want to have two different versions of iceweasel esr, one that is with webext and one without. But please don’t try to use basilisk as the base for iceweasel.
I really think its a bad idea long term. Do I dislike mozilla’s new plan? Yes... of course. But do I think using basilisk will solve it? Not unless mozilla angers enough people to make their addons for basilisk instead... Which I really, really doubt very highly.
Please hear this request and don’t just close it. Rather, instead discuss it for a long time. Without noscript, firefox is immensely insecure. And Firefox’s legacy noscript version will die in the future. In the NEAR FUTURE I MIGHT ADD
Of course, there are other firefox addons I want that are webext. So yeah... Nano Adblocker, Privacy Settings, Privacy Possum/Privacy Badger, Viewtube, Decentraleyes to name a few.

Task Description
Description: https://blog.tox.chat/2018/10/memory-leak-bug-and-new-toxcore-release-fixing-it/
The bug is fixed in TokTok c-toxcore v0.2.8. The bug is also fixed in the master branch of irungentoo’s toxcore, in commit bf69b54f64003d160d759068f4816b2d9b2e1e21. As a general reminder, if you are still using irungentoo’s toxcore, we strongly encourage you to switch to using TokTok c-toxcore instead as it’s a lot more actively developed and maintained.

Task Description
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!

Any | Security Issue | Very Low | Critical | [opensmtpd] CVE-2020-8794 | Closed | |
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.”

Stable | Security Issue | Very Low | Medium | [git] Multiple CVEs | Closed | |
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():

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).

Task Description
This is same issue as on: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1151273
The paths changed and trying to mount davfs file system defined in /etc/fstab fails with error: unknown file system davfs
To remedy, I made symlink in /sbin to mount.davfs
The transition of paths had to take that in account as many mounted remote disks failed after upgrade.

Any | Update Request | Medium | High | Make Knock patch for Linux-libre 4.14 LTS | Closed | |
Task Description
The Knock patches for linux-libre maintained by you at https://git.hyperbola.info:50100/kernels/knock.git/ have support up to linux-libre 4.13 only (and I think it didn’t work for it when I tried it, compilation failed) but from all of those supported versions, the newest maintained generation by the upstream is 4.9.x
However, since newer kernel generations might require reprogramming the patch, I want to request it only for the latest LTS generation which is 4.14. As you know, LTS software are supported for a long time, so it’s worth to make it for linux-libre 4.14.x
This might not be really important for Hyperbola in the short term, but you are the maintainers of the TCP Stealth implementation for Linux-libre and I and maybe other people would like to use it in their projects for newer versions.
Plus, it would be great since while 4.9 kernels can use the GRSec+Knock combination like linux-libre-lts-unofficial-grsec-knock, with support for 4.14 anyone would be able to use a combination of newer patches such as Linux-hardened+Knock (Linux-hardened supports 4.14 and 4.15 as of now) which is what I’d like to do. https://github.com/copperhead/linux-hardened/releases

This package have valuable geodetic applications, and I intend to present Hyperbola GNU/Linux-libre soon in universities and schools in East Africa.
The coordinate system there is not WGS84 and this package only in new version is providing the conversion from East African geographic coordinates to WGS84, and will be very usable in many industrial and private applications.

Any | Update Request | Very Low | Medium | Update addon random agent spoofer | Closed | |
Task Description
The useragents in random agent spoofer are detected as old apart from, firefox 60 for win7 and win10.*
I recommend focusing on the ones most people still use of each os type and scrapping the rest.
aka, for each section, such as winbugs, mac, gnu/linux... unix, android, etc...
Keep the most used ones, and update them often.
I only suggest this, because it is less work for your team.
*Of all the firefox ones, those are the only ones that work...
