Continuation flood attack leading to issues on servers using HTTP/2.0

Posted on

Details have emerged about the 'Continuation flood' attack method, which affects various implementations of the HTTP/2 protocol, including Apache httpd, Apache Traffic Server, Node.js, oghttp, Go net/http2, Envoy, oghttp, and nghttp2. This vulnerability can be exploited to carry out attacks on servers supporting HTTP/2.0, leading to memory exhaustion (cessation of request processing or crash of processes) depending on the implementation or […]

Google has introduced the jpegli library for more efficient JPEG image compression

Posted on

Google has introduced a new open-source library called jpegli, which features an image encoder and decoder for the JPEG format. The library includes additional optimizations for improved encoding efficiency, allowing for a 35% increase in the compression of high-quality images compared to traditional JPEG codecs.

Attackers gained access to 174 accounts in the PyPI directory.

Posted on

Administrators of the Python Package Index (PyPI) repository have published information about the detection of unauthorized access to 174 user accounts. According to representatives of PyPI, the authentication details of the affected users were likely obtained from collections of previously compromised credentials created as a result of breaches or leaks from other services. Access to PyPI accounts was possible due to the use of […]

Initiative to reduce dependencies in libsystemd

Posted on

Developers of the system manager systemd are discussing the issue of reducing dependencies in the libsystemd library, which is linked not only with systemd components but also with many external applications. For example, in Fedora, over 150 packages use libsystemd as a dependency. The initiator of the discussion believes that including additional third-party libraries in libsystemd, which are not controlled by the systemd developers, significantly increases the attack surface […]

The Ussury project is developing a new standard C library

Posted on

The gradual adaptation of ONTL (Open NT Native Template Library) for the Linux operating system has begun (the ONTL project implements the standard C++11 library used for creating executable files for both the NativeAPI user space and the Windows OS kernel). The possibility of using C++ in the Linux kernel is fundamentally not considered, as it goes against established tradition. A small part of the C functions has been moved to a new […]
