A total of 130 tests were carried out, with the Ubuntu 20.04 environment in Windows 11 WSL2 achieving 94% of the performance of Ubuntu 20.04 running directly on bare metal in the same configuration.
A critical vulnerability CVE-2021-21703 has been identified in PHP-FPM, the FastCGI process manager included with the main PHP distribution since version 5.3. This vulnerability allows an unprivileged hosting user to execute code with root privileges. The issue manifests on servers using PHP-FPM for running PHP scripts, typically paired with Nginx. Researchers who discovered the issue were able to prepare a working exploit prototype.
Today we'll continue our introduction to the new version of the Ansible automation platform and discuss the newly introduced Automation Controller 4.0.

Engineers at Intel proposed a new protocol called HTTPA (HTTPS Attestable), which enhances HTTPS with additional security guarantees for the computations made. HTTPA ensures the integrity of the user's request processing on the server and verifies that the web service is trustworthy and that the code running in a TEE (Trusted Execution Environment) on the server has not been altered due to hacking or administrator intervention. HTTPS protects […]
