Remote vulnerability in the ksmbd module of the Linux kernel identified using AI

Posted on

A vulnerability (CVE-2025-37899) has been discovered in the ksmbd module, which offers a built-in Linux kernel implementation of a file server based on the SMB protocol, potentially allowing for code execution at the kernel level through the sending of specially crafted packets. Notably, the issue was identified during code analysis by the OpenAI o3 AI model. Since the full code of the ksmbd module exceeds the allowable size for the model […]

Ubuntu 25.10 defaults to Chrony instead of systemd-timesyncd.

Posted on

The Ubuntu Linux developers have outlined the transition to using the Chrony project by default for precise time synchronization in all Ubuntu 25.10 builds. Previously, Ubuntu used the systemd-timesyncd service, which has been decided to be replaced due to the desire to implement the NTS (Network Time Security) protocol for cryptographic protection of time synchronization. The Chrony project provides an independent implementation of the NTP client and server, already utilized for synchronization […]

The Linux Mint project has created libAdapta, a fork of the libAdwaita library.
