A corrective release of libinput 1.31.3 has been published — a library for processing input devices used by modern Linux desktops in conjunction with Wayland compositors and X.Org. libinput is responsible for device detection, event processing, and input abstraction: from mice and touchpads to graphic tablets. The project is distributed under the MIT license. The main change in this release is the fix of a vulnerability in the libinput-device-group udev helper program. The problem was related to […]
Information has been revealed about the 'HTTP/2 Bomb' vulnerability, affecting various implementations of the HTTP/2 protocol and allowing denial of service through exhaustion of all available process memory. The issue has been confirmed in HTTP servers nginx, Apache httpd (CVE-2026-49975), Microsoft IIS, Envoy (CVE-2026-47774), and Cloudflare Pingora in default configuration. The vulnerability exploits a method akin to a zip bomb applied to the header compression functionality in HTTP/2. […]
A vulnerability (CVE not assigned) has been found in the libinput library, which provides a unified input stack for Wayland and X.Org Server. This vulnerability allows local users to execute code with root privileges by connecting a virtual input device, emulated in user space via uinput or uhid. The issue has been resolved in releases 1.31.3 and 1.30.4. The vulnerability exists in the udev handler of libinput-device-group and is caused by a lack of proper […]

Following the release of the rsync file synchronization utility 3.4.3 with fixes for 6 vulnerabilities, regressions affecting previously working configurations have been noted. Additionally, misunderstanding and dissatisfaction were caused by the addition of about 50 changes to the rsync repositories over the past two weeks, prepared using the AI model Claude. Some users linked the onset of regressions to the generation of low-quality vulnerability fixes using […]
