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 developers of the Linux Mint distribution have released the first version of the libAdapta library, created as a fork of libAdwaita.

A vulnerability (CVE-2025-47934) has been discovered in the OpenPGP.js library, allowing an attacker to send a modified message, which will be perceived by the recipient as verified (the functions openpgp.verify and openpgp.decrypt will return a successful digital signature verification indication, despite the content being altered and different from the data for which the signature was made). The vulnerability has been addressed in OpenPGP.js releases 5.11.3 and 6.1.1. The issue only manifests in the branches of OpenPGP.js […]
