Touchscreens on laptops for general use were a terrible idea when Windows 8 came out (remember how well that was received?) and they are still a terrible idea today

We need FreeBSD guy vs. Mac dude ads. FreeBSD guy asks "What's a GUI and why is so slow? Oh it animates? Shit just moves around for no reason? Wait...it looks like glass and you can't read anything? And search doesn't work?"

emudhra is actively blocking certain versions of curl from fetching their certificate revocation lists. this is with the usual combination of incompetence (only blocking specific curl versions) and malice (deliberately disrupting global security response) bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bu…

Sounds like you thought $900 a year made you some sort of elitist lol. Sorry to hear about the reality check.

Someone bought a really badass domain name and made a sweet landing page for a vibevuln in your product. No one actually knows if the bug is exploitable or impactful yet but it has gone viral anyways, enjoy your weekend

STOP THE PRESSES Setting the environment variable TS_SERVE_ALLOW_ALL_INTERFACES will let Tailscale Serve bind to all interfaces CVSS 10.0 SHUT IT DOWN

I reported a decent kernel vuln on Thursday - nobody told me I was supposed to register a domain name about it :(

the tailscale vulnerabilities read like slop to me. nothing in there seems critical or reason to panic. also: no repsonsible disclosure, nor any code or proof. feels like a scam.

Back in my day, we’d make artisanal hand-crafted shitposts to drop vulns on the Full-Disclosure listserv. Kids today only know eat hot chip and AI

Pretty sure that the reason that the Tailscale “Tailworm” vulnerabilities weren’t responsibly disclosed with the vendor is that they were hallucinated AI slop and there wasn’t anything to be responsibly disclosed with the vendor

There may be some legit findings here but they’re buried in sensationalism and nonsense and don’t seem like anything that would merit coordinated disclosure to begin with

that tailworm site reads like gigaslop, i call bullshit on the framing. the ssh bug is basically: authorized nonroot access can become root via unix socket forwarding. serious, but propagation follows ssh policy. this concerns tailscale’s opt-in ssh server, not ordinary openssh. the path also requires the attacker (yourself) to be added to your tailnet, enabled tailscale ssh (not enabled by default), configured forwarding (not default).

Did you see the finding about the TAILSCALE SERVE INTERFACE environment variable? LMAO

“bypasses network policy”: Reaching cross-namespace services is default pod behavior in Kubernetes. Their "fix" is to “add a default-deny egress NetworkPolicy.” If adding one fixes it, the finding is just “their test environment had no NetworkPolicy”?
