We saw some supply-chain attacks on Linux distrubtions during #insomnihack. There an attacker would've been able to insert random code into packages. Now it seems to be the same for Fedora:

Which makes me wonder why they went through all that trouble with the XZ Utils backdoor (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XZ_Utils)? The frontdoor seems to be wide open!

#insomnihack 2025 - keynote from Mathias Payer. I always like if a researcher presents a slide like this in 30 seconds by going over it "something, something, something" :)

But as always very interesting and eye-opening what kind of (non-)security we're relying on daily.

A slide with several complicated fuzzing boxes on how to attack Android devices.
