    Immediately noticed even though the packages have been out for over a month?

    Easily could have stolen a ton of information in that month.

      Yeah but tbf it was deployed on mostly rolling release and beta releases.

      No enterprise on prod is worried because they’re still on RHEL 6 /s

          we’ve skipped 7 and are jumping straight to 8. The process has been going on for two years now. 9 was released 2 years ago

        Yeah they got lucky. But shows how susceptible systems are. Really makes you wonder how many systems are infected with similar - this wouldn’t be the first back door that’s live in Linux systems.

        Phew, thankfully everyone follows appropriate procedures and doesn’t just roll out beta updates to production in their systems.

        Right?
