AI coding assistants have become a staple in many Linux developers' daily workflows. Whether you're generating boilerplate, refactoring code, or updating configuration files, it's easy to assume these tools stay safely inside your project directory. . Researchers recently pulled the curtain back on a threat they’ve dubbed " GhostApproval ." It’s a direct hit to the way we use tools like Cursor, Amazon Q, and Claude Code. They found these assistants have a dangerous blind spot: they can be...

Linux runs a huge portion of today's infrastructure because it gives administrators an unusual amount of control over the system. That control extends to networking, where almost every aspect of packet flow, routing, filtering, and interface behavior can be customized. The trade-off is that very little of that hardening happens automatically. A fresh installation is usually built to communicate, not to isolate. . As environments grow, servers start exchanging data with monitoring platforms,...

We often view OpenSSH security updates through the lens of standard patch management. When a new CVE hits, we scramble to update, check our versions, and return to business as usual. But recent vulnerabilities tied to distribution-added OpenSSH GSSAPI patches are a reminder that the danger doesn't always lie in the core code; it often resides in the "convenience" features we layer on top. . These recent issues shouldn't just trigger an apt upgrade or dnf update; they should trigger a...

Linux security teams are drowning. Patches, kernel updates, new CVEs every week. SSH exposed here, an old web service there, and a forgotten cron job running as root. On top of that, SIEM dashboards blink all day with alerts that all claim to be “high priority.” . It’s no surprise that people stop paying attention. The real problem isn’t a lack of data. It’s the opposite. Too much noise, not enough signal. Security teams see huge lists of vulnerabilities and thousands of alerts, but very...

Before you close out the week, check what still needs to be patched. . The list is not small. Ubuntu and Red Hat pushed kernel updates. OpenVPN and OpenShift both received security fixes. Several everyday Linux components were patched too, including Vim, nginx, cifs-utils, LibVNCServer, nghttp2, and Perl. That is the kind of week administrators can easily write off as routine. It should not be. These are the updates that keep small openings from turning into real access. Why This Week Looks...

Alan Solomon Discusses Linux Use To Reduce Malware Risks

Alan Solomon, creator of Dr Soloman's Antivirus, has admitted to using Linux to avoid viruses rather than try to combat them on Windows. His comments come after Symantec's Brian Dye estimated that antivirus systems do not even catch half of cyber attacks. . Writing of his decision on his blog, Solomon said: "There doesn't seem to be much malware for Linux. I don't know why. Some say it's because Linux's security is better, some say it's because fewer people use it. I'm not really bothered." The link for this article located at Computer Business Review is no longer available. . Writing of his decision on his blog, Solomon said: 'There doesn't seem to be much malware for Linux.. solomon, creator, soloman's, antivirus, admitted, using, linux, avoid, viruses, rather. .
