A security issue in Omarchy’s default Docker configuration meant that
essentially every program running in the user’s desktop session could escalate
to root without a password, sudo, or a privilege prompt.
If you use Omarchy, the most important takeaway is
simple: update to 4.0.1.
I reported this issue privately through the project’s responsible-disclosure
process. The underlying configuration has since been patched, so I’m publishing
the details now to explain what the issue is and let users know to update their
systems.
Explain the likes of Curtis Yarvin then. There’s definitely some techno fascists that go back further than dot-com
Not Yarvin though, he’s too young for that. He is exactly a product of (what came after) the dot-com era. That’s when people’s brains started to melt.
You’re entirely right. For some reason I thought he’d been around a lot longer
He said “a lot”, he didn’t say “all”
I explained myself badly and I think that comment reads as more argumentative than I intended.
I meant to say that the countercultural world of the early internet created a lot of the deeply problematic culture of the current moment as well as having a bunch of right-on goodness. The seeds of the bad shit were also there in amongst everything that was good.
Can’t argue with that
