[golinux]

Another systemd oopsie that recommends upgrading your systemd packages. How many has that been this year?

...How many has that been this year?...

I lost count, the best I recall, it's one?

p.s. My nephew called me on my birthday with a riddle. He asked me,
"What do you call an elephant that isn't popular?"
"Irrelephant."

How many has that been this year?

If the OP had read anything in the link they posted they would have seen this:

from: https://www.debian.org/security/2019/dsa-4393(same link)
---snip--- : For the detailed security status of systemd please refer to its security tracker page at: https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/systemd

They could have just "clicked" the link, and seen the answer to the question.

And , yes you are right, it is the only one, so far this year, and for the current stable Debian, (stretch)has been fixed...for Debian Jessie, it has not.

from https://security-tracker.debian.org/tra ... ge/systemd
===========Bug jessie stretch buster = sid Description
CVE-2019-6454 vulnerable fixed vulnerable fixed systemd (PID1) crash with specially crafted D-Bus message

But any way , thanks for letting everyone know, so that they know to do a upgrade

Debian Security Advisory: We recommend that you upgrade your systemd packages.

My sarcastic question was rhetorical.

Aaaand the thread at /r/Linux is a dumpster fire again.

I have no idea what you are talking about, but please, don't try to explain,..
Maybe, a mod can get the fire extinguisher, looks like the trolls are getting ready to have a barbecue, or something.

Oh, and Unix, Linux, and even Debian are all very user friendly, if and when the system admin decides to set up a user friendly system, Windows users don't find Unix like systems very friendly, and generally do not know how to administer any kind of system.

Don't use Reddit, the Chinese government have pwned it

@OP: thanks for the heads-up.

I trust China more than USA, though.
And I frequent safe subreddits

Isn't that like preferring gonorrhea over syphilis?
