The debian-private mailing list leak, part 1. Volunteers have complained about Blackmail. Lynchings. Character assassination. Defamation. Cyberbullying. Volunteers who gave many years of their lives are picked out at random for cruel social experiments. The former DPL's girlfriend Molly de Blanc is given volunteers to experiment on for her crazy talks. These volunteers never consented to be used like lab rats. We don't either. debian-private can no longer be a safe space for the cabal. Let these monsters have nowhere to hide. Volunteers are not disposable. We stand with the victims.

Serious holes



I'm concerned about the age of our user-space network code (netstd).

I checked and we are vulnerable on the talkd and rlogin holes, and based
on the message below, we're probably also still vulnerable to the
telnetd hole.

The talkd and telnetd holes are remotely exploitable.  That's pretty
bad.

We really need to at least move to netkit 0.9 in unstable.
