📰 Downloaded Cemu for Linux recently? You may have malware If you recently downloaded the Cemu emulator for Linux from the project’s GitHub, be aware: it may have added malware to your system. The team behind the Wii U emulator discovered that both the official AppImage and its Ubuntu ZIP assets for the Cemu 2.6 release available to download from GitHub were “compromised”. Cemu’s Flatpak was not affected, nor were the GitHub installers for Windows and macOS.

What is Microsoft Discovery? Microsoft Discovery is a cloud-based enterprise platform that uses agentic AI — software that can plan and independently execute multi-step research tasks without constant human input — to accelerate research and development (R&D). Announced at Microsoft Build 2025 and now in expanded preview as of April 2026, it combines specialized AI agents, a graph-based knowledge engine, and high-performance computing (HPC — large-scale cloud server clusters for compute-intensive simulations) on Azure. The platform targets organizations in chemistry, pharmaceuticals, materials science, semiconductor design, and general engineering. You interact with it through a conversational interface orchestrated by Microsoft Copilot. General availability has not been announced.

Test Days для Podman 6.0 Проект Fedora объявил о проведении серии Test Days для Podman 6.0 — следующего крупного релиза контейнерного движка, развиваемого как альтернатива Docker без центрального демона. Тестирование новой ветки проходит с 11 по 15 мая и ориентировано как на разработчиков, так и на обычных пользователей Fedora. Podman 6.0 станет одним из крупнейших обновлений проекта за последнее время. Разработчики готовят заметную переработку сетевой подсистемы, обновления механизмов взаимодействия контейнеров и внутренние изменения в архитектуре runtime-компонентов. Часть нововведений направлена на улучшение совместимости с Kubernetes и OCI-инструментами. В Fedora отмечают, что основной задачей Test Days является проверка обратной совместимости и выявление проблем в реальных сценариях эксплуатации. Пользователям предлагается протестировать: запуск rootless-контейнеров; работу compose-совместимых конфигураций; сетевые режимы; взаимодействие с systemd; миграцию существующих окружений с Podman 5.x. Особое внимание уделяется изменениям в контейнерных сетях. Разработчики продолжают постепенную модернизацию сетевого стека, включая улучшения интеграции с Netavark и Aardvark DNS — компонентами, пришедшими на смену старым CNI-механизмам. Podman давно стал одним из ключевых компонентов экосистемы Fedora и Red Hat. Проект активно используется в серверных Linux-дистрибутивах, CI/CD-инфраструктуре и средах разработки благодаря поддержке rootless-режима и совместимости с OCI-контейнерами без необходимости постоянно работающего daemon-процесса. Релиз Podman 6.0 ожидается после завершения тестирования и исправления найденных ошибок. Разработчики Fedora подчёркивают, что участие сообщества в Test Days напрямую влияет на стабильность будущего выпуска.  fedora, podman, тестирование 👉@sysadminoff https://www.linux.org.ru/news/opensource/18290479

Уязвимости в dnsmasq, допускающие отравление DNS-кэша и выполнение кода с правами root В пакете Dnsmasq, объединяющем кэширующий DNS-резолвер, сервер DHCP, сервис для анонсов маршрутов IPv6 и систему загрузки по сети, выявлено 6 уязвимостей, позволяющих выполнить код с правами root, перенаправить домен на другой IP, определить содержимое памяти процесса и вызвать аварийное завершение сервиса. Проблемы устранены в выпуске dnsmasq 2.92rel2. Исправления также доступны в форме патчей. Статус устранения уязвимостей в дистрибутивах можно оценить на данных страницах (если страница недоступна, значит разработчики дистрибутива ещё не приступили к рассмотрению проблемы): Debian, Ubuntu, SUSE, RHEL, Gentoo, Arch. 👉@sysadminoff https://www.opennet.ru/opennews/art.shtml?num=65431
