🚨 Upgrade or be hacked. 🚨
There is a "hacker" group (script kiddies) targeting Mastodon sites that are not yet running Mastodon 4.5.10.
Version 4.5.10 fixes several security vulnerabilities that are relatively easy to exploit and were discovered in earlier versions of Mastodon.
If you're not running 4.5.10 (or newer), you are at risk. ⚠️
If you're using a nightly build of Mastodon, make sure you're running one that was released after the release date of 4.5.10. And yes, I said release date, not version number — earlier 4.6 nightly builds do not include the security patch. ⚠️
If you're delaying the update because you're running a modified version of Mastodon, consider whether maintaining those modifications is worth the security risk. ⚠️

Most web browsing has been using post-quantum secure algorithms for years now.
Why? Browsers and large CDNs have pushed for post-quantum key agreement implementations, such as X25519MLKEM768.
This has been a great success: No one needed to change or configure anything, or even know about it. This is the best kind of security: unobtrusive and transparent, without requiring user involvement for deployment.

How does Fedora process patches for security vulnerabilities? The short answer is that we work to stay on top of the news to implement patches, working in the community and with Red Hat for updates.

Local file exposure #vulnerability in linux kernels (CVE-2026-46333):
github.com/0xdeadbeefnetwork/s…
Apparently this issue was already identified in 2020 but wasn't fixed back then.
Mitigation:
- runtime:
sudo sysctl -w kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=2
- To make the mitigation persistent:
echo "kernel.yama.ptrace_scope=2" | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/01-harden-ptrace.conf
WARNING: This mitigation may break existing functionality. Test before deploying.
WARNING 2: While this mitigation does block the currently existing PoC, it may not prevent other attack vectors exploiting this vulnerability.
