The 5 Best Tools to Create a Bootable USB From an ISO in Linux

Creating a bootable USB drive is a cornerstone skill for anyone interested in exploring different operating systems or working in system administration. A bootable USB drive allows a user to boot into a different operating system, independent of the primary OS installed on the machine. This is particularly useful for system recovery, testing new OS builds, or installing a new system altogether.

Multiple Exim security vulnerabilities disclosed

The “Zero Day Initiative” site has posted a number of advisories (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6)
describing a number of flaws in the Exim mail server, some of which are
exploitable remotely. These problems, allegedly, were first reported to
the project in June 2022, well over one year ago. There is some
disagreement over the timing of events, with Exim developer Heiko
Schlittermann claiming
that no actual information was received until last May, and an anonymous
ZDI representative disputing
that story.

Either way, the vulnerabilities are now disclosed, but patches are not yet
on offer; Schlittermann said that “Fixes are available in a protected
repository and are ready to be applied by the distribution
maintainers
“, so hopefully that situation will change soon.

Community is the Lifeblood of Freedom in the GNU/Linux World

THE GNU/Linux operating system was created in the 1980s by communities, for communities (even literal basement dwellers). The operating system became so robust and attractive that a trade group of corporate actors (mostly proprietary) formed malevolent fronts through which to promote toxic waste like Hyper-V and exFAT.
