oh it’s the same guy who makes OpenSnitch and such? Unfortunately in that case it’s most likely legit

Tweet not found, not even when I change the URL to go directly to Twitter. Was it deleted?
Copying my reply from another thread:
This link should be working.
Quoting from the OP tweet:
* Unauthenticated RCE vs all GNU/Linux systems (plus others) disclosed 3 weeks ago.
* Full disclosure happening in less than 2 weeks (as agreed with devs).
* Still no CVE assigned (there should be at least 3, possibly 4, ideally 6).
* Still no working fix.
* Canonical, RedHat and others have confirmed the severity, a 9.9, check screenshot.
* Devs are still arguing about whether or not some of the issues have a security impact.I’ve spent the last 3 weeks of my sabbatical working full time on this research, reporting, coordination and so on with the sole purpose of helping and pretty much only got patronized because the devs just can’t accept that their code is crap - responsible disclosure: no more.

The Twitter account has been privated and there are no news stories about it. Other communities where this has been shared are reasonably suspicious.

I found this talking about the tweet. Nothing more.

While a CVSS score of 9.9 indicates critical severity, it’s important to approach the situation with a balanced perspective.
The whole article sounds like somebody asked chatGPT to explain the tweet in more detail.

Yes, it is indeed derived from the tweet either made by an LLM or by some low effort human. But still a good “mirror” of the deleted tweet.

Nice! That second one is just a repost of your first.
I wonder where the sources for this are? The hidden Margaritelli Twitter post?
Canonical and Red Hat have not only confirmed the vulnerability’s high severity but are also actively working on assessing its impact and developing patches.

A critical security vulnerability […] has been identified by renowned security researcher Simone Margaritelli.
Yep, it’s linking to that post.
