xz-utils backdoor situation (CVE-2024-3094)

FAQ on the xz-utils backdoor (CVE-2024-3094)

This is a living document. Everything in this document is made in good faith of being accurate, but like I just said; we don't yet know everything about what's going on.

Update: I've disabled comments as of 2025-01-26 to avoid everyone having notifications for something a year on if someone wants to suggest a correction. Folks are free to email to suggest corrections still, of course.

Backup and Restore Appwrite, the lazy way 🐌
# Make sure to stop Appwrite before this backup,
# and make sure you have enough space on the machine.
# After backing up, make sure there is a file in 'backups/backup-___.tar.gz'.
# Also please check size of this file, it should be at least 5kb, even for small instances.
docker run --rm \
-v appwrite_appwrite-mariadb:/backup/appwrite-mariadb \
-v appwrite_appwrite-redis:/backup/appwrite-redis \
-v appwrite_appwrite-cache:/backup/appwrite-cache \

Writing C software without the standard library
Linux Edition
###################################################################
There are many tutorials on the web that explain how to build a
simple hello world in C without the libc on AMD64, but most of them
stop there.
I will provide a more complete explanation that will allow you to
build yourself a little framework to write more complex programs.

Things to commit just before leaving your job
// Just before switching jobs:
// Add one of these.
// Preferably into the same commit where you do a large merge.
//
// This started as a tweet with a joke of "C++ pro-tip: #define private public",
// and then it quickly escalated into more and more evil suggestions.
// I've tried to capture interesting suggestions here.
