IRC log for #devuan on 20170620

00:01.00golinuxNot sure how antix does it but this how MX is systemd-free: https://mxlinux.org/wiki/system/systemd - just disabled by default but not at all neutered . . .
00:01.13golinuxNematocyst: ^^^
00:01.33Nematocystyeah, i figured it wasn't as thorough as devuan
00:02.06golinuxThose two distros are closely related so I assume thinking much alike.
00:02.09Nematocystpartly it is because of lack of the more advanced window managers
00:03.21golinuxThey don't touch systemd.  It's all there just waiting to do whatever on zero day . . .
00:07.40DocScrutinizer05on systemd I'm not waiting for day 0 but rather for the criticality incident

00:28.16Nematocystit's amusing to me that one of the arguments for systemd is faster booting.  i haven't done more than 10 machines, but evey one i've moved off of systemd (some -> devuan, some -> antix, some removing it from jessie on headless servers), in each case boot times improved

01:15.59jonadabBooting, isn't that the thing you do when there's been a power outage and you have to wait for fsck anyway, because it's been hundreds of days since the last fsck?
01:17.53furrywolfyou power off for power outages?  pm-hibernate!  :)
01:18.11jonadabWell, you know, desktop systems.
01:18.22furrywolfthat's what a UPS is for.
01:18.32jonadabAt some point I should get a UPS again.  The one I had was consumer grade and died the first time there was a power outage.

06:24.47lowinHello. I have installed networkmanager and everything seems good but I can't seem to manage to find a way to disable ipv6.. The problem is that something(maybe networkmanager) pulls ipv6 dns ip from dhcp server and overrides my custom ipv4 dns for some reason
06:24.56lowinAny help is appreciated
06:28.35lowinI don't care about having ipv6 or not. I just want it to not mess with my dns settings. I even tried manually providing a custom ipv6 dns in network manager but it still reverts to using dhcpv6 dns within a few seconds of connecting
06:28.58lowinSo maybe there is some other service than networkmanager doing some funny business?

08:51.43gnarfaceVall: most the packages in jessie are in fact pulled from debian directly, unaltered.  that should happen without delay.  there are some cases where recompilation is necessary and that may slow stuff down, but so far that doesn't include the kernels
08:52.05Vallthanks for the info, gnarface.
08:52.10gnarfaceno problem
08:52.24gnarfacei would have answered earlier to save you some time, but i wasn't here
08:52.47VallAnd it seems it doesn't affect glibc (aka libc6) either, as it is also up-to-date regarding StackClash
08:52.51*** join/#devuan cocoadaemon (~foo@x53.octopuce.fr)
08:53.40gnarfaceyea, so far the recompiled packages are just ones that have a direct dependency on systemd that has been added since wheezy

08:55.19VallI'm glad to see that the systemd cancer hasn't metastasised into the kernel nor into libc6 yet
08:56.05Vallas it has contaminated a *lot* of stuff, I was afraid it had made its way into the kernel and libc too
09:03.50fsmithredit has to get past Linus to do that
09:04.09fsmithredand it won't unless it's good code
09:05.25KatolaZfsmithred: this is exactly what scares me....
09:07.31Vallfsmithred, KatolaZ: I don't think Linus gives half a shit anymore about a lot of things...
09:08.11KatolaZVall: he still decides what goes in the kernel and what does not
09:08.36VallKatolaZ: sure, he decides. But does he care enough to decide what's right?
09:08.52VallHis cavalier attitude regarding systemd is the second serious disappointment I've had on him
09:09.44Vall(the first one was the discontinuation of the "even: stable, odd: development" kernel numbering/maintainance policy
09:09.49KatolaZVall: I have never liked Linus, and his attitudes towards many things
09:10.13VallI used to like him and his attitudes until about 6 years ago
09:11.02VallThat was more or less when he started not giving half a shit to things anymore

13:18.13DeFendergnarface, based on the combination of https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/CVE-2017-1000366 and the fact that my upgrade just now said "Setting up libc-dev-bin (2.19-18+deb8u10)" your "yes" would seem to be correct.

14:37.07DeFenderbrabo, seems unlikely.
14:37.22DeFenderbrabo, most of this stuff is discovered by researchers before attackers.
14:37.48braboDeFender: i would not dare make that assumption, quite the contrary
14:38.12braboi assume that at the point where after 7 years a researcher finds such vuln it has actively been exploited by certain actors for years
14:38.13DeFenderbrabo, but yeah, a vulnerability in such a fundamental and basic piece of software management code is quite inexcusable.
14:38.25*** join/#devuan Everche (~zaiwr4@221.217.218.91)
14:38.34brabonot inexcusable, we are all human and miss things
14:38.45DeFenderbrabo, perhaps, although once they find these vulnerabilities, they can generally then detect if anything has been using it, now that they know what to look for.
14:38.47*** join/#devuan furrywolf (~randyg@172.56.38.40)
14:38.58brabomy assumption is just that after so much time there are actors in possession of working exploits and actively using them
14:39.06brabobut who's going to know if they are skilled?
14:39.52braboi guess it really really depends on luck in how far one could verify since when an exploit has been used
14:40.37braboi also guess a skilled attacker would exploit and be good enough to hide his tracks that it may very well be impossible to determine what vector was used
14:41.00braboso, my final guess is that it depends on what type of actor is using it
14:44.52DeFenderalso true.
14:45.47DeFenderthough, since in this case it's only local, it means there'd have to be some kind of program which existed locally that would contain telltale signs of code attempting to cause a stack collision.
14:45.53brabooh wow
14:46.06braboyou make an extremely dangerous assumption there
14:46.17*** join/#devuan thaller (thaller@nat/redhat/x-tmvqbcxzjkrtnpnt)
14:46.21brabolet me quote qualys on that: "The one remote application that we did investigate (the Exim mail server) turned out to be unexploitable by sheer luck."
14:46.24brabosheer luck
14:46.26DeFenderthe local-only exploits tend to be harder to use effectively and silently, while the remote exploits tend to be less dangerous in nature.
14:46.34DeFenderthese are all generalizations, of course.
14:46.46DeFenderbrabo, yes, I'm aware.
14:46.55braboi guess any service with some on itself insignificant vuln or memory mishandling could be used too
14:47.05DeFenderbrabo, nothing I'm saying is a definite. These are merely generalizations and probabilities.
14:47.06braboso don't say local-only
14:47.17brabobecause it highly likely isn't
14:47.38DeFenderthat's a good point.
14:47.47braboi thought so at least haha ;)
14:48.02DeFenderthough it would probably require some other vulnerability in an application as well
14:48.06braboi've heard X people state this one is local-only today
14:48.16brabono i did not upgrade box Y cause it is local only
14:48.20brabostuff like that
14:48.42DeFenderso, let's say there's a remote-execution overflow vuln in some application, then that could be used to overwrite and expand the stack looking for a collision... much harder to do effectively though.
14:48.48DeFenderstill, as you say, possible.
14:48.51braboyes, but it could very well be something that in itself is insignificant, and perhaps even known and just not fixed due to no big priority
14:48.53*** join/#devuan Latr_work (~Latrwork@207.218.29.129)
14:49.15DeFenderwell, "no i did not upgrade box Y cause it is local only" is an idiotic statement
14:49.22brabothe fact qualys says exim was not exploitable by sheer luck seems to indicate to me they are confident there are plenty of others that would be exploitable
14:49.27DeFenderI upgraded the moment I heard about it.
14:50.21brabothat's all we can do, upgrade asap
14:50.45DeFenderbrabo, well, yes, that's always a factor. "Minor" vulnerabilities not fixed because "eh, what can you really do with that anyway?" that then give just the crack someone needs when combined with another "minor" vulnerability.
14:51.22braboyes indeed
14:51.32DeFenderYou've got to laugh at a world where our approach to dealing with bugs is not to fix them immediately, but to builg a database to store the bugs because we have so many.
14:51.34brabosometimes it is good to have vulns
14:51.53braboi know of a mouse manufacturer that had its ass saved due to memory mismanagement
14:51.58brabo:p
14:53.17DeFenderMy day job has a zero-bug policy. We don't have a bug tracker. If a real bug that isn't just user error is reported, the promary dev in charge of the piece of code where the bug occurs drops whatever else they're doing to fix it. Major, minor, doesn't matter, it gets fixed immediately so the bugs don't pile up and combine in horrible ways.
14:53.30DeFenderbrabo, what's this story with the mouse manufacturer?
14:54.20braboDeFender: they produced a new gaming mouse and shipped it to then realise they fucked up big time, they thought they had some update cap coded in, but that part was commented out
14:54.46DeFenderBut they also had some kind of overwrite vuln that allowed them to patch it?
14:54.56braboa friend was hired to correct the situation and developed an exploit to add update caps to the firmware due to finding some pointers he could control
14:55.06DeFendernice.
14:55.12braboso by the time the mice arrived at clients, there was a tool to "update" their firmwares
14:55.35braboyeah, this guy is good
14:55.41brabotook him 2 or 3 days only
14:56.00DeFenderthough in that kind of case, they should really build in a proper update vector rather than lucking out that their incompetence underflowed into success.
14:57.10brabono shit :)
14:58.33DeFendermy point is, your statement that "sometimes it is good to have vulns" is really only true if you're already being a moron.
14:58.56braboi don't think so

16:11.48KatolaZGuest23790: most of those "worrying" files are, again, unit files provided by different packages
16:12.14KatolaZa unit file is what a daemon/service should provide in order for it to be managed by systemd

16:13.42calamariGuest23790: if you'd like to know which package a file came from, you can do dpkg -S FILENAME_PATH, then dpkg -s PKGNAME
16:13.53Guest23790So, how do I see if my system is using sysv or using systemd as the init?
16:14.20KatolaZGuest23790: dpkg -l | grep -i systemd
16:14.27KatolaZyou should see only libsystemd0
16:15.11KatolaZand, btw, if you installed devuan or upgraded to devuan, and you are using exclusively Devuan repos, tou *cannot* physically have systemd installed
16:15.23KatolaZunless you have manually got the package and its deps from another source

16:17.48Guest23790Just installed from the Devuan 1.0 live iso.
16:17.55KatolaZGuest23790: libsystemd0 exists because some packages "can" use systemd, if it is present, and in order to do so they need to link libsystemd
