Gna! frontend back - change your passwords
     posted by beuc, Thu 02 Dec 2010 10:24:16 PM UTC - 521 replies

Following the password compromise at Savannah, which is also running the Savane Forge, we took the frontend down so we could investigate.

The (earlier) version at Gna! appears not to be impacted by the SQL injection. However it also uses (weak) MD5 hashes for storing encrypted passwords. ...

New kernel & clean-up
     posted by beuc, Thu 01 Jul 2010 08:55:01 PM UTC - 867 replies

We've done a few reboots to use a newer kernel, install newer VServer utilities, test that everything boots unattended, and hence add the last touch to the virtualization reorganization we've performed over the last few months :)

On other news, there will be a talk about Savane at the LSM/RMLL 2010 - http://2010.rmll.info/A-new-Savane.html !

Arch SSH host key changed
     posted by beuc, Fri 12 Mar 2010 10:15:26 PM UTC - 89 replies

Arch now shares a virtual machine with the download/sftp service.
Consequently, arch's SSH host key is now the same than download/sftp, and thus changed to:

# ssh-keygen -l -f ssh_host_rsa_key.pub
1024 db:cd:a2:94:c7:73:e3:43:0b:77:a2:4d:59:ec:16:2d ssh_host_rsa_key.pub
# ssh-keygen -l -f ssh_host_dsa_key.pub
1024 4c:cd:1d:af:06:a7:70:e9:fe:39:28:21:41:6c:54:e7 ssh_host_dsa_key.pub
