So, the supply chain affected wasn't wordpress source but git repos of other malicious tools used to attack stuff, like wordpress. They stole from people stealing stuff. The headline makes it seem like the wordpress source was compromised.
I like it, the interface is super easy to use and I like that you can put a suffix in the url to separate a device name for custom rules or filtering.
Here's microsoft's info: https://msrc.microsoft.com/update-guide/en-US/vulnerability/CVE-2024-49071
MS says they mitigated it without user intervention. Allegedly someone with privileges for Windows Defender could access an index file and send file contents over a network. I couldn't tell if the file contents were just the index itself or file contents from elsewhere on the machine but I think it's the former.
Anyway, MS says it's fixed and pay no attention to the man behind the curtain.

Tallahassee still fighting the good fight. I miss my home, but I've given up on FL ever trending in the right direction. Sad af.
Looks like AMD has already patched it, also appears to affect older Intel versions of the same tech concept but not current generations.
Only really affects guests in multi tenant hypervisor environments, requires physical access to the hypervisor, requires external physical hardware, requires booting the host with said hardware attached, at some point this level of compromise is already absurd. This kind of research is important and shows that we still need to limit out level of trust with host providers but I don't think anyone needs to panic.
Inconceivable!
I think i started spiraling when they started making me do z transformations.
"I'd like to share a revelation I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal on this planet instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with their surrounding environment, but you humans do not. You move to another area, and you multiply, and you multiply, until every natural resource is consumed. The only way you can survive is to spread to another area. There is another organism on this planet that follows the same pattern. Do you know what it is? A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You are a plague, and we are the cure." -- Lord Elrond of Rivendell
