    Oh, nooo! Nobody could have seen *that* coming… oh, wait, yes, yes, we did.

    "The cryptographic backdoor exists in a part of the system that is supposed to verify that all of the ballots and votes counted in an election are the same ones that voters cast. But the flaw could allow someone to swap out all of the legitimate ballots and replace them with fraudulent ones, all without detection."

    1. Researchers Find Critical Backdoor in Swiss Online Voting System
      from Motherboard
      Researchers have found a severe issue in the new Swiss internet voting system that they say would let someone alter votes undetected. They say it should put a halt to Switzerland’s plan to roll out the system in real elections this year.

    Adding this to #infosec

    If you use Debian: you're not getting the recent Intel CPU bugfixes because Intel updated the firmware package's license to state that it's not redistributable.

    If use Linux other than Debian and have the bugfixes: ask your maintainers why they're distributing software they're not legally allowed to.

    And in any case: next time you purchase a CPU, evaluate whether AMD might be a better choice than Intel.

    I'd be rolling on the floor if it wouldn't be so sad, predictable and bad at the same time.

    "Intel really fucked up the Foreshadow and SSBD microcode updates, beyond any of my wildest thoughts.

    They added a long license to the microcode that doesn't allow redistribution, which is why Linux distros aren't patched..."

    Any of my #polish #infosec followers have any specific hints about current best practices in following this up?
    I haven't dealt with such stuff in Poland for years and a lot has changed since I moved away.

    PS: Despite the appearance (Name, etc.) I'm actually Polish and sent the email to the MPK contacts in Polish. Can obviously follow up rest of process in Polish too.
