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.

Updated Version:

If you want to download an older version ive heard 205.15 works well, i reccomend ApkMirror

Using a modified app (Android & IOS friendly):

  1. Follow the instructions from https://github.com/vendetta-mod/Vendetta
  2. After the client is installed, navigate to Settings > Plugins, then click the +, and finally paste https://vd-plugins.github.io/proxy/maisymoe.github.io/strife/Experiments into the input and click Install
  3. Once the experiments plugin is enabled, reload the app then go to Settings > Experiments > Tabs V2 - redesign opt-out/in for all and select Control Bucket.

Ive also heard enmity works well for IOS.

17.0.0 Save File Management

Hello! It's been a while since I've done any write-ups, but I thought I'd do one to (hopefully) bring a little clarity to a situation that's been causing a lot of confusion and misinformation.

I'm thinking I'll go through what the problem is and why it happens. So, I guess, let's dive in:

What's happening?

Some people are finding that upon updating to 17.0.0, their consoles are getting a blackscreen and refusing to boot further.

A guide to ANSI on Discord

A guide to ANSI on Discord

Discord is now slowly rolling out the ability to send colored messages within code blocks. It uses the ANSI color codes, so if you've tried to print colored text in your terminal or console with Python or other languages then it will be easy for you.

Quick Explanation

To be able to send a colored text, you need to use the ansi language for your code block and provide a prefix of this format before writing your text:

\u001b[{format};{color}m
# may or may not be inspired by plutoo's ctrrpc
import errno
import socket
import os
import sys
import struct
import codecs
from time import sleep

Discord Timestamp Syntax

Discord Timestamps

Discord timestamps can be useful for specifying a date/time across multiple users time zones. They work with the Unix Timestamp format and can be posted by regular users as well as bots and applications.

The Epoch Unix Time Stamp Converter is a good way to quickly generate a timestamp. For the examples below I will be using the Time Stamp of 1543392060, which represents November 28th, 2018 at 09:01:00 hours for my local time zone (GMT+0100 Central European Standard Time).

Formatting

Style Input Output (12-hour clock) Output (24-hour clock)
Default <t:1543392060> November 28, 2018 9:01 AM 28 November 2018 09:01

IMPORTANT NOTE:

It's come to my attention that some people have been spamming issue trackers with a link to this gist. While it's a good idea to inform people of the situation in principle, please do not do this. By all means spread the word in the communities that you are a part of, after verifying that they are not aware yet, but unsolicited spam is not helpful. It will just frustrate people.

Update 3 (May 24, 2021)

A number of things have happened since the last update.
