  • It sounds like Proton VPN (or its repo) is causing issues for you. Given that it’s a paid service, you can probably contact their support.

    Alternatively, you can also look for the repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d, something like /etc/yum.repos.d/file_name.repo, for Proton VPN. You can then disable it by renaming it to .repo.disabled and try again (sudo dnf upgrade in the terminal). Note: This is not really a permanent solution, as it will disable updates for Proton VPN.







  • I wanted to recommend using a Docker container but I ran into the same issue with the default config for “drupal:10-apache” (aka “drupal:10.3.7-apache-bookworm”). Opening “node/add/article” results in the OOM error. Downgrading to “drupal:10.3.6-apache-bookworm” resolved the issue. Looks like a Drupal regression to me. Maybe you can also try an older version of Drupal 11?

    This seems very one-sided. Sure, the disclosure was not handled perfectly. However, this post completely ignores the terrible response by the CUPS team.

    The point on NAT is certainly fair and prevented this from being a much bigger issue. Still, many affected systems were reachable from the internet.

    Lastly, the author tries to downplay the impact of an arbitrary execution vulnerabilty because app armour might prevent it from fully compromising the system. Sure, so I guess we don’t need to fix any of those vulnerabilities /s.


  • This article is conflating terms that I need help distinguishing between. The other commenter mentioned that Ubuntu is a type of Debian but this article lists Debian and Ubuntu as distributions.

    I’d say that the article is correct in calling them separate distributions.They are certainly related (both part of the Debian family), but I think most people would consider them to be separate distributions. Software built for Ubuntu 24.04 may work on Debian 12, but it might also not. For a beginner, I think it’s most useful to consider them to be separate things.


  • I think when I messed it up, it worked when I tried switching to the proprietary drivers for the second time. I think you can try that without much risk.

    In my case I ended up disabling Secure Boot anyway because it just got too annoying (a BIOS update breaking it was the final straw for me). The security benefit after you’ve enrolled a MOK seems dubious anyway. It would be nice if distros could ship signed kernels with the open-source Nvidia driver but I guess that’s not happening.
