This week we start out with the critical OpenSSH bug, where some systems let you log in with any password over 256 characters. Then there's the end of the 7.4 merge window, a really exciting Linux release slated for the holidays, and boasting the biggest single version changeset in the kernel's history. OpenAI has found nearly a thousand vulnerabilities in the kernel, GOG Galaxy is officially coming to Linux, OpenShot releases 4.1, and Asahi Linux is making progress and some big changes to the project. For tips we have ccrypt for file encryption and decryption, rmlint for finding unneeded files, gio for lots of things including emptying the trash, and ebook-polish for cleaning up your EPUBs. The show notes are at https://bit.ly/4iE8Wsb and have a great week!
