Выпуск пакетного фильтра iptables 1.8.12

После полутора лет разработки опубликован выпуск классического инструментария для управления пакетным фильтром iptables 1.8.12, развитие которого последнее время сосредоточено на компонентах для сохранения обратной совместимости - iptables-nft и ebtables-nft, предоставляющих утилиты с тем же синтаксисом командной строки, как в iptables и ebtables, но транслирующих полученные правила в байткод nftables. Оригинальный набор программ iptables, включая ip6tables, arptables и ebtables, в 2018 году переведён в разряд устаревших и уже заменён на nftables в большинстве дистрибутивов.

Rudra is a new keyboard-driven launcher for GNOME Shell

The world isn’t short on keyboard-based Linux launchers. Albert, Ulauncher, rofi and GNOME Do (if you’re old enough to remember that one) are among those I’ve written about in the past. Rudra is a new spin on this old staple – albeit without the extensibility dedicated quick launchers provide. What’s different here is that it’s implemented as a GNOME Shell extension, not a standalone app. The developer of Rudra, Nark Agni, describes it as a “lightning-fast, keyboard-centric launcher […] designed for power users”. Though inspired by Mac apps like Alfred and Raycast, it is far less capable than those. To […]

Оценка надёжности паролей, сгенерированных большими языковыми моделями

Представлены результаты анализа надёжности паролей, генерируемых большими языковыми моделями и AI-ассистентами. Исследователи попросили модели Claude, ChatGPT и Gemini сгенерировать надёжный 16-символьный пароль и во всех случаях получили результат, на первый взгляд отвечающий всем требованиям к безопасным паролям и признаваемый утилитами для проверки качества паролей как надёжный. Пароли сочетали в себе символы в разных регистрах, спецсимволы и числа, но при лишь выглядели безопасными, а на деле имели минимальную энтропию, формировались по типовому шаблону и при повторных запросах образовывали закономерность, в силу построении контента большими языковыми моделями на основе предсказания токенов.
