CVE-2019-5736: Escape from Docker and Kubernetes Containers to Root on Host

We then tell git bisect to run the command lein test on each commit until the command exits with a 0 exit code, indicating that we’ve found the first broken commit.

According to git-bisect(1), "the script should exit with code 0 if the current source code is good, and exit with a code between 1 and 127 (inclusive), except 125, if the current source code is bad."

Bitcrypt broken 12 years ago

Ransomware crypto fail:

  The number has 128 digits, which could indicate a (big)
  mistake from the malware author, who wanted to generate
  a 128 bytes key.
  Finally, we simply deal with RSA-464 encryption, which
  can easily be broken on a standard PC in a matter of hours.

I think there's more here than what can be fixed with tape. Your computer has computers in it that can be re-programmed in ways that the OS doesn't tell you about. From the pdf:

  The same technique that allows us to disable the LED, namely 
  reprogramming the firmware that runs on the iSight, enables
  a virtual machine escape whereby malware running inside a
  virtual machine reprograms the camera to act as a USB Human
  Interface Device (HID) keyboard which executes code in the host
  operating system.
