Comment on Ask HN: Am I safe regarding xz?

Comments

based on what is currently known, arch was never vulnerable to the backdoor that was discovered. arch doesn't patch sshd so that it links systemd like how debuntu/fedora do, which was a requirement for the backdoor.

ofc this doesn't rule out any as-of-yet unknown vulnerabilities in xz/liblzma.
