Comment on Kernel.org servers infected with backdoors for two years from 2009parent

Comments

What's new (versus when the story broke years ago) is:

A 47-page report summarizing Ebury's 15-year history said that the infection hitting the kernel.org network began in 2009, two years earlier than the domain was previously thought to have been compromised.

I think you grok that, but I don't think the title is clickbait.

I read the arstechnica post and didn't grok that at all; thanks for explaining. I spent the whole article wondering what prompted them to report on something that happened over a decade ago now.

It definitely buries the lede and is overcomplicated
