From 5a4f440888ad62f022b15ae63ed9e3ddf6c8b36f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: inference On 2024-03-29, a
backdoor was publicly disclosed
in the
- xz-utils
+ XZ Utils
software. Inferencium systems did have the affected versions of
this software installed, and the tools were used. The software has since been downgraded to
the last-known safe version.
I completely support Lasse Collin during this time. Support should be provided to him for + what occurred to his project and how it was sabotaged. He clearly had good intentions and + was burnt out from the commitment to his project, which led to Jia Tan taking advantage of + him. He has posted + his own, official statement + on behalf of the XZ Utils project and how it intends to move forward. Assistance should be + provided to support both him and the community.
