RAID5, don’t fail me now!

I will add the following:

TP Link’s sloppy security lead to the creation of a Chinese botnet.

Here are two new vulnerabilities from this month.

Here are some more exploits from 2023

Here are all the TPLink vulnerablies known publicly

Am I really at risk, and anymore than I would be with something from Linksys or Netgear?

As always, depends on your threat model. I have cheap TPLink switch in my home network because its cheap and kept behind a pfsense firewall. The TPLink switch is not allowed to talk to the internet. This is good enough for me as I don’t have a threat model where something attacks the switch from inside my network.

For completeness here are Cisco’s and Netgear’s vulnerabilities. Infosec security is a journey, not a destination.

Good. TPLink makes cartoonishly insecure consumer grade equipment. A better solution is that the US establishes some minimum infosec standards for this equipment, but that would require time and thought.

This actually kills the average Lemmy user.

I have been down that path before with Obsidian and LaTeX (Obsidian was a success and LaTeX was meh). The first step is getting the executables white listed and Its always a PITA with our security team. I need to first convince them it is worth the study, which is always hard because they are not power users. Feature lists help. Win11 explorer being dogshit also helps.

My shell is DOS. :(

I’m going to try to get Dolphin through security review at my company. QUICK everyone start listing reasons why my company should take on the risk of installing Dolphin.

Microsoft messed up File Explorer tabs. If you make a new tab, start a search, the close the tab before the search finishes, you break the URL/path bar text. You cannot see what directory you are in unless you click the path bar. The only way to fix it is you restart the application.

I bet they use Windows

Lemmy is to Reddit what Methadone is to Heroin

I wonder how they intend to tackle white collar crime.
