Kwiintsuku ezimbalwa ezidlulileyo I-malware ibhaqwe okanye ikhowudi ekhohlakeleyo kwindawo yokugcina edumileyo yeArch Linux distro, ngokukodwa kwiArch User Repository okanye AUR njengoko yaziwa. Kwaye akukho nto intsha, sele sibonile kwezinye iimeko ukuba abanye abaphuli be-intanethi bahlasele njani iiseva ezithile apho usasazo lweLinux kunye neepakethe zesoftware zabanjwa ukuze ziziguqule ngekhowudi ekhohlakeleyo okanye ngasemva kwaye ziguqule iitshekhi ukuze abasebenzisi bangazi oku. ukuhlasela nokuba bafaka into engakhuselekanga kwiikhompyuter zabo.
Ewe, ngeli xesha yayikwindawo yokugcina i-AUR, ke le khowudi inobungozi yayinokosulela abanye abasebenzisi abasebenzise lo mphathi wepakethe kwi-distro yabo kwaye equlathe loo nto. ikhowudi engalunganga. Iiphakheji bekufanele ukuba ziqinisekisiwe phambi kofakelo, kuba ngaphandle kwazo zonke izibonelelo ezibonelelwa yi-AUR ukuze zihlanganise kwaye zifakwe iipakethi ngokulula ukusuka kwikhowudi yayo yomthombo, akuthethi ukuba kufuneka sithembe loo khowudi yomthombo. Ke ngoko, bonke abasebenzisi kufuneka bathathe amanyathelo okhuseleko phambi kokufaka, ngakumbi ukuba sisebenza njenge-sysadmins yeseva ebalulekileyo okanye inkqubo...
Enyanisweni, i-website ye-AUR ilumkisa ukuba umxholo kufuneka usetyenziswe phantsi koxanduva lomsebenzisi, omele athathe umngcipheko. Kwaye ukufunyanwa kwale malware kuyayingqina, kule meko I-Acroread yalungiswa nge-7 kaJulayi, iphakheji eyayiyinkedama kwaye ingenamlondolozi yatshintshwa ngumsebenzisi ogama lingu-xeactor oquka umyalelo we-curl wokukhuphela ikhowudi yescript ngokuzenzekelayo kwi-pastebin, eyazisa esinye iskripthi esathi Ngokulandelayo, bavelisa ukufakela iyunithi ye-systemd ukwenzela ukuba baphumeze esinye iskripthi kamva.
Kwaye kubonakala ngathi ezinye iipakethe ezimbini ze-AUR zilungiswe ngendlela efanayo ngeenjongo ezingekho mthethweni. Okwangoku, abo banoxanduva lwe-repo bazisusile iipakethe ezitshintshiweyo kwaye bayicimile iakhawunti yomsebenzisi owenze njalo, ngoko kubonakala ngathi ezinye iiphakheji ziya kukhuseleka okwangoku. Ngaphezu koko, kuba uxolo lwengqondo kwabo bachaphazelekayo, ikhowudi ekhohlakeleyo efakiweyo ayizange yenze nantoni na enzima ngokwenene koomatshini abachaphazelekayo, zama nje (ewe, kuba impazamo kwenye yemibhalo ithintele ububi obukhulu) layisha ulwazi oluthile kwinkqubo yexhoba.
