Some versions of Unreal3.2.8.1.tar.gz contain a backdoor
- rbanffy 16y agoFor a moment, I thought he was talking about the game...
- dRother 16y agoMe too, I was thinking about how I was looking for an upgrade to the Linux UT 2003 a while back and couldn't find it on the official site. I decided downloading it from some random place was risky, and here was almost my reinforcing, validating catharsis - but alas, it's just about some IRC client that nobody uses.
- rbanffy 16y agoIt was a very good game. A couple months back I found the original (Windows) CD and wanted to install it on my Linux netbook, but, unfortunately, couldn't find it. Gave up completely.
- daeken 16y agoErr, this isn't an IRC client, but an IRC server. I don't know about this specific version, but the unreal ircd is quite well used. This is big news.
- Zev 16y agoYup, very bad for a lot of smaller IRC networks; 3.2.8.1 is the latest version of UnrealIRCd and what most of them (assuming that they are up to date) are on.
- buster 16y agoThat's what MD5 sums should really be more often used.
- marbu 16y agoI don't think so. Checksumming is useful for detection of errors during download. When it comes to security, we have pgp.
