What a perfect shit-storm! - What people are saying about the filter protocol, and anything else that interprets the files. - Why do people insist on making all remote file protocols transparent? Fuck that, a file is a file! If you want to support some remote stuff, do that on the OS, where it's opt-in. - And PHP keeps insisting it's not a web framework while being a web framework. So it has no access control around local file reading, while clearly designing it to be used in a way where only a few directories should be accessible. - A buffer overflow in glibc, go figure... But yeah, C is perfect and the only issue is that the devs don't know the language well enough or there aren't enough people reviewing this niche library. - Didn't everybody decide to ditch the pre-unicode encodings from the standard tools? I remember the announcement (that was supposed to include glibc), it made a lot of people angry. Those have been an endless source of CVEs.
