And even without any other source of trust, anyone who is willing to go through the automake/config hell, already scored some initial trust points. I rest my case.

Yes, that is one of the things that turned out to be a bad idea. That's why it was dropped. Look, it's all about trust management. If you trust everyone's good will, like in an academic community, it's fine. If not, you

This might be related to another article about OLE execution, to cast a shadow of doubt that it is not an isolated habit. Having outside stuff executed when not meaning to is always bad. I for one would be badly disappointed, if tar xvf une

Not a terrible idea at all, IMHO. Isn't the core idea of OSS to enable those who use the software to modify it and keep maintaining it? It doesn't mean you have to give it to everyone else as well for free. One reasonable choice w

Yes, but you don't really need the Makefile. Just check out README.md and do as it says, and it should build just fine. Actually just $ gcc -o heartleech -lcrypto -lssl -ldl heartleech.c might work dependening a bit on the distro. Seem

When for instance an AES-key is being used by OpenSSL, it is put into a 'struct aes_key_st' which is not random at all but quite easily recognizable when scanning memory. The Cold Boot attack paper by Halderman, Schoen et al. here

Maybe the whole concept of genius is a bit aged, weird and odd to start with? A glorified genius-concept comes uncomfortably close to the concept of a führer. I think all men are created equal and when someone looks way smarter than the res
