The Oligo Security blog discloses a web-browser vulnerability that has been named "0.0.0.0 day". In short, browsers will allow JavaScript code to open connections to the all-zeroes IPv4 address; the result is that any port that is open on the local host can be accessed by a remote site. "When services use localhost, they assume a constrained environment. This assumption, which can (as in the case of this vulnerability) be faulty, results in insecure server implementations."

Endless OS is a Linux distribution with a focus on improving access to educational tools by providing a simple-to-manage, full-featured desktop for educators and students — one that works offline, with minimal maintenance. The distribution also aims to be suitable for older devices, in order to promote access to computers by ensuring those systems remain usable. In pursuit of those goals, it makes some unusual technical choices. But what makes the distribution really shine is its curated collection of software and educational resources.

Mozilla has announced that Puppeteer, a browser automation and testing library, now has first-class support for Firefox using the WebDriver BiDi protocol. Puppeteer can be used to drive headless browser instances, and is commonly used for automated end-to-end web-site tests.

Whilst the features offered by Puppeteer won't be a surprise, bringing support to multiple browsers has been a significant undertaking. The Firefox support is not based on a Firefox-specific automation protocol, but on WebDriver BiDi, a cross browser protocol that's undergoing standardization at the W3C, and currently has implementation in both Gecko and Chromium. This use of a cross-browser protocol should make it much easier to support many different browsers going forward.

The desire for the ability to checkpoint a process — to record its state in a form that can be restarted at a future time — on Linux is almost as old as Linux itself. See, for example, this announcement of a checkpoint project that appeared in LWN in 1998. While working solutions exist, they can be somewhat fragile and difficult to use; it is not surprising that some people are interested in finding a better alternative. A current effort goes by the name CRIB, for Checkpoint/Restore in (naturally) BPF. It is far from clear that CRIB will replace the existing solutions, but it is an interesting look at a different way of solving the problem.

There are lots of places in the kernel where an EINVAL can be returned to user space, but it is often unclear what the actual underlying problem is because the errno error codes are too generic. That is the problem that Miklos Szeredi wanted to discuss in a filesystem session that he led remotely at the 2024 Linux Storage, Filesystem, Memory Management, and BPF Summit. He would like to help those who are trying to debug problems trace where in the kernel a particular error code is being generated.
