Fresh gist: mitigating CVE-2026-31431 ("Copy Fail") on RHEL 8/9/10 with a tiny Ansible playbook.
It blacklists algif_aead via a kernel boot arg (initcall_blacklist=algif_aead_init), reboots only when needed, and asserts the mitigation actually stuck after reboot. Idempotent & safe to re-run.

See the widely publicized announcement by the developer of #MidnightBSD, which caused a lot of people, including me, into looking at the actual law.
https://nitter.net/midnightbsd/status/2027101491211718765
The only people concerned with free software, apparently, as the bill made its way through the #California legislature, were Oakland Privacy, and they were only interested in 'gratis' free software on the Google and Apple Stores and the impacts on its development.
The various committee analyses are on that legislature page, and they give the objectors's objections. I have yet to find a mention of BSDs, Linux-based operating systems, or even Unix.
Goodness knows what #IBM is going to do about #RHEL and #RPM. Clearly they completely missed a very important lobbying opportunity. I wonder if the IBM legal people know about this even yet.

Stop running setenforce 0 and pretending SELinux doesn't exist.
I wrote a practical guide to actually working with SELinux on Fedora and RHEL: Contexts, booleans, troubleshooting denials, container volume labels, and the commands you'll actually use.
No policy theory rabbit holes. Just the stuff that gets you unstuck.

Damned, right after I got my first #rhel 10 #microshift image mode iso done, the rugged box won't accept any of my usb sticks as boot device. Just stays in boot screen. It's a nice old dell3200 box. Can one start #bootc install with kexec?
