      Anyone who still thinks that is either new to Linux or profoundly naive.

      Also:

      It was patched in January, but as the CISA advisory indicates, some production systems have yet to install it.

      So it’s really primarily a production issue at this point.

          Back in the last century, iirc, or the very early 2000’s, I logged-out of my desktop ( linux ) one time & discovered there was a new user on my machine…

          the new username was “you are dead”.

          1st time I knew I’d been cracked.

          Not a nice feeling.

          Educational, however, & motivating…

          did me good.

          I’m glad the person was more interested in communicating my trusting foolishness to me, than in doing real harm…
