  • Switch tests from YAML to YAML::PP This is mainly to avoid YAML::Syck being loaded, which can't handle some of our YAML (?!)


This isn't directly perl-related, but it's a good reminder that as the bus-factor of our projects dwindle down to 0, the danger of a dependency attack goes up.

Obligatory XKCD

The story is still unfolding, and I've just been reading it from the HN post

In this case, it appears that the maintainer of xz-utils, who has been maintaining it since 2009 and mentioned online that they don't really have the capacity for it anymore finally had a motivated helper show up to assist with the work 2.5 years ago. That motivated helper now appears to either be a long-con state actor, or a compromised account.

liblzma is used by libsystemd. Redhat and Debian patch ssh to use libsystemd. The startup code of libxz detects when it is loaded into sshd during initialization and replaces a core auth function of sshd with its own copy. The malicious code comes from compressed compiled code within one of the libxz unit test files that gets sneakily injected into the build during the ./configure script. The person who discovered it only found it due to valgrind errors and a slower startup time for ssh, which are mistakes a more sophisticated attacker might not have made.

Oh, and of course the question on everyone's mind, you're probably not affected yet because the latest liblzma is only used in pre-release distros right now. But check if you have xz 5.6 or later. However, the author has been contributing to xz for 2.5 years so who knows if this is the first attack or not...

Hi all,

I have most difficulties to make my LWP::UserAgent to use TLS 1.2/1.3

I tried :

my $ua = new LWP::UserAgent( 'ssl_opts' => { SSL_version => 'TLSv12:!SSLv2:!SSLv3:!TLSv1:!TLSv11', } );

but no success .....

also tried :

$ENV{https_version}=3;

perl v5.32 is not that old, I am very surprised I can't establish connecting to TLS 1.2/1.3 server

Is it a known problem with openSSL version used to compile v5.32 ? if so, can I upgrade the SSL libs only ? or is there an option to pass on to force TLS 1.2/1.3 ?

Windows 10 - strawberry v5.32.1 MSWin32-x64-multi-thread

Thank you very much !

I have a bunch of YAML config files (using YAML::XS) which are multidimensional, and the values can be HASH, ARRAY, or SCALAR. Right now, I have a kind of a template YAML that defines the layout that someone can use as a reference to write a config file. The keys and layout are the same, except instead of having values it has two keys: 1) required (boolean) and 2) type (ARRAY, HASH, STR, etc). What I would like is for a sub to just verify the tree and spit out an error on which key is the problem, but I'm getting kind of lost on trying to loop both trees together.

Here is a small example from a part of a YAML config.

split: level: 3 filter: directories: delete: - \/main.assets$ keep: - S2589004224001688 files: keep: - issue.xml - main.xml - main.pdf 

And here is a small example from the YAML config template that someone uses as a reference.
split: required: True type: HASH group: required: False type: HASH by: required: True type: STR count: required: True type: STR level: required: True type: INT filter: required: False type: HASH directories: required: False type: HASH delete: required: False type: ARRAY keep: required: False type: ARRAY files: required: False type: HASH delete: required: False type: ARRAY keep: required: False type: ARRAY

The Perl and Raku Conference (formerly known as YAPC::NA) is going strong! This year, we are celebrating 25 years, our silver anniversary, in the Silver State, Nevada! The main conference will be in Las Vegas on June 25-27, but there will be hackathons and possibly classes on the day before and the day after the conference (June 24th and 28th), so please consider joining us for the whole week!

The backbone of this conference has always been our tracks of "traditional" talks by community members and what we have come to call the "Hallway Track" the informal exchange of ideas and camaraderie that sparks new projects and fuels collaboration.

This year, we are pleased also to host the presentation of Papers and Posters accepted by the Science Perl Journal!

Registration is open, so your ticket can now be purchased.

Talk submissions are still open, and we are seeking proposals on a wide variety of subjects. This includes language features, personal projects, applications like Koha, and anything that may be of general interest to Perl and Raku programmers. (We had juggling and origami in the past. Fun!)

Speakers who are approved for a talk, paper, or poster will receive a free ticket to the event. The submission deadline is April 5th at 8pm EST, so please send us your submissions soon!

We are planning some special activities during the conference to celebrate our rich 25-year history.

Go now to https://tprc.us/ to check out what is planned and to book a room (see link to Alexis Park Resort under "Location"). Rooms start at only $75 per night, so it’s worth booking early!

The best way to register for the conference is at https://tprc2024.sched.com/tickets

Thanks, TPRC Admins
