KDE backdoor

My dudes, KDE has a shit load of dependencies, convince me there's no backdoor in there. I love KDE, but I'm scared there's a backdoor in there.

>being this paranoid
you might as well just kill yourself

There is, the other day plasma was making http connections for no reason

Install gentoo

Post your evidence there is a back door.

(you) don't really comprehend what this whole "open source" thing is all about, do (you)?

It's open source. Go read it and leave out anything you don't trust when you compile it.

You do compile your own builds, right user?

Vulnerabilities yes probably but backdoor? I don't think so. Next time you notice traffic you can't explain use nethogs or soething like that.

t.pedo

wtf is that supposed to mean?

look at source code and try to understand it

Source?

Check wireshark

Repeat after me. Paranoia is a mental disease. No one cares about what you do. No one cares if you live or die in general. You're wasting your life away """hardening""" security on your Linux machine while others enjoy life to the fullest. Shut it down and go outside. Go for a hike. Go to the zoo. Don't try to chat with people just yet because you're a colossal autist and you'll die from embarrassment. Just fucking turn off this computer and start living.

Print out all the source code and have it bounded and covered. Read it at least twice before you ever turn your computer on and then as it boots simulate the boot process in your head from what you have read and compare the two. If it boots exactly as you imagined than you are good to proceed. If not it is probably hackers.

Why do most russian guys I know have Alex as their name?

The chinese implement low level backdoors into everything they produce, go live in a forest with no technology if you can't live with that

Not OP, but most OSS projects don't have security audits like the openbsd project does. I'm not personally paranoid about this kind of stuff, but security is something that should be taken seriously. Remember the early XP days when MS didn't?

too bad you could still be tracked down even when you're inawoods meme

I thinks it's short for Alexey, a common name

I figure theres a backdoor in everything and the only solution is to keep your machine where you store your sensitive shit encrypted and off the internet.

If I was you I'll more concerned about hardware backdoor

I want to fugg libbie.

shouldn't you prove your claims first?

I don't know if it got a backdoor but I know for sure is krap.

Alex, calm down, we all know what you watch already.

we know you watch kiddie porn, alex

It looks like an image taken from google images, where's the reference to porn?

wtf? cryptocurrencies my dude, nothing to do with

t. CIA nigger

OP here. My dudes, the reason I'm concerned about security is because I'm into cryptocurrencies, nothing to do with

there probably are a few somewhere. use another computer as a router and run on that one to check for odd connections.

no. he's right. and it's not funny. you are bordering on real mental illness.

lemme add: KDE is full of bugs, and I really doubt most KDE devs care much about basic security.

install selinux

Bugs? Sure. devs don't care about security? Nonsense. kde.org/info/security/

out of curiousity, why are these pseudo-legal (((teen modeling studios))) a thing in russland and ukr?

here at baltics parents don't seem to sell their daughters into prostitution-lite.

CIA nigger detected

>Bugs? Sure.
and I bet a good % of those bugs are security bugs, which only a few people have bothered looking into, because barely anyone gives a shit about KDE and would waste time on it, having better targets to analyze and exploit. that is, unless you are a target for certain groups, governments or something...

>kde.org/info/security/
so? they publish an email address where you can report security bugs, and a (really short) list of security advisories. that's not much...
where are those security audits? where is the information on security mechanisms in the code (Qt, IPC/RPC, intra-process, etc.)

lemme give you an example: WebKit is the browser engine that was born as a fork of KHTML, and it's (still, in 2018) full of bugs, and, from a security point of view, it sucks. KDE uses WebKit as the engine in rekonq. these things are very complex and require good knowledge of security and lots of resources, which KDE lacks. if it wasn't for the Google guys submitting patches to WebKit, it'd suck even more.
and that's only ONE example.

>is miserable autist
>is racist
coincidence?

welcome to Sup Forums, newfag

I wish I could suffocate you under a play allow, you NSA nigger

oh how i wish this were accurate

No idea what you're talking about! I'm not even russian, just took the image from google images and posted here.
