CentOS on the systems intrusions at Red Hat

Earlier in the day today Red Hat made an announcement [1] that there had been an intrusion into some of their computer systems last week. In the same announcement they mention that some of the packages for OpenSSH on RHEL-4 ( i386 and x86_64 ) as well as RHEL-5 ( x86_64 ) were signed by the intruder. In their announcement they also clarified that they were confident that none of these, potentially compromised, packages made their way into or through RHN to client and customer machines. As a security measure a script [3] was made available along with a semi-detailed description of the issue [2]. We take security issues very seriously, and as soon as we were made aware of the situation I undertook a complete audit of the entire CentOS4/5 Build and Signing infrastructure.

Managing Director Kuhrt: "Leipzig announcement not surprising"

Kuhrt is not surprised at the announcement of the Leipzig trade fair, which for its part will be hosting its own event next year: "It was to be expected that the Leipzig trade fair would try to keep the topic in its 2009 programme as well by announcing its date. But they will have to do it without the industry for the most part. The lead trade fair will take place in Cologne in 2009 and beyond."

Microsoft To Buy Back $40bn of Its Shares

phantomflanflinger writes "As you may have heard already, Microsoft have announced their intentions to buy back $40 billion in stock from their investors, in the biggest single buy-back plan in business history. The announcement has given Microsoft shares a small gain but they still stand significantly below their level in January — before Microsoft's unsolicited bid for Yahoo!.

iPhone Heading To Verizon - Announcement expected in 2009...but...

9 to 5 Mac proclaims that Verizon and Apple will announce in 2009 that the iPhone will be coming to Verizon. That's not particularly surprising, but keep in mind that Verizon can't technically offer the phone until 2010. AT&T and Apple's agreement was renegotiated with the launch of the iPhone 3G, and AT&T's exclusive distribution rights were extended into 2010. Verizon iPhone availability should make many customers happy, given AT&T's network coverage (broadband or otherwise) and call quality simply does not mach up in many of the two companies overlapping markets (upstate NY comes to mind).
