I cannot, i did some searches when i wrote the comment but could not find info about it. It is possible that i am confusing it with another project. I added a iirc but maybe that was not clear enough that i am not sure about it.

That’s simply bad software practice, which was fixed once pointed out. Fact is that if they had done this on purpose, they wouldn’t have changed it and instead, would’ve came up with an excuse to keep it the same way.
This is not correct. While they have removed it from being installed on newer installs/updates, the certificate remains on the system that ran the corresponding version installer/upgrade unless it will be manually removed by the few percent that got the news.
I am talking about it in general. If you trust it or not depends on you. I am just saying that the argument that it is OS or that you can host the server yourself does not automatically mean that it is safe. That applies to any software.
It could install software that transmits the data some time else. Basically something virus would do. The code can be hidden somewhere or loaded from somewhere with simple code.
Those are basic tactics used for years by malware. If just simply monitoring would be enough to protect against malware then we would have way less problems.
You should never run untrusted code or code by untrusted ppl.
You are not running the software cause you do not trust the ppl running it? So you do host the software anyway? Just because it is OS and just because you can run it on your own hardware does not mean you can blindly trust it.
The installer has included a root certificate before that gets installed without asking. Also there are some code blobs in the code iirc.
Also how they handled the initial wayland “support”.
It is relatively easy to smuggle in backdoors if you are the maintainer of the code and afaik there was not even an independent audit.
Saying it is fine just because of it being OS is really naive.
Open standards are the first step of a functional transition to an open government. From there Open Source Software can compete against commercial software, once the ppl see that the FOSS offers the same features then the proprietary paid software they can easily switch to it. With open standards they only need to train the users, no data to migrate etc.
Focus instead on enforcing standards’ compliance so i can open a
.docx
with any program and be usable anywhere.
That’s an impossible task. Not even Microsoft manages that. Do not want to count how often i used libreOffice to repair or convert an older MSOffice file so it can be opend with modern Versions of MSOffice.
Once there was a 500MB Excel Sheet with lime 500-1000 used Cells, opened and saved it to.a xlsx file using libreOffice and reduced it to a few MB while still being fully functional.
Wasn’t the CVE fixed in a reasonable time frame? I seriously doubt that the maintainers would have ignored it if it wouldn’t have been discussed so publicly.
AFAIK, to exploit it, you need network access to CUPS then add the printer and then the client needs to add/select a new printer on the client device and actively print something.
If CUPS is reachable from the internet, then the system/network is misconfigured anyway, no excuse for ignoring the issue but those systems have other sever issues anyway.
Basically, when you do not run server side transcoding and instead rely on client side support you will run from time to time into issues. Jellyfin does not have the ppl to get every client to work with all the different formats on every hardware.
1080 h264/h265 does not say much about the media format. Those codec differentiate in things like Chroma (4:2:0; 4:4:4, etc) or in color depth like 8 or 10 bit. So not every h264 media file does run on the same hardware. Audio codecs are even more complicated.
I think since i setup my hardware transcoding I ran into a not playable file once. But depending on the hardware it can be worse. On android TV you may have to play around with the settings.
I understand that this can be a deal breaker for some ppl.
Yep. Also claimed “it affects all GNU/Linux” while it only really does CUPS and so on.
Just alone full disclosure is a shit thing to do. Do not even mention the part where it was intended as a responsible disclosure.
Qualcomm did work together with Microsoft and the Vendors closely together before the launch to create those devices.
Linux device vendors probably did not get the same treatment. So give it time. Also, why not buy a windows laptop and put linux on it?
Thanks my bad. OP was talking about ethernet in some of his comments so i somehow thought it was about an USB connected NIC.
I agree, all this attention grabbing sound to me as if this is actually not a big deal. But we will see i guess.

EAS is not implemented so imap and pop3 only. But i heard they currently work on EAS and should be arriving in the near future.
For EAS there is also a paid plugin Owl i think.
You want to run jellyfin with the jellyfin user. Otherwise access to all the files, configs and logs get screwed up or are not accessible
Only if you delete the partitions and create them new on the same blocks.
If you enlarge them, you should be fine.
if i recall correctly
