In light of 'Hacker Summer Camp 2022' (BlackHat USA, BSides LV and DEFCON) occurring right now, we wanted to push out Kali Linux 2022.3 as a nice surprise for everyone to enjoy. With the publishing of this blog post, we have the download links ready for immediate access, or you can update any existing installation. It would not be a Kali release if there were not any new tools added. A quick rundown of what has been added (to the network repositories): BruteShark - network analysis tool; DefectDojo - open-source application vulnerability correlation and security orchestration tool; phpsploit - stealth post-exploitation framework; shellfire - exploiting LFI/RFI and command injection vulnerabilities; SprayingToolkit - password spraying attacks against Lync/S4B, OWA and O365. There have been numerous packages updates as well.
We are pleased to announce the release of TrueNAS SCALE 22.02.3 (Angelfish). This new release has several bug fixes and improvements and a few new features. See the Release Notes below for more details.
This release isn’t shipping with big improvements from our side but has some corrections to the Artemis release from last month and an upstream refresh for the live environment and the offline install option. So there aren’t any fixes done on the DE options like the empty icon on our Plasma installations. We are working on it, but most of our team is in Summer holiday mode, so these changes will be shipping on one of our upcoming major releases later this year.
Garuda Linux release 220808
- Updated the kernel to the Long-Term-Supported linux-5.15.587 - “cow_label” and “cow_directory” boot options can now also be set via the YAML config file - New “nomdlvm” boot option doesn’t activate md raid and lvm devices, preventing disk writes (#272) - Speed up boot process and fix pacman usage by using a preconfigured pacman trust database (#290) - Improve “mountall” script: detect more partitions, ignore swap, LUKS encryption support - Improve “mountall” script: add –readonly option, reuse empty mountpoints - Fix DNS name resolution during the initramfs boot phase - The “ca-trust” config option is applied to Firefox too - Add options to the “sysconfig” scope of YAML configs: timezone, authorized_keys, bookmarks - Fix configuration when there is no YAML file at all (e.g. when booting via PXE) - Added packages: rclone, qemu-img, multipath-tools, unrar
Replaces Ubuntu 21.10 (Impish) build with build based on Ubuntu 22.04 (Jammy) for best support of new hardware. Builds latest version of partclone from source code v0.3.20, instead of OS package. This fixes 'unsupported feature' error for users of compressed BTRFS filesystems (such as Fedora Workstation 33 and newer). Removed old partclone v0.2.43 used to maximize legacy Redo Backup compatibility (modern partclone still provides good backwards compatibility). Fixed execution of Clonezilla EFI NVRAM script to better correctly handle reboot on EFI systems. Switched Firefox to using the Mozilla Team PPA repository, because new Snap packaging is incompatible with Rescuezilla's build scripts. Added ability to compress images using bzip2 algorithm.
For 4.3.2, added SeaMonkey, version 2.53.13, and bumped Limine to 3.14.1.
