Hi,
I'm seeing weird things.
For whatever reason Source for xz was changed 2 months ago[1] to use GH releases instead of tukaani.org site.
The XZ page[2] has a note stating:
"Note: GitHub automatically includes two archives Source code (zip) and Source code (tar.gz) in the releases. These archives cannot be disabled and should be ignored."
And they wayback WayBackMachine[3] doesn't have previous versions.
Do we know if GH release tarballs are safe? @richard, do you remember why you had to change the source for the tarball?
Sadly the release tarballs we used *do* contain the vulnerability. I checked myself that the payload is present in the final xz RPMs.
Rich.

Hi,
wow: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/
I think at this point we clearly cannot trust xz upstream anymore and should probably fork the project.
