Linux Kernel (AWS) update for Ubuntu

Ubuntu 6981 Published 2026-02-14 08:13 by Philipp Esselbach 0

A security issue was found in the Linux kernel for Amazon Web Services (AWS) systems, affecting Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and its derivatives. The issue was fixed by correcting flaws in multiple subsystems, including Nios II architecture, x86 architecture, Block layer subsystem, Cryptographic API, and more. To fix the problem, users need to update their system to specific package versions, reboot, and reinstall any third-party kernel modules that were installed manually.

Linux Kernel 6.12.71 Brings Subtle Fixes for Smoother Performance

Linux 3304 Published 2026-02-13 20:00 by Philipp Esselbach 0

The latest point release of the Linux Kernel 6.12 series has arrived, bringing a few focused fixes that address subtle bugs in areas like virtual socket tests and VLAN packet handling in tunnels. The patches aim to improve the kernel's networking and storage subsystems by ensuring accurate data storage, streamlining io_uring reads for better async performance, and providing clearer error messages when packets are dropped due to VLAN tags.

KDE Frameworks 6.23.0 Brings Faster Baloo Indexing and Improved Memory Safety

KDE 1698 Published 2026-02-13 19:53 by Philipp Esselbach 0

KDE Frameworks 6.23.0 has been released to improve Baloo indexing and overall memory safety, with a focus on cleaning up the file-indexing pipeline and tightening ownership rules across core components. The update also includes changes to Bluez Qt and Breeze icons, such as a new "update-busy" state and color-aware kdeconnect-symbolic assets that respect dark themes. LeakSanitizer has been enabled in the release to catch memory bugs before they ship, although this may result in a modest increase in build time for some projects. Developers who rely on Baloo should consider upgrading to 6.23.0, but those using older Qt versions will need to upgrade their packages first.

MariaDB 12.3.1 RC: Unlock Lightning-Fast Performance with Crash-Safe Binlog

Software 44118 Published 2026-02-13 17:42 by Philipp Esselbach 0

MariaDB 12.3.1 has been released as a first candidate for its long-term support line, bringing significant changes to the binary log, XML data type, and Oracle-compatibility tweaks. The new binlog implementation embeds it inside InnoDB, reducing commit latency by up to 50% and making the binlog crash-safe even with relaxed flush settings. To enable this feature, users must add a specific directive to their my.cnf file, but should not treat this as a production release due to potential replication issues until at least one point release is available. The update also brings new features in MariaDB 12.2.2, including expanded Oracle compatibility and improved JSON handling, making it a safer upgrade for those already on the 12.1 series.

Zen Browser 1.18.6b: Enhancing Performance and User Experience with Enhanced UI

Software 44118 Published 2026-02-13 13:09 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Zen Browser 1.18.6b moves overflowing extensions to a row below the address bar in single‑sidebar mode, clearing up a crowded UI. The program now stores its Linux configuration under ~/.config/zen and respects XDG standards while still supporting the legacy folder if it exists. Crash recovery has been tightened so unpinned tabs stay closed when “Restore previous session” is disabled, and bookmark syncing with Mozilla accounts finally functions reliably. A new --blank-window command‑line switch opens a clean window without any pinned tabs or restored spaces, which is handy for testing or starting fresh.

Install PHP 8.5.3/8.4.18 with Remi on RHEL, Fedora, Rocky, and Alma

Fedora Linux 9246 Published 2026-02-13 07:41 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Remi Collet has released new versions of PHP, including 8.5.3 and 8.4.18, for RHEL, Fedora, Rocky, and Alma based distributions. These packages are available from the remi-modular repository, which allows users to pull RPMs or run them as Software Collections alongside their system PHP. Using Remi's repo is beneficial because it provides access to more modern versions of PHP with new features like JIT improvements and newer extensions, whereas the default distribution PHP may be outdated. Installing Remi's PHP can solve compatibility issues that arise when a legacy application requires newer PHP features but the system PHP version is too old.

Rust 1.93.1: A New Point Release to Address Compiler Issues

Software 44118 Published 2026-02-13 07:19 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Rust 1.93.1 is a point release that undoes three regressions introduced in 1.93.0: it stops the compiler from crashing when rustfmt encounters new keywords, silences a Clippy false‑positive on implicit dereference field access, and fixes a file descriptor leak on the wasm32‑wasip2 target. Updating via rustup update stable fetches the patched binaries and can be verified with rustc --version. The ICE and noisy lint warnings have been known to break CI pipelines, while the wasm leak caused “too many open files” errors in long‑running services. In short, if rustfmt, Clippy, or wasm builds are part of the workflow, installing 1.93.1 is the only sensible move.

HAProxy, PostgreSQL, Nginx updates for Debian

Debian 10777 Published 2026-02-13 07:09 by Philipp Esselbach 0

Debian has released several security advisories to address vulnerabilities in various packages, including HAProxy, PostgreSQL, and Nginx. The advisory for HAProxy (DSA-6130-1) warns that an attacker can cause a denial-of-service attack by sending specially crafted data, and recommends upgrading to version 3.0.11-1+deb13u2. Meanwhile, multiple security issues were discovered in PostgreSQL (CVEs 2026-2003-2006), which may result in memory disclosure or code execution, and the advisory recommends updating to version 17.8-0+deb13u1 for the stable distribution or 15.16-0+deb12u1 for the oldstable distribution. Nginx has also been updated (DSA-6131-1) to fix a vulnerability that made it possible for an attacker to inject malicious code into upstream TLS servers, and users are recommended to upgrade to version 1.22.1-9+deb12u4 or 1.26.3-3+deb13u2.
