fungithis might be useful for consideration to tighten the pypi upload token use in our zuul jobs: https://pypi.org/project/pypitoken-cli/16:11
fungiespecially once it grows support for date range constraints, then upload jobs could in theory get short-term authorization to upload a single package, and if that token somehow got leaked then the risk would be virtually nonexistent16:13
sean-k-mooneyneat it woudl be kind of like the hsort live build ssh keys we use. a short lived bearer token16:55
sean-k-mooneyfungi: but i assuem it still woudl need the credtial ot be able to create a token16:55
sean-k-mooneyi dont know how that is set up today but i assuem the upload job is defiend in a config project with a zuul secret for the pypi access16:56
fungiyes, the openstackci account has an unrestricted upload token stored as a zuul secret, which gets decrypted and supplied to the twine executable at upload time17:00
opendevreviewJay Faulkner proposed openstack/ossa master: OSSA-2026-013 Ironic: DoS via image CVE-2026-44919  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/ossa/+/98834419:40
JayFgouthamr: fungi: ^ RFR please19:40
fungithanks. looking19:42
JayFthanks, sending announcements19:53
fungiJayF: everything checks out (confirmed version ranges, tested urls, preview build in zuul looks great), so i went ahead and approved19:54
JayFgood stuff, I'll email the world19:54
fungii'm also on hand to approve the openstack-announce post19:54
JayFwell, once https://security.openstack.org/ossa/OSSA-2026-013.html is not a 404 :D 19:54
JayFfungi: I'm happy to have teh second set of eyes but I also hold those keys if you need to 404 yourself :D 19:55
funginah, i'm around working on opendev stuff anyway19:55
fungiit's funny-sad to be on both ends of the server vulnerability spectrum, handling upstream advisories and then also trying to keep opendev's systems secure with the pile of new advisories that are showing up in my inbox every morning19:56
fungibeing a sysadmin now has really just turned into prioritizing and reacting to a flood of security advisories19:57
fungithe post volume on the oss-security mailing list for this month is on track to be easily 5x what it was in may of last year19:58
JayFI've been watching the gentoo community get run haggard19:58
JayFespecially with the kernel vulns; kernel just doesn't provide clean backports19:58
JayFI think folks just assume everyone does the stuff that, quite frankly, we do -- and take it for granted when folks like distro packagers have to bridge the gap19:58
fungii sympathize with the kernel security team, they have an insurmountable task and are dealing with it the only way they really can19:59
JayFI mean, I do a little, but we have a pretty insurmountable task and are still trying to do it and apologetic when we drop the ball20:00
JayFMaybe they are just like, a few more years down the burnout path than we are? IDK20:01
fungii think the fundamental differences there (which i fully understand) are that they've decided they can't really say for sure whether something's a vulnerability in some environments because really any bug in the kernel could be if you're holding it wrong, they can't realistically gauge severity because everyone's environment is different, and they see little benefit to20:03
fungithemselves in the cve process so have come up with a separate async team to satisfy every random person's demand to have something they consider a vulnerability assigned one20:04
opendevreviewMerged openstack/ossa master: OSSA-2026-013 Ironic: DoS via image CVE-2026-44919  https://review.opendev.org/c/openstack/ossa/+/98834420:04
JayFI understand that in theory, but the practice is that like, day 3 after one of these zerodays it not existing in a stable branch is a pretty strong sign of lack of concern/professionalism. Maybe they should change the name of those kernels to LTU (Long-Term-Unmaintained) instead of LTS :) 20:05
JayFEither close the branches or properly support them or at least billboard it properly as not supported.20:06
fungitrue, i expect the kernel stable branch maintainers are happy to have more help if people don't think they're reacting fast enough20:06
fungipromote job for ossa-2026-013 missed the 20:05 vos release window but should be done in time for the 20:1020:07
JayFThat's sorta a cop out? I'd hope if OpenStack got to the point where we truly weren't maintaining a thing, we'd retire it. It's about promises made vs promises kept20:07
JayFI know in practice that's not how it works here, but I've been vocal about trying to make ^^ as true as possible20:07
fungiwell, i don't think they expected a week full of high-profile zero-day exploit announcements every day20:08
JayFhere is where I wish every chat system, including IRC, had the :lolsob: emoji I upload to every slack I use :) 20:09
fungiJayF: your advisory is live now20:10
JayFyep, and I hit send twice immediately20:10
JayFif you wanna review+approve the one to announce20:10
fungijust did20:11
gouthamrneat, missed the party as usual.. here for the after party20:35
fungii brought drinks, who's got chips?21:17
* gouthamr drops some H100s from his pocket21:18
* fungi breaks a tooth on one21:21
fungithey're good with salsa though21:21
gouthamr:’D21:23
