We look into the supply chain saga of the XZ Utils backdoor. It's a wild story of a carefully planned long con to add malicious code to a commonly used package that many SSH connections rely on. It hits themes from social engineering and abuse of trust to obscuring the changes and suppressing warnings. It also has a few lessons about software development, the social and economic dynamics of open source, and strategies for patching software. It's an exciting topic partially because so much other appsec is boring. And that boring stuff is important to get right first. We also talk about what parts of this that orgs should be worried about and what types of threats they should be prioritizing instead.

Topic 1: The “Antiwork” movements, The Great Resignation, and the stupidest movement in America You've seen the movement. But you may have missed the Reddit page. Did you miss the anti-work interview gone wrong? Check out  https://mashable.com/article/antiwork-subreddit-fox-news-interview  With some counterpoints on loyalty: https://www.businessinsider.com/companies-loyalty-employers-workers-employees-great-resignation-jobs-quits-2022-1  https://www.bloomberg.com/news/newsletters/2022-01-24/amazon-employees-are-burned-out-and-leaving-their-jobs Amazexodus   Topic 2: Apple Airtags Revisited: Bringing stalking to the masses. Airtags are certainly not the only tags out there. But, as with all things, Apple brought them to the masses. And that includes the masses of criminals who somehow take everything good and misuse it. Bad behavior includes following women from a bar after slipping an airtag in her bag, and tracking expensive cars so you can steal them more easily. https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/jan/20/apple-airtags-stalking-complaints-technology  Scary video watched over 3.9 million times on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@angel.edge95/video/7033117374861577477  Topic 3: It's time for a Robot Roundup! Where do we stand? Can (should) robots deliver booze? Do they have rights as pedestrians? Is outsourcing policing to them a good idea?

Watch the live stream: Watch on YouTube About the show Sponsored by us: Check out the courses over at Talk Python And Brian's book too! Michael #1: Box: Python dictionaries with advanced dot notation access Want to treat dictionaries like classes? Box. small_box = Box({'data': 2, 'count': 5}) small_box.data == small_box['data'] == getattr(small_box, 'data') == small_box.get('data') There are over a half dozen ways to customize your Box and make it work for you: Check out the new Box github wiki for more details and examples! Superset of dict See Types of Boxes as well Brian #2: Reading tracebacks in Python Trey Hunner “When Python encounters an error in your code, it will print out a traceback. Let's talk about how to use tracebacks to fix our code.” Brian's commentary Tracebacks can feel like brick wall of error telling you “you suck”. But they are really meant to help you, and do, once you know how to read them. Probably should be one of the earliest things we teach people new to coding. Like maybe: hello world tracebacks testing Anyway, back to Trey Start at the bottom. Read the last line first That will have the type of exception and an error message The two lines above that are The exact filename and line number where the exception occurs a copy of the line Those two lines are a stack frame. Keep going up and it's other stack frames for the callstack of how you got here. Trey walks through this with an example and shows how to solve an error at a high level stack frame using the traceback. Michael #3: Raspberry Pi: These two new devices just went live on the International Space Station The International Space Station has connected new Raspberry 4 Model B units to run experiments from 500 student programmer teams in Europe. From the education-focused European Astro Pi Challenge These are new space-hardened Raspberry Pi units, dubbed Astro Pi The AstroPi units are part of a project run by the European Space Agency (ESA) for the Earth-focused Mission Zero and Mission Space Lab. The former allows young Python programmers to take humidity readings on board ISS while the latter lets students run various scientific experiments on the space station using its sensors. Brian #4: Make Simple Mocks With SimpleNamespace Adam Johnson Who's crushing it recently, BTW, lots of recent blog posts SimpleNamespace is in the types standard library package. Works great as a test double, especially as a stub or fake object. “It's as simple as possible, with no faff around being callable, tracking usage, etc.” Example: >from types import SimpleNamespace >obj = SimpleNamespace(x=12, y=17, verbose=True) >obj namespace(x=12, y=17, verbose=True) >obj.x 12 >obj.verbose True unittest.mock.Mock also works, but has the annoying feature that, unless you pass in a spec, any attribute will be allowed. The SimpleNamespace solution doesn't allow any typos or other attributes. Example: >obj.vrebose Traceback (most recent call last): File "[HTML_REMOVED]", line 1, in [HTML_REMOVED] AttributeError: 'types.SimpleNamespace' object has no attribute 'vrebose'. Did you mean: 'verbose'? Michael #5: Extra, extra, exta Marak Squires, supply chain issues (NPM), and terrorism? [npm issues] css outlines! python 3.10.2 Python Shorts YouTube series #1 Parsing data with Pydantic #2 Counting the number of times items appear with collections.Counter Stream Deck + PyCharm video, github repo Brian #6: 3 Things You Might Not Know About Numbers in Python David Amos Most understated phrase I've read in a long time: “… there's a good chance that you've used a number in one of your programs” There's more to numbers than many people realize The 3 things numbers have methods integers have to_bytes(length=1, byteorder="big") int.from_bytes(b'x06xc1', byteorder="big") class method bit_length() and a bunch of others floats have is_integer(), as_integer_ratio() and a bunch more use variables or parentheses, though. 5.bit_length() doesn't work n=5; n.bit_length() and (5).bit_length() works numbers have hierarchy Every number in Python is an instance of the Number class. so isinstance(value, Number) should work for any number type Then there's 4 abstract types encompassing other types Complex: has type complex Real: has float Rational: has Fraction Integral: has int and bool Where's Decimal? It's not part of those abstract types, it directly inherits from Number Also, floats are weird Numbers are extensible You can derive from numeric classes, both abstract and concrete, and create your own However, to do this effectively, you gotta implement A LOT of dunder methods.

This special edition of The Killing IT Podcast was recorded before a live audience in a special presentation made possible by Cisco. If you missed the “Live” portion, register at killingitlive.com to listen to the bonus topic and receive announcements about the next Killing IT Live broadcast. -- -- -- Topic 1: After much fanfare, what's up with The Contract for the Web two years later? Sir Tim Berners-Lee's project - The Contract for the Web - promised to encourage governments to ensure access and privacy; corporations to encourage the best and discourage the worst in people; and citizens to be both creators and collaborators. Well, two years later, we don't think much has changed.

Evolved? One article on this topic asks whether "losing AI" would be a bad thing. The trend looks like China is way ahead of the west, except with regard to the moral use of artificial intelligence. Another article reports that some computer experts think ending human oversight is a very bad idea. What are the stakes of us losing our edge because we have ethics?

This topic ties together several of our ongoing discussions: AI, analytics, 5G, privacy, automation, simulation, environmental impact, tech impact on real life, and big business opportunities. But are we any smarter or better off? https://www.axios.com/smart-city-5g-data-privacy-0f8e6535-3cad-4ceb-86a2-dd4cefcd28a7.html  -- -- -- NOTE: You can catch the BONUS topic at https://www.killingitlive.com.  -- -- -- Sponsor Memo: Did you know Cisco helps Managed Services Providers directly?

Coté proposes that there’s three types of apps to pay attention to in enterprises. Or something like that. Also, he has a magical method for doing digital transformation: actually do it. We open up discussing the delightful adventure of doing analyst feature matrixes. Also, some brief discussion of Apple Watches in the impeachment trial.

It’s not “stupid,” it’s “antiquated.” Don’t make them think it is a big deal, or they’ll be afraid. Finding business case loopholes, or ignoring them. Can you base practices on loopholers?

Relevant to your interests VMware to acquire Bitnami (https://blog.bitnami.com/2019/05/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami.html): VMware’s desires (https://cloud.vmware.com/community/2019/05/15/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami/): “Upon close, Bitnami will enable our customers to easily deploy application packages on any cloud— public or hybrid—and in the most optimal format—virtual machine (VM), containers and Kubernetes helm charts. Further, Bitnami will be able to augment our existing efforts to deliver a curated marketplace to VMware customers that offers a rich set of applications and development environments in addition to infrastructure software.” Coté: so Bitnami is a thing that packages up software (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitnami) for you in (VMs?) containers and stuff, maybe with some Helm chart stuff for deploying to kubernetes? And a service that manages them in EC2? Jay@451 (https://clients.451research.com/reportaction/97114/Toc): “The acquisition will also help VMware support applications in various forms – including VMs, containers and Kubernetes Helm charts – across the different infrastructures. With Bitnami, VMware is also positioned to support ISVs and open source software components with Bitnami's catalog of curated, secured, certified components.” “VMware says it has acquired Bitnami for its multi-cloud competency and its Kubernetes expertise. VMware's acquisitions of CloudVelox, Heptio and CloudHealth have signaled its appetite for multi-cloud and Kubernetes.” The New Stack coverage: “Monocular, a service described by Bitnami as an open source search and discovery frontend for Helm Chart repositories.” https://thenewstack.io/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami-the-app-marketplace-platform-and-container-packager/ (https://thenewstack.io/vmware-to-acquire-bitnami-the-app-marketplace-platform-and-container-packager/) Holy high street, Sainsbury's!

Meanwhile, Gartner estimates that something like 2bn mobile devices (phones and tablets) were shipped in 2016. Gartner said shipments for “PCs, tablets and mobile phones” was 2.33bn in 2016 (if I read the press release right (https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2018-01-29-gartner-says-worldwide-device-shipments-will-increase-2-point-1-percent-in-2018) - something around those numbers). …if you run-rate the Chromebook Q4 (which is very kind since Christmas and corporate end-of-year spending is in Q4), you get 2016 shipments of 37.6m Chromebooks. So, out of all types of computing devices, Chromebooks are, like 37.6m out of 2.3bn, or ~2%, right? Clearly: LINUX DESKTOP VICTORY!

There’s all sorts of cloud stuff coming out of Oracle OpenWorld this week, so Brando and Coté talk about the mouth-feel of the news. Related, Amazon’s attempts to get off Oracle in Ohio, iCloud dropping out, and JEDI problems. Sponsored by SolarWinds This episode is sponsored by SolarWinds and this week SolarWinds wants you to know about their DevOps tool: AppOptics. Today, there is a divide between application and infrastructure health metrics—and the lack of unified dashboards, alerting, and management. With SolarWinds AppOptics you get a bird’s-eye view across all your resources on a single pane of glass—but can also drill quickly into the details. AppOptics includes built-in integrations for over 150 cloud-first applications, instant visibility into server and infrastructure performance, robust custom metrics dashboards, and automated APM request tracing. It’s SaaS-hosted, easy to manage, and budget friendly. Over 275,000 customers trust SolarWinds for the performance data they need, and AppOptics lets developers and operations get back to doing what they love: delighting users.

Ellison makes convincing pitch on automation and security for Oracle Cloud 2.0...but can’t resist trashing AWS (https://diginomica.com/2018/10/22/oracle-openworld-2018-ellison-makes-convincing-pitch-on-automation-and-security-for-oracle-cloud-2-0-but-cant-resist-trashing-aws/amp/) Kurt’s summary of Oracle cloud stuff (https://diginomica.com/2018/10/24/oracle-openworld-2018-making-the-cloud-friendly-for-enterprises-that-distrust-cloud/), pretty good. Coté: Look, I don’t really know their portfolio well. It’s hard to follow cause it doesn’t show up in all my feeds like, well, everything else. I’m intrigued by their emphasis on performance and (to a lesser extent) cost. They really hit up the performance characteristics - I’m not sure they mention ease of use or “outcomes” very much. The focus on security (https://diginomica.com/2018/10/23/oracle-openworld-2018-the-iaas-security-story/) is bizarre. Not because they shouldn’t have these things, but because these things are, well, what they should have. Cloud vendors don’t go around chest thumping about how secure they are in the same way that bakers don’t go around chest thumping about how their food is edible. Performance pitching has always been Oracle’s thing (as those of us who used to read printed trade rags know (https://www.google.fr/search?q=Oracle+vs.+sun+ads&tbm=isch&tbs=rimg:Cct5Jmsu4-qNIjgq2wpB3sF3r_1pjEdCkZ1fAi3Xg3Y7F6SdwqDwrrXU_18_1gYTP9ZrXyNCJH93AlHRe5Sgjj3AlJuNCoSCSrbCkHewXevEY5MaxXMYSooKhIJ-mMR0KRnV8ARGteHXdYot7EqEgmLdeDdjsXpJxEudUWno7A7hCoSCXCoPCutdT_1zEV2S9aFgvsWIKhIJ-BhM_11mtfI0RDKnCqovVg_1cqEgkIkf3cCUdF7hEHpSQHkysqZSoSCVKCOPcCUm40EW3myYJY_1IlP&tbo=u&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiPh4j4tp_eAhWDx4UKHXGCD0IQ9C96BAgBEBg&biw=1680&bih=917&dpr=2)). It’s sort of indicative of easier sales: it’s all numbers in a spreadsheet, then you sort a column and it tells you which vendor to pick. Then there’s Oracle commentary on Amazon of how hard it is to move off Oracle, just barely wrapping itself in the mantle of “because our stuff works better,” when at the core it seems like the worst case of lock-in rent-seeking: ‘Oracle Chairman and co-founder Larry Ellison (https://www.cnbc.com/larry-ellison/) isn't buying it. On the company's earnings call in December, Ellison said Amazon "is not moving off of Oracle." He reiterated his point at an August event (https://www.cnbc.com/2018/08/07/larry-ellison-says-it-will-be-really-hard-for-amazon-not-to-use-orac.html), saying, "I don't think they can do it. ‘They've had 10 years to get off Oracle, and they're still on Oracle," he said. "And it's not going to be easy for them to use their own technology. It's not going to be cost-effective. I mean, it's really, really hard.’ ☞ This kind of talk is why we all love to hear “Larry” (as everyone calls him) talk. He’s like the Steve Banon of the IT industry. They should start demo’ing at DevOpsDays and O’Reilly conferences more. Topic: when pitching to “the community” is irrelevant, or, “CIOs don’t go to your shit conferences, nerds.” Now, to put me further out on on the ledge of not knowing Oracle well, they sell a shit-ton of ERP software. They could likely have a larger, positive impact on global productivity by making that ERP software better, no matter how good it is. In the coverage I’ve read, there’s little talk about how they’re revolutionizing ERP stuff - how “machine learning” is improving that. Can it figure out how to file expenses for me? Optimize a supply chain (what ever the fuck that means), etc.? For example, Oracle has the potential to turn all that Watson talk intro practical, everyday applications of “AI.” IBM doesn’t have an ERP suite (they just have re-selling and packaging other people’s stuff injected with Watson thingies - again, whatever the fuck that means) - but Oracle does, plus the foot-print of people using it. I’m sure there’s plenty of money in databases…but their potential to improve their customer’s life is probably more in apps. Diginomica had some ERP coverage: Park Hotels going from analog to digital in accounting (https://diginomica.com/2018/10/24/park-hotels-and-resorts-makes-the-cloud-its-destination-of-choice/), and an excellent example from Red Cross work on improving outcomes (https://diginomica.com/2018/10/24/american-red-cross-equips-volunteers-with-mobile-app-for-disaster-relief/). And then back to our regularly scheduled price/performance (https://diginomica.com/2018/10/24/oracle-openworld-2018-wells-fargo-and-halliburton-reap-the-benefits-of-consolidating-on-oracle-exadata/) talk. Kurt has some good, dry lines: Burn-town: “[Oracle’s] Cloud 2.0 looks more like Cloud 0.5” compare to: “My project look like science fair, your project look like section 8.” (https://genius.com/8200581) Amazon's move off Oracle caused Prime Day outage in big Ohio warehouse, internal report says (https://www.cnbc.com/2018/10/23/amazon-move-off-oracle-caused-prime-day-outage-in-warehouse.html) “The outage, which lasted for hours on Prime Day, resulted in over 15,000 delayed packages and roughly $90,000 in wasted labor costs, according to the report. Those costs don't include all the lost hours spent by engineers troubleshooting and fixing the errors or any potential lost sales.” I assume Amazon has saved much more than that by moving off Oracle. Meanwhile, downtime effects us all: Apple iCloud down for (gasp!) hours (https://www.theverge.com/2018/10/23/18016512/apple-icloud-find-my-iphone-service-disruption-outage)!

The Foundation claims Cloud Foundry saves, on average, 10 weeks of development time and $100,000 per app development cycle. In fact, in its own survey, 92% of users cite cross-platform flexibility as important. If these panelists are gaining such benefits, it's easy to understand why they are so enamored with it.” 300 VMs per admin is the magic number (https://clients.451research.com/reportaction/95810/Toc?ref=Email%3Amis): “Private clouds owned and self-managed by enterprises can be cheaper than public cloud. The magic number to beat is about $25 per VM-month at 100% utilization. If the cost of the whole stack comes in under this number, then even with the addition of labor to manage that private cloud, it should be cheaper than public cloud. Obviously, with better labor efficiency, unit costs versus public cloud are lowered further, and the relative value of benefits increases. Enterprises unable to achieve a labor efficiency of 300 VMs per engineer are unlikely to beat public cloud on price. ”Partially managed clouds have good economics. If an enterprise is able to manage just the datacenter element of a private cloud at a ratio of at least 400 VMs per engineer, that cloud may cost less to operate than fully managed alternatives. We believe enterprises could easily beat this ratio.” Related (https://www.networkworld.com/article/3313319/private-cloud/private-cloud-spending-is-increasing-not-decreasing.html): “Of that, private cloud spending [on hardware] reached $4.6 billion, an increase of 28.2 percent year over year. That's a significant increase, but not as great as the jump in spending on public cloud IT infrastructure, which was $10.9 billion, a 58.9 percent year-over-year growth.” Conferences, et. al.

But that evades rather than answering the question: What does the person who buys the share from you expect to get from it? The value of a stock in the market is supposed to be equal to the present value of its future cash flows, and there’s nothing about the stock itself that promises you any cash flows. Or you might say that Snap’s directors and officers have a fiduciary duty to you to maximize the profits of the company and the value of your shares, but even if that were true—it’s pretty debatable (https://www.amazon.com/Shareholder-Value-Myth-Shareholders-Corporations/dp/1605098132)—it continues to avoid the question. If Snap made massive consistent profits for decades, it would still never have to give any money back to shareholders, and the shareholders would have no way to force it to. “I own a 1/1,258,171,112 share of a massive pile of cash,” you could say, but you could never spend it.’ Improving intranet search, always a problem: Box buys AI thing (https://www.axios.com/box-acquires-file-search-tool-butterai-7d7fdd64-a633-4dfa-ae38-5b2d3186b448.html): “a startup whose software lets users search within files across multiple work applications.
