US TurboLinux Security Severely Out of Date (iDEFENSE Labs)
iDEFENSE Labs has issued a security
advisory for the US TurboLinux distribution.
The collective security weakness of the outstanding issues listed
below is staggering. The following is a list of the most serious
problems for which most other Linux vendors have provided updates on
their US sites. It represents the outstanding security problems
associated with the limited TurboLinux distributions and updates that
have been available on the US sites only.
LWN has pointed out in the past that Turbolinux has not been serious about security updates. With luck this advisory - or, perhaps, the UnitedLinux effort - will help get this distributor back on track. (Log in to post comments)
Who works for TurboLinux these days? Posted Jun 6, 2002 14:30 UTC (Thu) by smoogen (subscriber, #97) [Link] How many developers still work for TurboLinux these days... It is easy to find out who the developers for Debian, Red Hat, SuSE, Mandrake, and Slackware are.. but knowing who works on/for TurboLinux seems to be a big mystery.
