Speck algorithm NSA backdoored Linux Kernel 4.17

yes

SELinux, SystemD, Gnome, Fedora - Linux is already pwned by the NSA.

You need a system without SPECK, SELinux, SystemD, Gnome, or Fedora. If you use anything on that list then you might as well send all your passwords right to big brother NSA.

You need a system with the alternatives, AppArmor, SysVinit, KDE or other QT-based DE (GTK-free), and hopefully all based on Arch/Debian/BSD.

Speck confirmed backdoored Jow Forumsentlemen.

I'm not gonna let those CIA niggers spy on me. Time to install a secure operating system like Windows® 10 Home Edition©

>What’s interesting is that the Speck module has defaulted as off from kernel.org but Arch Linux has it turned on by default. Don’t ask me why.
Fucking Arch man.

Arch devs suck Systemd cock. So It's not surprising that Arch devs have (((NSA))) backdoor embedded in their assholes.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

arch linux compromised confirmed

g-neets on suicide watch lmao

You surly meant Linux, the kernel.

All the more reason to use linux-libre kernel

you have to enable it, faggot

unless you unironically use arch ;^)

no login, password or encryption is safe since the first Qbit came on line

Who cares? You can just use a different algorithm.

HAHAHAHSHHSHSHSHSGDH

>he still writes init scripts

Including backdoored crypto looks like the kernel suggests it is good to use
Arch maintainers enable pretty much everything so with enough tweaking you can use everything without having to recompile anything

OP even fucking posted the source code. Where is the backdoor?
git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=da7a0ab5b4babbe5d7a46f852582be06a00a28f0

I'll wait for it to get patched in linux 4.18/5.0

Wincucks will be backdoored for eternity

When I compiled a custom ekrnel i looked at the config and appenrelty they even fucking enabled some module that is only relevant for some embedded refrigrator system or something. I think ill switch from this fucking joke distro

I mean think about it, WHO THE FUCK RUNS ARCH LINUX ON A REFRIGERTOR? LMAO

is this real?

>let's use an encryption method created by the NSA
This won't end well. Get ready for systemd (2), and I bet every single mainline OS will enable this out of the box too. Time to move to BSD, plan9, or *gulp*, Haiku... Fuck...

And while you're at it, avoid SHA hashes. That's an NSA project. And AES too. The NSA likes it so it must be bad!!

There's no way that's a 32yr old man.

Except that this is a cryptographic algorithm and not just a access control system. Never trust the NSA when it comes to cryptography. Remember DUAL_EC_DRBG.

are you posting from the past?

That's not how backdooring an algorithm works, dicktard. People are concerned that since the NSA made it, they might also have an easy way to solve it. That's not something we can glean from the source code.

>What’s interesting is that the Speck module has defaulted as off from kernel.org but Arch Linux has it turned on by default.
Arch Linux confirmed as worst Linux.

SELinux is an NSA creation. It's been that way since day one.

NSA won't even provide info on why it is safe to the crypto standards review board. After years on them giving the board the run around and ignoring concerns in the spec, THE NSA'S REQUEST WAS DECLINED BECAUSE IT IS LIKELY BACKDOORED AND INSECURE. It is so bad that a member of the board tried to keep speck from going into Linux but failed of course. Do NOT use speck. It IS broken by design. NSA created it for IOT devices. They want to spy everywhere.

different user here, how do i know if i'm using speck?

Check your kernel version.

You'd know if you're using it since it's not being used yet. Once it becomes more popular, partially IoT, then worry. Speck is requires less CPU to run so it is intended for IoT.

>4.15.0-29-generic
do i worry>?

You don't have to worry, what distro are you using?

You expect me to believe the NSA cares more about your porn habits than protecting classified documents and securing wartime communications? I mean, the US military invented onion routing, which has been used to successfully buy and sell illicit goods for years now. And if you're truly skeptical, the fucking kernel is open source, just compile without speck. Holy fuck Jow Forums, your Jow Forumstard is really showing

>accusing Jow Forums of being Jow Forums because concerns about the botnet
fuck off newfag

anything that isnt consumerfaggotry is Jow Forums

>covering your camera
Why. I'm not asking.

System encryption usually uses AES, and *fish or Serpent for the freetards, GnuPG is SHA or AES... idk wtf you think a crypto algorithm is but it's not a magic hand wave that uploads all your data to the goberment

the turtle doesn't like it

>it's not a magic hand wave that uploads all your data to the goberment
so you trust the NSA (out of everyone) not to have an incentive to punch holes on this linux kernel?

Also, I call this thread Jow Forumsish because it's irrational conspiracy fear mongering and apparently some of you are ready and willing to jump to "loonix is compromised speckgate 2018", which is classic Jow Forumsishness. If you don't like speck don't fucking encrypt your shit with it.

You can't punch holes in something that you can verify and compile yourself. That's what makes open source neat.

>conspiracy fear mongering nuts i'll tell ya
you sound like that boomer who works for the nsa

inspirational tbhonky

>it's not a magic hand wave that uploads all your data
see weak constants = trivially breakable "encryption"
if you use weak crypto, you might as well be using rot13, stop stawmanning real concerns
>If you don't like speck don't
defaults matter, read up on soft paternalism
leaving it in by default imbues it with a false aura of security respectability and suckers in clueless users or IOT manufactures to use it.
also consider tragedy of the commons. widespread usage means it will have to traverse your networks and interact with your devices and data, whether or not you like or choose it yourself.
(stallman doesnt use facebook, bit hes plastered all over it because of people who do: the shadow profile thing)

You likely can prove it has a mathematical backdoor. Often you can get inside the encryption loop to catch each symmetric encryption iteration.

See

Men are better than women at everything, including being women.

fuck Speck/Simon but there's nothing wrong with SELinux

It would be one thing if Arch had baked it in, but really, it's just something you can disable and is included in case someone wants it.

>4 years of hrt
>and a shit load of plastic surgery

Even if you are >=4.17, the CONFIG sets Speck as "Say N if unsure" so I doub't most distros would have it in thw kernels they ship. Not only that but you can blacklist the speck module if it comes compiled with your kernel. And even if you don't do that, unless you manually set your partitions to be encrypted with it, it's not being used.

This thread is bs.

You provide no evidence that it is "trivially breakable" encryption. It does make some sacrifices for speed, which is to be expected, but again you're spewing bullshit and raising the alarm when there's no clear threat.
I don't trust the NSA, but I trust that the NSA doesn't trust China, Russia, Brazil, India, etc.

This. Anyone who says otherwise literally works for the NSA.
/thread
Hahahahahaha

Of course it isn't

HELLO NSA

This
Adding it in suggests it's fine to use, that's the problem
Like this guy said
How are they monitoring?

This is huge news.
Why is this even allowed to happen?

>1. Can you prove the SPECK cipher is backdoored? I doubt you can.
YOU SEE YOU CANT FIND IT SO ITS NOT THERE

>If Speck algorithm was rejected by ISO, then how come it landed in Linux Kernel 4.17?
>The quick answer is: Google.
>Google engineer Eric Biggers requested the inclusion of Speck in Kernel 4.17 because Google is going to provide Speck as an option for dm-crypt and fscrypt on Android.
My poor sides..... They left me forever...

Arch fags lmao
enjoy your pizza possession and a life in prison

They also sold uranium to North Korea during the Clinton administration. It's amazing leftists pick on Trump for having some relations with some Russians when Podesta, one of the biggest people in the Clinton group, has stocks in Russian uranium companies, which means his cozy with the Russian military

>dat pic

I wasn't sure the algorithm is compromised but if Google requests its inclusion in the kernel, it must be

Choose your algorithms wisely

Not a dude otherwise I'm gay af
