Sophisticated Malware Attack Targeting SSH and System D

This chapter explores a highly sophisticated malware attack involving embedding code into uncommon utilities like XZ to evade detection, targeting SSH and system D in a multifaceted manner to activate a trojan. The conversation delves into technical challenges of tying XZ to SSH on non-system D distros like FreeBSD, and the potential implications of a security breach. It also discusses the importance of maintaining lesser-known open source libraries and the interconnected nature of software dependencies.
