Comment by grommz | original | Arbitrary code execution in QubesOS via copy-to-VM error reporting backchannel
[−]grommz · 2026-08-30 Sun 13:18 UTC · link
The founder Joanna Rutkowska left QubesOS in 2018. All the code involved in this bug was committed by her successor Marek Marczykowski-Górecki.

Joanna seems to be a genuine good guy, she once wrote a paper titled "Intel x86 considered harmful". That's why Huawei and the Chinese government aren't even trying any more to make western CPU architectures secure, it's a hopeless cause.
