The Ubuntu 25.10 transition to using some Rust system utilities continues proving quite rocky. Beyond some early performance issues with Rust Coreutils, breakage for some executables, and broken unattended upgrades due to a Rust Coreutils bug, it’s also sudo-rs now causing Ubuntu developers some headaches. There are two moderate security issues affecting sudo-rs, the Rust version of sudo being used by Ubuntu 25.10.

    Which batch of you turds was in here all up in my stuff last week when I said Rust projects have security vulnerabilities all the time just as any other and you all were arguing like “nuh-uh cuz Rust”?

    Step up.

      Weren’t you the dude posting completely irrelevant articles? As I said before, no one reasonable thinks Rust programs won’t have bugs. Rust helps prevent a specific class of vulnerabilities. The rest is, as per usual, up to the programmer to avoid.

      EDIT: I browsed your comments to verify. You were indeed the person posting the irrelevant articles about malware written in Rust being used to exploit other programs and using it to claim that software written in Rust was vulnerable.

        No…but you were the one trying to twist this exact thing out of context to meet your foolish argument. Same as right now 🤣

        Thanks for mentioning that. Block

          So fucking childish lol. Could have just used a real article about a Rust vuln like this one but whatever.

          At this point I feel like anti-Rust people are more cult-like than any pro-Rust people I’ve met.
