New Threats in Open Source: Worms, AI-Driven Malware, and Trust Abuse

Open source security just hit a new level: self-spreading worms, AI-run attacks, and registry abuse at a massive scale. Shai-Hulud, GlassWorm, and AI-orchestrated intrusions show how fast threats now move, and how easily one stolen token can infect entire ecosystems. The supply chain has changed. Our defenses must too.

Key Oracle performance metrics

Oracle performance issues rarely come from a single metric. This guide breaks down the most important Oracle performance indicators across instance health, memory, storage, waits, SQL, and availability, and shows how to use them together to detect bottlenecks early and prevent downtime.

Microk8s vs K3s

Kubernetes k3s MicroK8s Rancher k3d

To truly master Kubernetes, you need a safe sandbox, and running a lightweight distribution is the perfect solution for your local development workflow. These smaller K8s flavors provide a full-featured, yet constrained, environment that is easy on system resources. Both MicroK8s (maintained by Canonical) and k3s (from Rancher) are popular, production-ready options that deliver the core K8s experience with minimal operational burden, low storage needs, and simple networking setups.

These two platforms are fantastic for learning, experimentation, rapid testing, and skill development. If you don't know which one to choose, this post will give you the quick overview you need to decide.

Phishing for AWS Credentials via the New 'aws login' Flow

AWS rolled out a newaws loginCLI command using OAuth 2.0 with PKCE. It grabs short-lived credentials, finally pushing out those dusty long-lived access keys. But here’s the hitch:The remote login flow opens up a phishing gap. Since the CLI session and browser session aren’t bound, attackers could sp.. read more

14x Faster Faceted Search in PostgreSQL with ParadeDB
AWX is the open source, community supported upstream project for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform, formerly known as Ansible Tower. It gives teams a web based interface, a full REST API, and a distributed task engine on top of Ansible, turning command line playbook runs into a managed, auditable automation service.

The project began at AnsibleWorks as the commercial Ansible Tower product, and after Red Hat acquired Ansible, it open sourced the codebase as AWX in September 2017, positioning it as the development ground where new features land before they are hardened into the supported Automation Platform controller. With AWX, you organize automation around projects (synced from Git or other source control), inventories (static or dynamically pulled from cloud providers), credentials (stored encrypted and injected at runtime), and job templates that tie a playbook to its inventory and credentials. On top of that, it adds role based access control, a visual dashboard, job scheduling, workflow chaining, webhooks, and real time job output, so multiple teams can run, track, and delegate automation without sharing SSH keys or sitting at a terminal.

Modern AWX runs on Kubernetes or OpenShift through the AWX Operator, which manages installation, upgrades, and scaling declaratively, reflecting its shift from a single host application to a cloud native, container based platform. Because it is the upstream of a paid product, AWX moves fast and ships frequently, which makes it ideal for labs, learning, and self managed deployments, though teams needing formal support and long term stability typically run the downstream Automation Platform instead.
