Linus Torvalds on the attempted XZ Utils hack.
During a keynote interview at Open Source Summit North America, the Linux founder discussed tabs vs. spaces, RISC-V, and the risks of security issues from maintainers raised by the recent exploit attempt:
Torvalds acknowledges that “Clearly it’s a wake-up call — there’s no question about that… I think we’re going to see a lot of work being put into some kind of trust model, where people see, ‘Oh, this is a new person’, or ‘This is a person that is acting differently from before.”
