Spent the last several days deleting most old posts from my mothballed mastodon.social account, spurred by the . Was not fun: had to disable the account redirect to my current account, then manually delete affected posts, rate-limited to 30 at a time. (And this is on an account that had been auto-deleting most posts anyway; would have been a nightmare otherwise.)

Turns out not just the Google Pixel phones were affected by the bug, where cropped screenshots could be recovered to almost-fullscreen versions.

Windows(!) was affected too. Win 11 seems to have a fix now, Win 10 not yet.

Unpatched bug can be exploited with modified versions of the scripts.

Earlier this week, programmer and "accidental security researcher" Simon Aarons disclosed a bug in 's Markup screenshot editing tool for its Pixel phones. Dubbed , the bug allows content you've cropped out of your Android screenshot to be partially recovered, which can be a problem if you've cropped out sensitive information.

@bsmaalders @cks writing a temp file and renaming it also avoids the failure-to-truncate issues found in screenshot cropping tools recently (), but as some folks at work recently discovered, you need to be sure to fsync() before the rename, or a failure at the wrong moment can leave you with a zero-length file instead of the old one as the directory metadata can get written before the file contents data on ZFS.

Käsittämätön moka, sekä Googlelta että Microsoftilta.

Sekä Googlen Pixel -puhelimista että Windows 11 on löytynyt ongelma, jossa niiden oletusarvoiset kuvienkäsittelyyn tarkoitetut sovellukset jättävät alkuperäisen kuvan mukaan muokatun kuvan tiedostoon.

Eli jos rajaat tai suttaat vaikkapa ruutukaappauksesta arkaluonteisia asioita ja lähetät kuvan eteenpäin, tiedostosta löytyy myös sensuroimaton kuva.
