In 2023, we launched a series in which we have community members answer common questions we're seeing from the community. Last year we have started building another Q&A series - this time with the AlmaLinux OS Foundation board members! Our goal with this new board member Q&A series is to better introduce our board to the broader community. |
|||
|
|||
For our latest board member Q&A video, [Noam Alum](https://www.linkedin.com/in/noam-alum/?originalSubdomain=il) interviewed me, benny Vasquez. We talked about how I got started with Linux, my hopes for AlmaLinux, and some other fun things. Learn a bit more about me and my background by watching the video, or check out the transcript below! |

The AlmaLinux OS Foundation's board is community elected, by members of the AlmaLinux OS Foundation. If you use AlmaLinux, contribute to AlmaLinux, or support AlmaLinux in some way, we encourage you to [join the foundation](/members/). Individual membership is free, because you shouldn't have to pay to have a voice in the future of something you care about. |
|||

## Transcript |

Noam Alum: Hey everyone. I'm Noam Alum, a member of the AlmaLinux community. I'm here with benny from the AlmaLinux Foundation. And we are going to introduce you a bit more to the AlmaLinux community. How are you doing today, benny? |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: I'm good. Thanks, Noam. I am very excited to be here. |
|||
|
|||
Noam Alum: Great. Let's jump right into it. What got you into open source in general and Linux specifically? |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: So my first Linux distribution was CentOS. I guess technically, it was Ubuntu when I checked my email on my boyfriend's computer once. But when I got into web hosting, the primary OS that we used was CentOS, so that was my first. And it has had a very special place in my heart ever since then. Later on, when I started to learn about open source, I loved the community nature of open source in general, I loved the idea that just a bunch of people that care about something could work together on it and, like, allow your passion to drive something cool. And eventually that led me to AlmaLinux. |
|||
|
|||
Noam Alum: And that's why I'm talking to you today. |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: Yeah! |
|||
|
|||
Noam Alum: I want to ask you, what are the most exciting things to you about AlmaLinux? And where do you see it in the next five years? |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: I think the most exciting thing that we're working on for me is the foundation of what we're going to build on. I think CentOS was around for 20 years, like the historic CentOS was around for 20 years, and the project still exists. And for me, setting up a foundation that will allow this project to continue to thrive and continue to exist, outlast anybody who's involved in it right now, their interest, their abilities, their passion for it. I really want us to continue to be around as long as we can. So that's what's exciting for me. It's maybe not sexy, but it is the most important thing, from my perspective, to make sure that we're setting up a strong foundation. |
|||
|
|||
Noam Alum: Yeah. That's nice. You mentioned web hosting, and that's where I came to know you. |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: Yeah. |
|||
|
|||
Noam Alum: Most people won't know your history. And I thought maybe you could expand a little bit. |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: Yeah, absolutely, I forgot. Most people don't really know my background. So, I got started in tech in high school. I was helping my dad. He was an IT director at a really small school district, about 20 miles from here. And we would, over the summer, we would do complete rebuilds of all of the computer labs. So I got really familiar with all of that stuff, and really started to understand computing there. But after high school, I went to a local community college and tried a bunch of different majors, none of which were computers. I did archeology, biology, and a ton of things that none of which really stuck for me. None of them seemed to fit, but they were all interesting. And then, after failing out of college, I did some contract work that actually pulled on the knowledge that I had built with my dad, working with my dad and then started at a web hosting company called Liquid Web here in Michigan. I was employee number 33. I was the first girl. It was a very small company. But my A.D.D. ended up being the perfect way for me to enter that company, because there was a position that we called monitoring where you just stared at a screen that was full of alerts all day, and worked to resolve those. Me and my Nagios screen were best friends. And then I got to build the monitoring team and the infrastructure that we used and started to really understand a little bit more about open source there, and then got involved in the marketing side of things there, because I could speak tech and knew people. And I understood how to interact with people. And I started to understand the community a lot more there. And then I went to cPanel and worked there doing tech support and then doing community engagement and community building there. And what was really remarkable about that spot was that cPanel really cared about making sure they were giving back to the open source projects that they relied on. So I got to learn a lot more about what responsible open source consumption was. And, got to meet a bunch of people that were in open source and then moved to Chef to try to help them bounce back from some problems that they were having in their community with their engagements. And I then briefly worked at Microsoft on the open source ecosystem team, which really was my first, like, head first, deep into open source, outside of AlmaLinux. I had already joined the board, and so I was already active in the project, but that was a completely new approach to open source for me, because what Microsoft does is, employs people to work at open source projects pretty regularly. And for me, it was the OpenSSF. So I got to work at the Linux Foundation, but got paid by Microsoft, and that was fantastic. Then, when I got laid off from Microsoft last year, it was the perfect time for me to do AlmaLinux, full time, because there were a bunch of changes at Red Hat that impacted us. And so I got sponsored to do that, and I have been doing that for just over a year now, about fourteen months, and it's been awesome. |
|||
|
|||
Noam Alum: That's such an amazing journey. I hope mine would be somewhat like yours. And like it seems like you wouldn't know what would be, your life as an adult. And that brings for me, the question - what was your dream job was like as a kid? |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: I've always liked fast things and adrenaline highs. And when I was a kid, I thought I wanted to be a fighter jet pilot. And then I realized that that would require military interaction. That's not really for me. That's not something that I'm good at. So then, I thought maybe I would use my ability to argue and reason to be a lawyer and help people specifically. But by the time I was an adult, none of those were really a fit for me. And all I knew was that I wanted to be able to help people and do something with technology. And honestly, I had no idea where that was going to take me. But yeah. That's the dream. |
|||
|
|||
Noam Alum: Well, thanks for joining me today. And thanks for letting the community know you a bit more. |
|||
|
|||
benny Vasquez: Thank you. Thank you, Noam! |

|||
|
|||
Hello everyone! We’ve got some updates about the ELevate Project to share with you today :) |
|||
|
|||
### New Upgrade Path Available |
|||
|
|||
We are excited to announce that the upgrade path from AlmaLinux OS 9 to AlmaLinux 10.0 beta is now available in ELevate NG. |
|||
|
|||
**Please note: This upgrade is for testing purposes only and is not intended for production environments.** |
|||
|
|||
The AlmaLinux 9 to AlmaLinux 10 beta upgrade is a crucial part of our ongoing preparations for the version 10.0 stable release, expected in Q2. Early testing allows us to identify and address potential issues and before the stable release ensuring the stable upgrade for users. |
|||
|
|||
We'd love the community to help us try and test this new upgrade path and share their experiences. Your input will directly contribute to the quality and development of the final release. |
|||
|
|||
Detailed instructions for testing this migration can be found [here](https://wiki.almalinux.org/elevate/ELevate-NG-testing-guide.html#prepare-the-system-for-upgrade-to-almalinux-10). |
|||
|
|||
Please, report any bugs you may see to the [ELevate leapp repository](https://github.com/AlmaLinux/leapp-repository). |
|||
|
|||
**"Will I be able to use ELevate to upgrade from 10 beta to 10 stable when it's released?"** |
|||
|
|||
When 10 stable is released, ELevate will support upgrades from version 9 to 10 stable. However, ELevate will not support upgrades from 10 beta to 10 stable. You can update systems running 10 beta using the regular update process with detailed instructions that will be provided in the release notes. |
|||
|
|||
### General Updates and Changelog |
|||
|
|||
We have made some adjustments to our supported distributions. As of October 23, 2024, [EuroLinux is no longer being distributed](https://docs.euro-linux.com/), and as a result the ELevate Project will no longer support upgrading to EuroLinux. This decision allows us to focus our resources on maintaining actively supported distributions. |
|||
|
|||
Additionally, we have updated the project to include the latest features, fixes, and updates. See the [changelog](https://wiki.almalinux.org/elevate/Changelog.html) to stay in the loop. |
|||
|
|||
### Contribute and Get Help |
|||
|
|||
We thank you for your continued support and contributions to the ELevate Project and AlmaLinux OS. |
|||
|
|||
Have feedback, questions, or just want to join the discussion? Join us in the ~migration channel on the [AlmaLinux Community Chat](https://chat.almalinux.org/almalinux/channels/migration). |

|||
--- |
|||
Security researchers at Google, namely Pedro Gallegos, Simon Scannell, and Jasiel Spelman, identified vulnerabilities in both the rsync server and client. These vulnerabilities range from extremely concerning to just annoying, and are at different stages of being patched. This blog post will be updated as patches are released by us. |
|||
|
|||
## The Announcement |
|||
The server vulnerabilities ([CVE-2024-12084](https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-12084) and [CVE-2024-12085](https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-12085)) can lead to remote code execution (RCE). On the client side, vulnerabilities allow a malicious server to read arbitrary files ([CVE-2024-12086](https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-12086)), create unsafe symlinks ([CVE-2024-12087](https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-12087)), and, under certain conditions, overwrite arbitrary files ([CVE-2024-12088](https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-12088)). Additionally, during the coordinated response to these issues, Aleksei Gorban reported a sixth vulnerability ([CVE-2024-12747](https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/CVE-2024-12747)) related to how the rsync server manages symlinks. |
|||
|
|||
These vulnerabilities were responsibly disclosed to us through the CERT/CC Vulnerability Notes Database, ahead of the [public disclosure](https://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/952657) on January 14, 2025. |
|||
|
|||
# Impact and Mitigation: |
|||
|
|||
## AlmaLinux OS 8 & AlmaLinux OS 9 |
|||
AlmaLinux 8 and AlmaLinux 9 are vulnerable only to 5 of the 6 CVEs (CVE-2024-12085, CVE-2024-12086, CVE-2024-12087, CVE-2024-12088, and CVE-2024-12747). Red Hat has released patches addressing only CVE-2024-12085. That was promptly released for [AlmaLinux 8](https://errata.almalinux.org/8/ALSA-2025-0325.html) and [AlmaLinux 9](https://errata.almalinux.org/9/ALSA-2025-0324.html) as part of our normal patch and release workflow. |
|||
|
|||
We have also prepared packages with patches for the remaining vulnerabilities from upstream Rsync, but ALESCo is still discussing releasing those patches if Red Hat does not patch them. If these patches are important to you and your rsync use-cases please [let ALESCo know in the ALESCo room on the AlmaLinux community chat](https://chat.almalinux.org/almalinux/channels/alesco)! |

## AlmaLinx rsync Backport Package |
|||
|
|||
AlmaLinux maintains an optional Rsync package that is primarily used by AlmaLinux Mirror maintainers to allow for additional functionality and performance enhancements and is [suggested for our mirrors](https://lists.almalinux.org/hyperkitty/list/mirror-announce@lists.almalinux.org/thread/6QKFWQZV2XHDIZ4O4DUOHFFEWLJP47V3/). |
|||
|
|||
On January 14 we released updates for these backported rsync RPMs. rsync from this backport repo was at version 3.3.0, and we updated the repo to 3.4.0 and subsequently 3.4.1, as the updates were released upstream. |

In just one week we'll be kicking off our time in Brussels as we join both [CentOS Connect](https://connect.centos.org/) and [FOSDEM](https://fosdem.org/) for this year's events, and we are so excited. It always feels special for us this year, because this is the time of year that we celebrate the 4-year anniversary of our very first beta version release. |
|||
|
|||
If you are in the area already or were already planning to be at FOSDEM, we'd love to say hi! |
|||
|
|||
## At CentOS Connect - Meetup and a talk! |
|||
|
|||
At Connect, other than enjoying connecting with other parts of our fellow CentOS Stream community, we're also contributing to the content twice: |
|||
|
|||
### ELevate meetup |
|||
|
|||
9 to 10:45 local time on Thursday, January 30, we'll be hosting a [meetup around Project ELevate](https://cfp.fedoraproject.org/centos-connect-2025/talk/TKT8TH/) - the tool that opens up in-place migrations between major versions across the enterprise Linux ecosystem. Upgrading between major versions of CentOS Linux was always a pain, and required tons of manual labor. |
|||
|
|||
> Project ELevate is an open source upgrade tool that allows users to move between major versions of many of the most popular RHEL-equivalent operating systems without the tedium of moving content. Attendees will learn more about the project as well as how it can be used and improved. |
|||
|
|||
### AlmaLinux: the special derivative |
|||
|
|||
From 5 to 5:30 p.m. on Thursday Andrew will present, ["AlmaLinux: the special derivative"](https://cfp.fedoraproject.org/centos-connect-2025/talk/XTLCAX/). His talk will take everyone through the big differences that AlmaLinux brings to the enterprise linux world. |
|||
|
|||
> On the dates of CentOS Connect 2025, we get to celebrate exactly 4 years since the release of the very first beta version of AlmaLinux. While being RHEL (and later CentOS Stream) derivative AlmaLinux still does a lot of things differently both on the distribution and tooling sides. Our build system and mirror service are just the tip of the iceberg. In my talk I'd like to focus on more things we do differently, like: |
|||
- How we build images |
|||
- How we produce errata |
|||
- How we do OpenSCAP profiles and OVAL data |
|||
- How we support additional hardware and older CPUs |
|||
- How we extend virtualization support |
|||
|
|||
> ... and many more. |
|||
> This can be useful for users and developers to look at familiar features and processes from a new angle. |
|||
|
|||
|
|||
## At FOSDEM - booth and Distros room and ANOTHER talk! |
|||
|
|||
At FOSDEM we'll be around to connect with folks at our booth on Saturday in building K, handing out some pens and stickers and saying hi to our friends. |
|||
|
|||
Sunday, we'll be helping out in the [Distributions Dev Room](https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/track/distributions/), as we go through the incredible content that's laid out for the day there (take a look if you haven't yet). |
|||
|
|||
Andrew is again scheduled to give an AlmaLinux talk (from 12-12:30 p.m. local time): [“From Manul to Kitten: 4 years of AlmaLinux Development Evolution.”](https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/track/distributions/) |
|||
|
|||
In this one Andrew will share our experience in developing AlmaLinux and the related services, while also outlining how we made certain decisions depending on emerging needs and external factors in order to continue to deliver and improve a high-quality distribution. |
|||
|
|||
## Other 2025 Events |
