A while ago I wrote about Helping the WayBack ArchiveTeam team: running their Warrior virtual appliance on ESXi.
Since it was scheduled before my cancer treatment started and got posted when still recovering from it, I missed that version 3.2 of the [Wayback] ArchiveTeam Warrior appliance appeared in the [Wayback] Releases · ArchiveTeam/Ubuntu-Warrior at [Wayback] Release v3.2 · ArchiveTeam/Ubuntu-Warrior. You can download it form these places:
These two sites have not yet been updated, so they contain the older versions:
The source code now has been moved three times:

The [WayBack] Archiveteam helps the WayBack machine with feeding new content.
You can help that team by running one or more “warrior” virtual machine instances. The VM is distributed as a virtual appliance in an ova file according to the Open Virtualization Format.
That format sounds more generic than it actually is, so the (at the time of writing) archiveteam-warrior-v3-20171013.ova file at [WayBack] Index of /downloads/warrior3/ was created for VirtualBox.X
This meant running it on VMware ESXi or VMware vSphere takes a few steps for patching it, then uploading it to your VMware host.
Since I might want to run the appliance on multiple places or multiple instances, I wanted to have a ready-to-go solution, I created a git repository with both the patch instructions and the update at [WayBack] wiert.me / public / ova / archiveteam-warrior-v3-20171013.ESXi · GitLab.

From [WayBack] Kubernetes’ first major security hole discovered | ZDNet in reverse order:
Fortunately, there is a fix, but some of you aren’t going to like it. You must upgrade Kubernetes. Now. Specifically, there are patched version of Kubernetes [WayBack] v1.10.11, [WayBack] v1.11.5, [WayBack] v1.12.3, and [WayBack] v1.13.0-rc.1.
…
[WayBack] Red Hat said, “The privilege escalation flaw makes it possible for any user to gain full administrator privileges on any compute node being run in a Kubernetes pod. [WayBack] This is a big deal. Not only can this actor steal sensitive data or inject malicious code, but they can also bring down production applications and services from within an organization’s firewall.”
…
And the bug, [WayBack] CVE-2018-1002105, aka the Kubernetes privilege escalation flaw, is a doozy. It’s a [WayBack] CVSS 9.8 critical security hole.

An important question for many people, so if you want to know more or get started: [WayBack] Scott Hanselman on Twitter: “Why should I care about Kubernetes, Docker, and Container Orchestration?” followed by:
Yes, AKS is Azure Container Services (go figure!).
Notes
- For burning, Scott recommends [WayBack] Etcher: Burn images to SD cards & USB drives, safely and easily (which is now also available as experimental [WayBack] Etcher CLI), I tended to use a script like below since I’m a command-line person, but since Etcher does write and verify in one run, I’m considering switching:
- find where the SD card is mounted on your Mac:
diskutil list
sudo su -
- execute this from the directory where you downloaded filling in
targetDevice with the value from diskutil list
targetDevice="disk9"
imageName="2017-11-29-raspbian-stretch-lite"
unzip -o ${imageName}.zip
diskutil umount "/dev/${targetDevice}s1"; \
dd bs=1m of="/dev/r${targetDevice}" if=${imageName}; \
sync; \
diskutil list; \
diskutil eject "/dev/${targetDevice}"

This is what DevOps is all about: [WayBack] jessie frazelle on Twitter: “Hire the people who will automate themselves out of a job, then just keep giving them jobs.”
I had seen the tweet before, but forgot to save it. Jonas Bandi reminded me of it at [WayBack] Weekend Reader: End of Year Edition – reality-loop.
Jessie is doing great work. For instance, she developed and published contained.af, and nobody captured the flag yet: [WayBack] jessie frazelle on Twitter: «A year ago I made contained.af and it’s launched over 128,000 containers & no one has retrieved the flag».
The game runs in a container, gives you console access and has a bunch of questions. Still need to dig deeper in it, as it is a fascinating set-up. If you like to try it:
Wishing you a year where nobody captures your flags (:
