A security issue in Omarchy’s default Docker configuration meant that essentially every program running in the user’s desktop session could escalate to root without a password, sudo, or a privilege prompt. If you use Omarchy, the most important takeaway is simple: update to 4.0.1. I reported this issue privately through the project’s responsible-disclosure process. The underlying configuration has since been patched, so I’m publishing the details now to explain what the issue is and let users know to update their systems.

      I explained myself badly and I think that comment reads as more argumentative than I intended.

      I meant to say that the countercultural world of the early internet created a lot of the deeply problematic culture of the current moment as well as having a bunch of right-on goodness. The seeds of the bad shit were also there in amongst everything that was good.
