FAQ on the xz-utils backdoor (CVE-2024-3094)

This is a living document. Everything in this document is made in good faith of being accurate, but like I just said; we don't yet know everything about what's going on.

Background

On March 29th, 2024, a backdoor was discovered in xz-utils, a suite of software that

Intro

Out of the box, my SMB performance on macOS 12.3.1 would top out at around 20MB/s in short ~5 second bursts, which was absolutely horrendous, slow to navigate in Finder and slugish to interact with.

Since making these changes, I now get sustained ~80-100MB/s+ and instant Finder navigation which is superb and how things should be out-of-the-box (OOTB)!

May 2023 update: As of Ventura, the SMB issues were just horribly inconsistent and hard to maintain. Something in the combination of Unraid, macOS and SMB just doesn't play nice. I ended up binning NFS/SMB all together and heading to a locally hosted Nextcloud instance for file syncing, then using SFTP/Ansible Git flow for editing files within appdata.

Overview

The M-VAVE/CUVAVE Looper Pro (also branded by Lekato) is an affordable looper pedal for guitar. I got mine on AliExpress for $30.

It supports 9 loop slots, up to a total of 40 minutes of recording, and a maximum of 10 minutes per slot. It also has a USB port, which can be used to upload, download, or delete loop slots. Communication with the device is done over MIDI through the exchange of System Exclusive messages.
