After Mozilla compromise, Rust devs eye "remediation speed" as the next hillclimb
charliermarsh · x · 2026-10-23
Charlie Marsh (Ruff author) discusses the remediation timeline of the Mozilla/eMudhra-level security incident, clarifying that "zero" marks Mozilla's public disclosure on its security-policy mailing list, with some teams notified privately beforehand. He suggests a new optimization frontier for open-source projects: how quickly an eMudhra-level incident can be fully remediated, akin to the community's ongoing Rust-rewrite hillclimb.
