It's lately been in the tech news and now circulating on social media about the "Copy.Fail" vulnerability in Linux, also officially tracked as CVE-2026-31431. AllStarLink v3 is based on Debian 13 Trixie (current version) and still supports Debian 12 Bookworm. The fix for CVE-2026-31431 has already been released by Debian. AllStarLink users are encouraged to upgrade their software using either Cockpit or the command line.
