A redesign of #Flathub is live! Drop by https://t.co/bKV1WvjG3M to see all the shiny new things, such as developer verification and download graphs.

There's more under the hood, including subsets to enable only verified or FLOSS apps. Stay tuned for more updates!

One issue (CVE-2023-28101) involves maliciously crafted metadata hiding permissions using special characters and the other (CVE-2023-28100) involves an ioctl system call allowing copy/paste on virtual terminals (tty1, tty2, etc.)

Had a great time last week talking about Flathub and @FlatpakApps with @ChrisLAS and team at @LinuxUnplugged !

[Codethink @codethink]

Exciting news coming from the #flathub and @FlatpakApps communities! We are happy to keep helping advance the new models for #Linux application distribution. We wrote a small article some time ago of our involvement there: https://t.co/H2M77AjqkL

Flathub, the App Store of the Linux world, just got a rebrand! https://t.co/Qz0njMAuaF

Really happy with the direction @gnome and the wider Linux app ecosystem is going. Great design is becoming more and more common 🔥 @jimmac

[Miguel Pérez Colino 🦎 @mmmmmmpc]

This can be huge for the #Linux desktop.
Improvements in Flatpak can provide a way to donate/pay developers and have better reviewed, more secure apps. Community managed.
