@IzzyOnDroid has been doing an amazing job getting our repo to over 30% of apps being reproducible. Maintaining a rebuilder takes a lot of constant work. Thank you!

As I've written before:

[...] the ecosystem is constantly moving: old toolchain and dependency bugs get fixed, but new ones keep popping up. [...] Reproducible Builds are not just an item on a checklist [...] It's an ongoing process involving not just upstream app developers, but also maintainers of repositories, clients, and rebuilders; those involved in outreach and writing documentation; developers and maintainers of tooling, toolchains, and dependencies. And often requires a lot of collaborative debugging :)

I accidentally found another security vulnerability in fdroidserver whilst working on something related to IzzyOnDroid.

We warned them months ago but were ignored *sigh*

"Another fdroidserver AllowedAPKSigningKeys certificate pinning bypass"

#IzzyOnDroid #Security

Should someone stumble upon the security vulnerability disclosure at openwall.com/lists/oss-securit… – be assured the patches have already been applied at #IzzyOnDroid (and also that androguard is already aware: github.com/androguard/androgua…)

Also see the toot by the original finder: tech.lgbt/@obfusk/113765201775…

#security

Invalid regexp for the certificate · Issue #1097 · androguard/androguard

See: https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2025/01/03/1 Seems a good idea to patch ;) The regex in question -- ^META-INF/..(DSA|EC|RSA)$ -- is supposed to match all filenames that start with ...

^GitHub

And to make finding, installing and updating easier, Sunup will become available at #IzzyOnDroid with the next sync around 7 pm. Congrats @unifiedpush – it has the "green shield up", meaning it's reproducible

But if you could get rid of that DEPENDENCY_INFO_BLOCK (a binary blob), that would be great. Easy to do, reach out to us for instructions, which do not fit into a toot – but wait, there are attachments, right? So for your build.gradle, see screenshot.

I'd also suggest looking at and linking to @IzzyOnDroid's great documentation for app devs on what to watch for: gitlab.com/IzzyOnDroid/repo/-/…, which is much more helpful than just creating upstream issues to say "broken, please fix" without detailed steps.

(By the way, if someone wants to try building Reproducible Builds themselves, I'd strongly suggest looking at gitlab.com/IzzyOnDroid/repo/-/…, which powers the #IzzyOnDroid #ReproducibleBuild system, covering over 30% of IoDs 1223 apps already)
