GoAhead TLS Flaws Allow Revoked Client Certificates and Enable Session Decryption
The GoAhead embedded web server loaded a certificate revocation list into its default TLS backend but never turned revocation checking on, so a revoked client certificate could still pass login on affected setups. The flaw is in builds that use the OpenSSL backend with mutual-TLS, where the server checks a client certificate and vice versa, and a revocation list is configured to block revoked

Announcing the Workload Conformance Working Group
We are excited to announce that the Kubernetes community now has a Workload Conformance Working Group . The working group is writing a shared standard for how workloads behave at runtime on Kubernetes. To get it right, we need input from the people who build those workloads and from the people who run the clusters they're deployed on. Why workloads need a shared standard Certified Kubernetes tests the cluster, and Kubernetes AI Conformance tests whether a cluster can run AI and ML workloads. Nothing comparable exists for the workloads themselves, so cluster operators still check each application by hand before routine maintenance or a Kubernetes upgrade. The problems they find are familiar. A routine node drain is often how you discover that an application can't tolerate disruption. An upgrade can break an application that still depends on a removed API version . Others show up in day-to-day operation: workloads that ask for privileges they don't need, or reserve resources they never use. Kubernetes already documents much of this, including security and handling disruptions . Even so, every cluster operator ends up repeating the same assessment, and application maintainers get the same questions from each environment they support. A common specification with repeatable tests would give both groups the same baseline to start from. What the working group will deliver The charter sets out three deliverables: A specification of workload behavior for each Kubernetes minor version. A method for testing each requirement against a running workload. Upstream conformance tooling that implements those tests. The first step is deciding which workloads and behaviors the specification covers. The scope includes security, resilience during disruptions, resource use, networking, storage, API usage, and observability, but the group hasn't yet agreed on specific requirements or on how to test them. However, one rule is already set: every requirement needs an objective test that a test binary can run, so nothing subjective goes into the specification. The specification covers how a workload runs, and importantly not what it does. Consequently, application logic is out of scope of workload conformance. The binary won't retest anything Certified Kubernetes already covers, and it won't require a particular workload packaging format, or vendor tool like policy engine, security scanner, etc. How the work is organized Two Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are sponsors for the working group. SIG Architecture will own the specification and tooling through a subproject, which will be created once the first artifacts are proposed by the Working Group. SIG Apps will bring the application perspective. Whenever a requirement touches another Kubernetes SIG's area, such as node behavior or networking, the working group will initiate conversations with those SIGs as well. The working group is a forum where SIGs can get involved and shape the direction of Workload Conformance while the specification is being written. We're aiming for a stable first specification and working tests within two to three Kubernetes release cycles. Get involved The specification will and needs to be built from real examples, so we want to hear your experiences. If you run clusters, tell us how you assess workloads today and what broke during your last upgrade or maintenance window. If you maintain an application, tell us what it needs from the cluster and where the existing guidance left you guessing. Beyond examples, the work needs reviewers for proposed requirements and contributors to write the tests and tooling. When early versions of the tests are ready, we also want early testers to run the binary against your own workloads and tell us where the results differ between runs or environments. If a requirement touches your SIG's area, help us check its scope and the test behind it. And because the subproject will outlive the working group, we're also looking for people who want to maintain it for the long term. You can find us in #wg-workload-conformance on Kubernetes Slack (visit slack.k8s.io for an invitation) and on the mailing list . The working group meets every other Wednesday at 15:00 UTC. The Zoom link and the agenda are in the meeting notes . If you want to raise a topic, add it to the agenda. Joining the mailing list usually adds the meeting invite to your calendar. Thanks to everyone who reviewed and supported the working group proposal .

Ukraine war briefing: Russia strikes Kyiv hours before truce begins in war-ravaged city Oleshky
Zelenskyy says ballistic missiles hit crowded areas with no military facilities nearby; truce comes amid reports of growing humanitarian crisis. What we know on day 1,707 Russian strikes on Kyiv killed one person and wounded eight , with mayor Vitali Klitschko saying medical facilities and an intensive care unit had been damaged in the late Monday attack. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said a ballistic missile attack had struck the grounds of a university campus in the Ukrainian capital. “The missiles hit very crowded areas, and there is not a single military facility nearby. This was a strike directly on the city, on its infrastructure,” he said on social media. The strikes on Kyiv came hours before a truce in the ravaged Russian-occupied city of Oleshky was due to start , after months of reports that residents faced dire food, water and medicine shortages . The truce, aimed at allowing humanitarian aid into Oleshky, was to begin at 3am local time (0100 GMT). No end date for the truce has been provided. The city in Ukraine’s southern Kherson region has been caught in the crosshairs of fighting between the two sides since 2022, when it was seized by Russian forces. Neither Russia, Ukraine nor the US has said who would monitor the truce, or given details about the humanitarian operation set to accompany it. The Russian defence ministry said on Friday it would halt fire in the “Kherson sector” for the duration of the ceasefire. Ukraine has accused Russia of blocking residents from leaving, a charge Moscow has denied. Before the latest strikes on Kyiv, Zelenskyy highlighted Ukraine was still waiting for US defence secretary Pete Hegseth to sign off on critical missile supplies . “We have been waiting for nearly a month for Mr Hegseth to sign off on missiles for Patriots and NASAMS. I instructed our team to raise this with the American side once again,” he said on X. Romania said on Monday that a network “coordinated” from Russia was involved in starting a fire near an arms factory . The fire broke out on 14 September near an arms factory in the central city of Brasov and two Belarusians and a Ukrainian – residents in EU countries – were involved, authorities said. Two of them were “tracked down and remanded in custody in Germany while they were preparing to commit similar offences”, the office for organised crime said. The third is at large in Poland, it added. Russia’s embassy in Bucharest could not immediately be reached for comment but Moscow has repeatedly denied such accusations. The attack in Brasov is the latest in a string of similar incidents in Europe , with Nato and the EU grappling with what they say is a “hybrid” campaign of sabotage and interference by the Kremlin aimed at undercutting Western support for Kyiv. Over the past three weeks, at least eight cargo ships have been hit off the coast of Nato members Romania and Bulgaria. Some 34 sailors are reported dead or missing. Ukraine’s military has begun using specialised aerial rescue drones to evacuate wounded soldiers from the battlefield , carrying two stranded troops to safety near the Russian border in the first such operations. The newly developed StarGate drone, a six-rotor aircraft fitted with an enclosed evacuation capsule, was used in two separate missions over the past week, the 475th Separate Assault Regiment, an elite unit, said on Monday. Developed by Ukrainian technology company SkyFall, the drone is intended to reduce rescue times from hours to minutes, reaching hard-to-access combat zones currently served by unmanned ground vehicles.
