What Hacker News says?
It depends on how you define supply chain attacks. Recently, there was an exploit discovered in an abandoned Rust package that was used by many other Rust projects, many unaware of it due to the sheer number of dependencies. Whether by negligence or malice, having a known vulnerability that permeates significant portions of the ecosystem is on the order of a supply chain attack. https://edera.dev/stories/tarmageddon…

HN discussionThe reason why virtualization approaches with true Linux kernels is still important is what you do allow via syscalls ultimately does result in a syscall on the host system, even if through layers of indirection. Ultimately, if you fork() in gVisor, that calls fork() on the host (btw fork() execve() is expensive on gVisor still). The middle ground we've built is that a real Linux kernel interfaces with your applicat…

HN discussionThis is a big reason for our strategy at Edera ( https://edera.dev ) of building hypervisor technology that eliminates the standard x86/ARM kernel overhead in favor of deep para-virtualization. The performance of gVisor is often a big limiting factor in deployment.
