GNU IFUNC is the real culprit behind CVE-2024-3094
The article argues that GNU IFUNC and OpenSSH's dependency on SystemD, not the xz-utils backdoor itself, were the root causes enabling the CVE-2024-3094 supply chain attack. It criticizes IFUNC as fragile, poorly documented, and a security risk that undermines RELRO protections, advocating for its removal or restriction to glibc internal use.
