alt Hacker NewsI dunno, the post is awfully critical of Chainguard for leaking a fixed binary 6 hours early, but it was the research firm "partner" that "mistakenly" posted the dancing anime POC video over 24 hours early that created the mass panic (not to mention spawning millions of agents crawling the php codebase and trying to brute force a POC and probably using more energy than a lot of countries in the process).

Agree. If I'm following along correctly, it seems Calif is really the one to blame not Chaingaurd.
The video has no usable details in it.
It's maybe not professional to release an omg panic video, but not even remotely the same thing as what chainguard did.

They took it down but someone (Kirill Firsov: https://x.com/k_firsov/status/2112641845926989944) added the anime stuff and reposted it. Totally irresponsible.
Edit: okay he didn't add the anime, but he reposted it.
i keep seeing mentions of the video, but is it still available anywhere?
