Сообщение ChainCatcher, согласно The Block, Фонд Linux официально учредил фонд x402, состоящий из 40 членов компании, которые составляют управляющую структуру, Coinbase завершила свои взносы в этот протокол. Основные участники включают Ripple, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Stripe, Adyen, Fiserv, Shopify, Google, AWS, Cloudflare, а также Circle, MoonPay, фонд Solana и фонд Stellar.Этот протокол позволяет серверам отвечать на запросы с помощью ответа 402 и цен, клиент подписывает перевод стейблкоина (обычно USDC) и повторно отправляет запрос для получения данных, без необходимости в учетной записи, кредитной карте или предварительных отношениях между сторонами, что делает его естественно совместимым с приложениями AI-агентов. Ранее в апреле сообщалось, что нейтральный интернет-платежный протокол x402, инкубируемый Coinbase, будет передан под управление Фонда Linux и будет функционировать в форме независимого фонда "Фонд x402".

The Chief Information Security Officer of Slow Fog, 23pds, disclosed that a privilege escalation vulnerability named Dirty Frag has been exposed in Linux systems, with complete details and exploit code now public. This vulnerability allows any local low-privilege user to directly obtain root privileges on almost all mainstream Linux distributions. It is classified as a deterministic logic flaw, and the attack does not rely on complex race conditions, resulting in a very high success rate without causing kernel crashes, posing significant danger. Linux users are advised to upgrade their systems promptly.

According to CoinDesk, the smart business payment protocol x402 developed by Coinbase has officially joined the Linux Foundation, promoting it as an open, standardized infrastructure.The protocol has established an initial governance body, the x402 Foundation, with Cloudflare and Stripe as founding members. Organizations such as Adyen, Amazon Web Services, American Express, Ant International, Base, Circle, Google, KakaoPay, Mastercard, Microsoft, Polygon Labs, Shopify, Solana Foundation, and Visa have also expressed their intention to participate.Linux Foundation CEO Jim Zemlin stated that the x402 Foundation will promote the development of related capabilities in an open, community-governed manner, ensuring its evolution under the principles of transparency, interoperability, and broad participation.James Tromans, Managing Director of Google Cloud Web3 and Digital Asset Business, also stated that joining the x402 Foundation reflects Google's commitment to supporting interoperable, AI-driven transaction standards.

Vitalik Buterin posted on the X platform that Ethereum can be likened to BitTorrent or Linux: the former represents a coexistence of decentralization and scale, while the latter is a model of open source, credibility, and widespread application.He emphasized that Ethereum L1 should become the foundation of finance, identity, and governance for individuals and organizations pursuing autonomy, capable of unleashing the full potential of the network without relying on intermediaries, and pointed out that the demand from enterprises for open, censorship-resistant systems is highly consistent with "trust minimization."

ChainCatcher message, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin expressed on social media regarding the removal of a Russian developer that sparked discussions about the Linux kernel, stating, "It is very concerning. Open source is a common wealth of humanity and should be a space for free international cooperation. If such behavior becomes normalized, the consequences look very bad."

ChainCatcher news, the Linux Foundation announced plans to establish the Linux Foundation Decentralized Trust (LF Decentralized Trust), which will be based on existing Linux Foundation blockchain and digital identity projects to support the rapid development of decentralized technologies. In addition, LF Decentralized Trust will encompass the growing Hyperledger project portfolio and host new open-source software, communities, standards, and specifications.

ChainCatcher news, Vitalik Buterin believes that Linux is the perfect solution to the Windows operating system problems faced by Musk, as Linux is open source. He invited Musk to join the desktop Linux community.It is reported that Linux is an operating system that was first released in 1991 and is currently very popular. The source code of open source software is available for anyone to view, modify, and improve.

Founding members include the ChainHub Foundation, Cloud Native Computing Foundation, Futurewei, GenXP, and others.It is reported that OMF is specifically divided into eight Fundamental Interest Groups (FIGs), namely Users, Transactions, Digital Assets, Simulation and Virtual Worlds, Artificial Intelligence, Networking, Security and Privacy, and Legal and Policy. These groups will provide targeted resources and forums for identifying new ideas, completing work, and recruiting new contributors. Each group is composed of members from specific disciplines dedicated to advancing projects or scalable technologies within their themes and ensuring the ownership of code for each identifiable sub-part of the project (e.g., GitHub.org, repositories, subdirectories, APIs, tests, issues, PRs).
