5 Fediverse sites have been hacked due to running outdated software.
Please take a moment to ensure that your instance of Mastodon, Misskey, PeerTube, PixelFed, or any other Fediverse platform is fully up-to-date.
It may also be wise to log into your server and update your operating system.
Debian / Ubuntu servers:
sudo apt update
sudo apt dist-upgrade
sudo rebootFedora / CentOS / Red Hat / Alma Linux:
sudo dnf update --refresh
sudo dnf upgrade
sudo rebootIf you update your OS, your server will be briefly offline during the reboot. If you have not configured your web services — including your Fediverse service — to start automatically on boot, you may need to start them manually afterward.
Always make a backup before performing upgrades.
If any of this is confusing or feels overwhelming, you should reconsider whether you want to be a server administrator. This is not meant as an insult. It’s great that you wanted to contribute to the Fediverse, but you may be better off participating as a user rather than an admin. People depend on you to keep services running smoothly, and that requires knowing how to maintain your system safely and correctly.

@Edent wow, that was fast, thank you!

@Edent @silverpill don't use nulls. Just omit it.

Maybe #bovine is, what you're looking for.

@threkk the bot can now send Delete messages. They're processed successfully by Mastodon.social - so I assume they work elsewhere 🙂
Will have a think about editing.

@edent@mastodon.social :shrug: I was passing null around like candy but some implementations choke on that. In general, tolerance of odd values in cc is well handled, but I would just omit or send [].

@silverpill @julian @general
Ah, I assume that `cc` should also be null if it isn't copied to anyone?
