Path clustering for multipathdan idea by mwilck Recent multipath-tools contains a patch series that allows latency-based path prioritization. However the code is clumsy and not well designed. More importantly, I think that the applied algorithm, which is based on simple methods like comparing averages and standard deviations, is suboptimal. I consider replacing it with a clustering-based approach, using the open source cluster library. |

Learn more about Application Security (AppSec) Open Source Tools and Testing Techniquesan idea by heidi.bronson Project DescriptionApplication security (AppSec) is a threat that all organizations are facing. While we have QA engineers and security teams to help avoid these threats, true AppSec can only be obtained by giving developers the tools to find and fix vulnerabilities before their code is pushed into the deployment pipeline. As a software engineer, I want to make sure that my applications are secure. During this hackweek, I want to study the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities, related testing techniques, and open source tools that can be used to test our applications and keep them safe from malicious actors. |

Tahoe-LAFS on OpenSUSEa project by gsanso Tahoe-LAFS is an open-source decentralized cloud storage system. It distributes your data across multiple servers. Even if some of the servers fail or are taken over by an attacker, the entire file store continues to function correctly, preserving your privacy and security. It provides a provider-independent security where the storage provider does not have access to the unencrypted data because all data is encrypted, erasure-coded, and hashed before leaving the client's machine thus preserving confidentiality, availability, and integrity of the data. |
Securing a CMS by using a hidden CMS and exporting static html to a web servera project by johannes_p Small non profit organisations or activist groups need a Web presence that is easy to maintain by several authors. When using a CMS they do not have the resources to secure the CMS from the various possible attacs most CMSes are notorious for. Defacement or placing malicious content can damage the reputation of such non profit organisations. The solution would be to combine an of the shelf CMS with a static web server that is hosted on a different IP address. The authors would access the CMS through a kind of remote access gateway e.g. openvpn) where access can be well secured with certificates or even hardware tokens. |

improving touchpad driveran idea by maweiss Well, I already joined a project, but for those of you who still don't have one and need some good ideas, why not improving the tenuous touchpad driver? (at least the synaptics driver is) <br><br> Notebooks nowadays don't have real physical buttons anymore, but a ClickPad you push down. Unfortunately, the curser still moves while clicking so you often miss the object you want to click on. IMHO touchpad drivers should have the following features:<br><br> |

solar monitor (part 2)an idea by npower Project DescriptionLast hackweek I worked on a solar monitor for our solar installation detail are here. At the time I didn't have a device to load it on but eventually I got a hold of a raspberry pi (and screen). I ended up building yast for it and got it working. Unfortunately I couldn't get the touch screen to work for it with tumbleweed on pi so I ended up using the debian based raspberry pi OS. This works pretty well except for an annoying wrinkle, it seems a long running yast (using our yast python bindings) ui app burns memory and it ends freezing the raspberry pi nearly once a day so now I have a cron job to kill the X server twice a day (just to be sure) so that the monitor UI is restarted. This is probably the most serious issue (and really I suppose needs attention as it affects anything else using the yast python bindings). There are other issues (and bugs) with the solar monitor that I haven't had a chance to investigate that I would love to work on over hack week |
