FreeBSD makes progress with reproducible builds |
 |
The FreeBSD Foundation has announced improvements to the operating system's build infrastructure. The new improvements allow FreeBSD to be built without administrator access on the build system. The FreeBSD Foundation has also reported progress in making reproducible builds: "Removing the need for root privileges in the build pipeline has reduced the attack surface and potential for privilege escalation. It enables safer and more flexible build environments, both for official infrastructure and for community contributors. In parallel with the no-root work, FreeBSD has introduced several changes to improve build reproducibility - ensuring that identical source inputs always produce identical binary outputs, byte-for-byte. These changes span the operating system itself, the release tooling, and the build process."
