Field notes
The page follows a vulnerability-advisory sequence from summary and impact assessment through technical details, proof of concept, mitigations, and CERT alerts. Its browser scanner invites a keystroke and displays a session count; the page says it neither records the keys nor sends them elsewhere. The mock exploit ends with a sudo prompt and an identity check, then lands on the joke that it is 17:58 on a Friday.
