FAQ on the xz-utils backdoor (CVE-2024-3094)

This is a living document. Everything in this document is made in good faith of being accurate, but like I just said; we don't yet know everything about what's going on.

Update: I've disabled comments as of 2025-01-26 to avoid everyone having notifications for something a year on if someone wants to suggest a correction. Folks are free to email to suggest corrections still, of course.

Background

Copy Likes to a playlist in YouTube Music

This is a very hacky solution to copy Liked songs to a playlist since YTM still doesn't have the functionality. I'm using this to copy songs out of YTM to another service, then unsubscribing. Thus, I won't be maintaining it (or ever using it again). It will only work while the YTM interface is the same as it is today (3/6/21) and will break once they make updates.

Steps to use:

Create a new playlist
Go to your Likes page (in chrome, on a desktop or laptop). Scroll to the bottom so all songs are loaded
Open Chrome's dev tools (F12 on windows), go to the console
Paste the script below. Edit the first line, replace "YOUR_PLAYLIST_NAME" with your playlist's name
Press enter

	const feedContent = document.querySelector('.feed-content')

	const feedMain = document.querySelector('.feed-main')
	feedContent.style.maxWidth = "unset"
	feedMain.style.maxWidth = "1200px"

	fetch('https://github.com/dashboard-feed')
