Friday Five — December 7, 2018

On Monday, we issued a critical Security Advisory and patches for CVE-2018-1002105, a privilege escalation flaw impacting Kubernetes. This fix is the result of the efforts of the Kubernetes community and leading contributors like Red Hat.

Since 2006, Red Hat has recognized Red Hat® Certified Professionals (RHCP) who demonstrate ingenuity, hard work, and expertise. RHCPs can nominate themselves for the award or be nominated by a customer, team member, employer, or Red Hat employee.

InfoQ recently spoke with Rich Sharples, senior director of product management for Middleware at Red Hat, to discuss OpenJDK and Red Hat's involvement with it.
