XZ backdoor story – Initial analysis
Very funny. This one:
https://github.com/tukaani-project/xz/commits?author=thesame...
- Xz: Update maintainer and author info. The other maintainer suddenly disappeared
- Thanks Andres Freud
- The xz-utils backdoor has been removed

The xz sshd backdoor rabbithole goes quite a bit deeper
> The payload of the 'hack' contains fairly easy ways for the xz hackers to update the payload. They actually used it to remove a real issue where their hackery causes issues with valgrind that might lead to discovering it, and they also used it to release 5.6.1 which rewrites significant chunks;
The valgrind fix in 5.6.1 overwrites the same test files used in 5.6.0 instead of using the injection code's extension hooks. This is done with what should have been a highly suspicious commit: https://github.com/tukaani-project/xz/commit/6e636819e8f0703... - this replaces "random" test files with other "random" test files. The state reson is questionable to begin but not including the seed used when the the purpoted reason was to be able to re-create the files in the future is highly suspicous. This should have raised red flags bug no one was watching. I'd say this is another part of the operation that was much more sloppy than it needed to be.

Are there any C++ library to talk to USB devices like a Teensy 4.1?
I've found juce_serialport and libusb but have not used them before.
-
Is there a USB library like TeensySharp written in C++?
I've found these two libraries, libusb and juce_serialport, from forms and searching online but I have no experience with manually doing this and the libraries seem to have a lot of extra features for other applications.

Need help with Flatpak package's dependencies
The problem I'm facing now is I want to add libusb as a dependency, but am baffled at how this is meant to work. Is there a tool similar to flatpak-pip-generator that can take a source repository and generate the manifest entry for me? Or is there a set of steps I need to take manually?
What are some alternatives?

tinyusb - An open source cross-platform USB stack for embedded system
libarchive - Multi-format archive and compression library
