Description
utils/linux-install-luarocks.shdownloads the LuaRocks source tarball withwgetand immediately extracts and builds it without any integrity verification. This means a corrupted download or a compromised/MITM'd fetch would be built and installed silently.This change hardens the install step against supply-chain tampering by pinning the expected SHA256 of the LuaRocks tarball and verifying it with
sha256sum -c -before extraction. If the checksum does not match, the script fails fast instead of building untrusted code.How:
LUAROCKS_SHA256for the already-pinnedLUAROCKS_VER=3.12.0.The expected hash
