ALL CLEAR for Fedora Rawhide and Fedora 40 Beta builds regarding the xz exploit. 👍
Things had stabilized soon after the initial security advisory, but we're now confirming that you can use Rawhide and Fedora 40 Beta safely as long as you have the latest updates or reinstall (which is not a bad idea to be safe).
Fedora 38 and 39 were never affected.
