“We recently became aware of certain vulnerabilities in EAS encoder/decoder devices that, if not updated to the most recent software versions, could allow an actor to issue EAS alerts over the host infrastructure (TV, radio, cable network),” the DHS's Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) warned.

I would encourage you to donate to DefconWarningSystem as well.The US Department of Homeland Security is warning of vulnerabilities in the nation’s emergency broadcast network that makes it possible for hackers to issue bogus warnings over radio and TV stations.

For Windows or Andriod, Defcon Warning System has an official application that they provide. This script will not work on Windows or Android. However, if you do have issues on a specific linux distribution, feel free to create an issue and I'll see if I can fix it! I have made efforts to try to ensure compatibility across most distributions, but can't guarantee much. This script is used by the developer on an Ubuntu 18.04.6 install, and is occasionally tested on other distros. You can also right-click the icon for a menu and select "refresh". If only the yad icon (a beaker) is showing up, try delaying the autostart by using bash -c "sleep 10 & ".

If the icon is not showing up in the system tray, try installing the TopIconsPlus shell extension.

Wget errors are generally due to internet connectivity or file permission issues.

If there is an error message, proceed with debugging from there. Navigate to the directory in terminal, then run. If the script fails to run, try running the script from the command line. If the icon is grey, and displays a number sign ( #) crossed out, then either there is no internet connection, or the DWS servers are down. The default icon size in this extension should also be set to 16 pixels, if you want the icon to look right.

Ubuntu users may need to install the "TopIconsPlus" extension through Ubuntu Software -> Add-ons -> Shell Extensions in order to get the system tray icon to display. I am not associated with Defcon Warning System, please ask for support here rather than on their forums. There is also a utility menu if you right-click on the tray icon, with links to the DWS webpage, DWS Forums, DWS twitter, the install folder on your computer, a refresh command, etc. To ensure the script is launched every time you turn on your computer, add the DWS-linux.sh script to Startup Applications or the like ( twitter.sh will auto-start if needed). Make sure that the scripts are also given execution rights, either through chmod +x DWS-linux.sh and chmod +x twitter.sh or through checking the tick box in file properties.

To "install" this script, download the repository into any user directory (home, Documents, etc.), and update the INSTALL_DIR variable in DWS-linux.sh to the directory of the repository (e.g.

(choose your own cache time by hosting your own image).

If you dislike this, you can disable the twitter feature entirely in the DWS-linux.sh config section, or change the url to an rss feed of your liking in the twitter.sh config section. I use a slightly modified version of twitter2rss that has a caching time of 1 minute to enable reasonable update speed.

#DEFCON WARN FULL#

In the interest of full disclosure, since Twitter has disabled the rss feed option, the solution I found involved hosting my own rss feed at. Twitter checks can be disabled, and in fact the tray icon can be disabled as well, leaving a "headless" version with just the notification pop-ups. The update interval, as well as notification preferences, can be set in DWS-linux.sh. By default, notifications are also generated each time the defcon status changes, and whenever a new tweet is posted on the DEFCONWSALERTS Twitter page. This repository provides a simple shell script to generate a icon in the system tray that displays the current defcon status, as determined by The Defcon Warning System.
