OK, I am going to ask Product Security to edit their blog post to remove the incorrect information. I will CC you on that request.

Or maybe I should rephrase this as a "request for clarification," because maybe they know something that we don't. E.g. the Ars article [1] says

"The build environment on Fedora 40, for example, contains incompatibilities that prevent the injection from correctly occurring. Fedora 40 has now reverted to the 5.4.x versions of xz Utils."

Now, that's a secondary source, and I'm not confident if it is true, but perhaps Product Security had time to analyze the build logs before publishing and found something that we don't know about. Richard, what do you think?
