Please add Cyanide / 0xjohnny attribution for OTA implementation #321

Description

@0xjohnnydev

Hi, I am 0xjohnny. My GitHub username is @0xjohnnydev, and I previously used zeroxjf.

Lara's lara/kexploit/ota.m contains substantial implementation overlap with Cyanide's OTA implementation. Cyanide had the related implementation by May 8, 2026, while Lara added its similar file on May 29, 2026.

Evidence:

After comments and blank lines are removed and whitespace is normalized, the initial Cyanide and Lara snapshots contain 122 matching lines. That covers about 40% of Cyanide's file and 44% of Lara's file.

The current Lara source and acknowledgements do not credit Cyanide or me. Please add a clear provenance notice near the top of lara/kexploit/ota.m and in the README or credits. Please retain it in future source and binary releases.

Suggested notice:

Portions of the OTA implementation are adapted from Cyanide by 0xjohnny (GitHub @0xjohnnydev, formerly zeroxjf), first published in May 2026 under AGPL-3.0.

This is a request to correct attribution and AGPL license-notice provenance. It is not a takedown request.
