infosex.exchange <3

You are probably looking for the infosec.exchange Mastodon instance

This host is mostly for my random stuff, and in little part acts like a well-intentioned placeholder for the typosquatted domain.

Discoverability and Archiving

Currently I'm using this host for saving the items from my own feeds to the Wayback Machine and provide in-links for search engines. I hate that I have to do this, but the non-sense ideology of Mastodon pretty much ruined the search feature for Fediverse as a whole, and this wasn't changed by the fact that they owned their mistake and implemented search eventually.

Yes, I (or anyone else) could do similar things with other peoples published feeds, regardless of the tantrum. No, you can't defederate this, because the process doesn't rely on an instance.

Gluttony Section for Search Engines

@ligniform Ahh thanks, I remembered it being under Community, but with careful inspection I found the two tiny arrows under the score circle...

Anyway, I'd appreciate if my threat intel followers would put a banhammer on the jofogas-order[.]help domain <3

Unauthenticated Remote Code Execution in Erlang/OTP SSH

Not much details and unfortunately I don't know much Erlang (yet), but this one seems pretty interesting!

@swapgs Maybe something like this could hit a sweet spot?

@osxreverser I'm sure it's also a coincidence that the moment the bubble of $GPUintensiveTech0 (coins) seemed to burst $GPUintensiveTech1 (LLMs) popped up...

@swapgs Unix philosophy. I want to focus on unintended traversals specifically and IMO detecting e.g. symlinks is beyond that scope. I also think special cases are easier to handle once you have a "well behaving" path, but I may be wrong. Can you provide an example where I'm "missing out"?

@swapgs I don't follow, could you point to specific parts of the repo/give an example?

I've been wondering for a long time if #DirectoryTraversal vulnerabilities could be mitigated by a safe path handling library (similarly to e.g. ORM's). As a side-quest, I stared to implement a prototype for Python, and I'm super interested in your unfiltered opinions:
