| schestowitz-pi2 | topped only by "tiktok" | Dec 21 08:05 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | because it's not easy to find such material anymore | Dec 21 08:05 |
| techrights-sec | Many media sites are promoting tiktok against their own interests but | Dec 21 08:09 |
| techrights-sec | that is not new. They did the same with other social control media. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| techrights-sec | However the difference here is that tiktok is a weapon and that the media | Dec 21 08:09 |
| techrights-sec | companies have vastly ramped up their support and promotion of it compared | Dec 21 08:09 |
| techrights-sec | to the promotion they did for Facebook, Twitter, etc | Dec 21 08:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | no. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | tiktok is known to be a weapon. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | the other ones started more benign. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | even linkedin. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | weaponised over time. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | so the media should know better. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | also, leaning from past experiences. | Dec 21 08:09 |
| techrights-sec | Yes, tiktok is a weapon from day one, but unlike the others, the media are | Dec 21 08:09 |
| techrights-sec | promoting it with much more energy. | Dec 21 08:09 |

| techrights-sec | Fairly hard since options are difficult to do accurately in shell script | Dec 21 09:00 |

| techrights-sec | Perhaps | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | tr-add-and-refresh-from-db.sh URL | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | would work | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | Looking at the work flow, tr-add-and-refresh-from-db.sh, is called via SSH | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | and while we trust those logging in, there are implications for acccepting | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | a URL that way. Also, I don't want to risk breaking stuff for Arindam and | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | Marius and Rianne. | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | Either way, it would be tr-add-entry-sql.pl which would need modification | Dec 21 09:00 |
| techrights-sec | to accept a URL and fetch it and make sure it is an image and then pass | Dec 21 09:00 |

| schestowitz-pi2 | now it loads correctly | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | giorgie from linuxgizmos used to put many bad chars for a while4~ | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | we nnever solved that issue, but he stopped doing it | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | they also culled description as per that rss struct at some point | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | so in TR | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | and also in rss_since | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | it does not show body | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | sorry, in TM | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | not in TR | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | in the sidebar | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | feedlist python script can still get the body ok | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | anyway, linuxgizmos sorted out its own char integrity issue | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | now redhat.com did the same | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | their sites are a MESS | Dec 21 09:13 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | it's like staff comes and goes | Dec 21 09:13 |

The recent "CitrixBleed" vulnerability is exploited using the OpenID connect URL (%%cve:2023-4966%% | Dec 21 09:24 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | , %%cve:2023-4967%%). An attack would also include an oversized Host header in a request to the OpenID URL. The scans I have observed do not appear to include this oversized Host header. Looks like they are just looking for possible targets to exploit later.</p>

| schestowitz-pi2 | right now we have a chain for the tools, rianne saw how to use 'tm' | Dec 21 13:21 |
| schestowitz-pi2 | one possible shortcut is, skip the steps the Date and Author | Dec 21 13:21 |

| techrights-sec | tr-add-entry-sql.pl -a 'Roy Schestowitz' -u http://example.com/foo.png | Dec 21 13:23 |
| techrights-sec | With the -u option, tr-add-entry-sql.pl fetches the URL and then processes | Dec 21 13:23 |
| techrights-sec | it and puts the appropriate HTML element (IMG) into the body so it is | Dec 21 13:23 |
| techrights-sec | not necessary to copy and paste. I'll look at adding the capability for | Dec 21 13:23 |
