schestowitz"Today, we'll teach you how to set up an HTTPS to HTTP reverse proxy. This service can come in handy if you have an HTTP Web server hosted in an internal network that you would like external clients to access via HTTPS. That way, inbound clients connecting via the Internet can access your site securely. "Oct 27 07:09

schestowitzthen can do the same for tuxmachines, using the same reverse proxyOct 27 07:09

schestowitzReading further into it, this kind of setup seems common, wherein the proxy manages both cert renewals and serving thoseOct 27 07:21

schestowitzotherwise it gives many false positives and takes lots of timeOct 27 18:39
DaemonFC[m]Because then they sit on it, fully aware of what it is, and then a year goes by and all of a sudden it gets independently discovered and Windows or something is under attack by real malware.Oct 27 18:39

schestowitzthere are many post-Microsoft battlesOct 27 18:39
schestowitzfor many decades to come, I thinkOct 27 18:40
DaemonFC[m]Where they have to fix it anyway with an untested patch, that breaks something else. When they had an entire year to implement a working patch and there never would have been an attack.Oct 27 18:40
schestowitzwe need to focus on paradigms, not brandsOct 27 18:40
schestowitznot fixing security issue is one issueOct 27 18:40
schestowitzit's harder with Free softwareOct 27 18:40
schestowitzbecause people can see the issueOct 27 18:40
schestowitzand people can exploit fastOct 27 18:40
DaemonFC[m]They attack free/open source software for having "lots of CVE patches".Oct 27 18:40
schestowitzso it encourages good and fast ass-coveringOct 27 18:40
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: they compare apples to orangesOct 27 18:41
DaemonFC[m]Not focusing on the issue that many of them are unimportant and only technically a CVE, and they're getting patched instead of ignored and denied.Oct 27 18:41
schestowitzbut the rebuttals are out there alreadyOct 27 18:41
schestowitzthey also say we reuse libs with bugsOct 27 18:41
schestowitzbut they're patched upstream, then integratedOct 27 18:41
schestowitzFAR more difficult when you fuse together bits of nonfree softwareOct 27 18:41
DaemonFC[m]Well, reusing a library that gets fixed is better than having dlls all over the place where you don't know what you've got.Oct 27 18:42
schestowitzlike all sorts of unlabeled BSD codeOct 27 18:42
DaemonFC[m]And that was a problem on Windows 20 years ago and it's worse now.Oct 27 18:42
schestowitzwith lots of hacks and bugs in itOct 27 18:42
schestowitzDaemonFC[m]: worseOct 27 18:42
schestowitznot just CVE issueOct 27 18:42
schestowitzalso integrityOct 27 18:42
schestowitzthis is why Windows Vista 10 keeps breaking downOct 27 18:42
schestowitznot enough maintainers for pertinent packages... they hardly even have packages... it's kludgeOct 27 18:43
schestowitzyou change one thing, another silently breaksOct 27 18:43
DaemonFC[m]Yes, and Firefox CVEs are sometimes trying to block the browser from being tricked into loading a malicious dll and it's not really a bug in Firefox. It's preventing the way Windows works from working, and then Microsoft says Firefox has more bugs.Oct 27 18:43
schestowitzso they cannot even fix critical sec issues without deleting your files or somethingOct 27 18:43
DaemonFC[m]So this whole signing thing is because anyone could otherwise toss anything they want in the right place and Firefox would load it in Windows. Oct 27 18:44
DaemonFC[m]Not just add-ons, malicious dll code injections that would otherwise bypass the signature check on the add-ons.Oct 27 18:44
DaemonFC[m]It's never been a huge problem in Linux distributions because of centralized application sources instead of random EXEs off the internet. And Microsoft managed to blow it big time with the Windows store to where developers are either ignoring it or giving it a degraded experience. Oct 27 18:45
schestowitzgive them timeOct 27 18:46
schestowitzI see the numbers there are patheticOct 27 18:46

schestowitzI think they also give it away for free nowOct 27 18:46
schestowitzthe 'cash cow' in Windows is just leveraging it as common carrierOct 27 18:46
