"sent from my iphone" originally meant more than just "i have a fancy phone that lets me send email" in the early days it meant "I'm not at my desk right now."
I get the criticism but also I don't get the criticism.
Thank fuck that someone found this bug and let them and the rest of us about it so we can protect ourselves. My forgejo instance was already running on my tailnet with no public exposure but had been considering public disclosure of it for some collaborators.
There has been a lot of talk around forgejo as an alternative to github for months now. To now understand that their security posture seems to be, 'like, yaknow, whatever...' is disturbing.
I think both parties can take this opportunity to mature. I understand that Forgejo is a community project, but community projects should have standards or very explicit disclaimers when it comes to security.
The growing popularity of the project + an increase of AI-powered security enthusiasts submitting random bugs has created a HUGE backlog for the Foregejo security team.
Instead of acting like this, the author should offer to help the project.
coordinated disclosure has always been a courtesy (with a deadline to motivate the vendor to fix their stuff) and i don't like how people seem to just expect it now

This is because the people who promote these technologies, and the companies that sell these technologies, engage in a massive amount of puffery (aka hyperbolizing aka just straight telling lies).
These technologies are painted as the magical solution to whatever problem you have (all it costs you is a few tens of thousands of tokens, aka your water supply). There is literally nothing they CAN'T do if you will just let us build these gigantic small town destroying, noise polluting, water and electricity hungry 'AI data-centers'. So that we can use those datacenters to sell you more tokens to put into their slot machines.
it might be interesting to use unused or extra wifi cards to support this. My pc motherboard has both wifi and ethernet and I only use the ethernet. That card does absolutely nothing at all.
