>make my website open source>people find security vulnerabilities in the code>instead of fixing them, they choose to endlessly exploit these vulnerabilities in order to make my life a living hell>i can't fix it because i don't know what the vulnerabilities arestop fucking telling me to make my backend open source. you glow so hard
>>107615273this is something i've thought abouthow do you figure out which parts of the code are the issue?
you could also just turn off your server and then debug it using the requests people were making, ever consider that
>he fell for the freetard scamlol lmao even
>>107615413i have no fuckin clue. if i'm a single individual i see no incentive to make anything I make open source if there's a possibility that some asshole is going to look at the code, find a problem, and abuse the shit out of the problem for lulz
>>107615423imagine more than 60 people using your server at once. how do you find the bad guy's requests
>>107615273>website has security vulnerabilitiesWhat kind of website is it?
>>107615436Dont let it get you down anon, i feel the same way working for fiat money as someone is going to print it from nothing and fuck a bunch of kids with it . But things like foss break these dark pathologies that fester among the kingdom of mans broken homes and troll hobbles
>>107615445tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep <bad ip> there you go
>>107615498>tail -f | grepwhat's wrong with less?
>>107615413>how do you figure out which parts of the code are the issue?Listen. You either know how to hack or you don't. The truth is hacking requires a high level of iq and cunning so you're probably not cut out for it. Back when I was getting started I thought about the same thing, but instead of "wondering" about it, I just hacked more.
>>107615273>>make my website open source>stop fucking telling me to make my backend open sourceso is it open or not?>>i can't fix it because i don't know what the vulnerabilities areif you lack the mental capacity to figure what's wrong why are you on the open internet?
>>107615273security by obscurity is not security desu
>>107615509wouldnt youd have to type in regex in less
>>107615554It definitely is to some extent. It took 10+ years plus for 4chan to be hacked despite the site effectively being untouched since moot left.
>>107615273>why don't people do my job for mebruh?
>>107615562uh, yes? the same one you type in on the command line you mean? also less allows you to change your mind and use a different one
>>107615554yes it is. can cybersecurity fucks stop regurgitating this like it will suddenly make them correct the more they say it?knowledge is power. having knowledge of internal functions grants power.
>>107615631you must be 18 to post here
>>107615638cybersec are the biggest fags in the tech industry. you are all hacks and I hate every single one of you.
Put up a logging proxy in front of your exposed Honeypot server and record what is being done to find the exploits being performed.
>>107615273What's the point of making your website open source though?
>>107615273>>make my website open sourceFirst mistake>>107615554It is not something you should rely on, but it is absolutely more secure than not having it.
>>107615573First person that spoke up about it.There is no incentive for a state actor collecting intelligence to vandalize the serverProbably was filled with radium isotopes thicker than fox acid
Open source is a hand to your community, might not be good code at first but offers solutions to others who might get stuck on what wasn't even a puzzle for another person.To better others is worth it in my book, even if we have to deal with bad eggs. Unless your broke as shit, sell your stuff first and open source later.
>>107615273>>107615436maybe the moral of the story is that you shouldn't write bloated websites. simple html is all you need
>>107615273Retard. Drop repo so 4bots will fix it for you. THAT's why you make it open sausces. So frens could help. BUt you need to invoke the frens over. Otherwise 4hakers will come over.
