that’s not the product security team, afaict; it’s an ops team I believe. not that such work is worthless, but it’s more a concern if you were worried about someone owning the corporate network or web servers than about software review and fixes not happening

yeah when I was there it wasn’t in a separate function from ops, so I dunno what they have at risk there and how much of the work came from now-cancelled projects like the IOT bridge or whatever I haven’t fully understood what people at Mozilla do for the last 500 employees though, really

i went to a meetup at the mozilla berlin about contributing to their open-source products and the guy who ran it said he didn't know anything about contributing to the open-source products but that now (2017) was a really good time to publish an open source rust library that i could then spend the rest of my life being "the guy" for

Just a question, is anyone familiar with this service called privacy.com? What they do is you can make virtual, but valid credit cards there and use them to make a single purchase or repeated purchases from 1 webshop with them. The advantage is you can cancel the card at any time and put a very strict spending limit on it, so it can be used if you don't trust a company with your real CC info. Someone described it as "a password manager but for credit cards". I haven't heard from them before but it sounds like not a terrible idea, at first glance.

I’ve used it before for an nzb aggregator with a sketchy payment processor, it works really well. I especially liked their use case of signing up for a gym membership with a unique number, that way you can just walk away without dealing with cancellation hassles.

Pile Of Garbage posted:can you expand on this? to me having the interface makes sense as it needs to present an L3 gateway to route traffic via Shaggar posted:the windows native VPN also creates interfaces for VPN connections (as does wireguard), so he may be talking about specific interface types maybe? Not really sure. ewiley posted:Oh my Goooooood I had to deal with this fuckery when we moved from win7 to win10. They added some magic to the windows networking stack to silently prefer some interfaces while ignoring the actual OS routing table. Using find-netroute was literally the only way to see it in action. The upshot was when using full-tunnel VPN Windows would end up looping traffic through the “very fast” VPN pseudo-interface away from the regular interface despite there being a /32 route to the vpn gateway. Windows would read the iftype of the interface in the registry but the OpenVPN TAP adapter (and all other VPN provider adapters) showed up as ‘ethernet’. Microsoft has a ‘vpn’ adapter type, but that’s only for their PPP virtual adapters that didn’t work with the lazy code that VPN software developers used assuming their virtual adapters work just like Ethernet adapters (with respect to things like DHCP address assignment, ARP, etc). It's this. Microsoft adapter types are flagged as VPN whereas the other ones just treated as a standard networking adapter. this becomes an issue due to a win10 feature where it prefers IPv6 ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS AND FOREVER by default. connected to wifi that has ipv6 enabled? vpn won't work because the wifi adapter IPv4 network is on the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet and you're trying to reach 10.10.10.10. doesn't matter that there is another adapter right there with a route for 10.0.0.0/8. if there is an ipv6 adapter present and connected all traffic goes there. period. full stop. end of story. there's no gpo to fix this directly but there is a registry key where you can invert the preference to ipv4 over ipv6 which works for corporate computers but in the age of corona where people are connecting from whatever they have at home well...... however that isn't the only problem. if you're on vpn and have split brain dns (internal DNS gives you a different, private/vpn only IP than internet facing dns) you can run into a lot of issues. back in win8 MS added a feature called Smart Multi Home Name Resolution (SMHNR). basically W8+ will query all available DNS servers and take whatever responds the fastest. if there isn't a published external DNS record the DNS set on the non-vpn adapter will just return NXDOMAIN so SMHNR will wait and get the correct internal IP from the VPN DNS however, if there are entries for both internal and external you can run into issues where you're intermittently getting an external IP address for a service while on VPN depending on which DNS server responds faster. or just straight failures if you don't have hairpin NAT and depending on internal routing ~Coxy posted:WFH these last couple of months I have had nothing but trouble dealing with split tunnelling on the corp VPN. split tunneling plays into it but I've had way less of those problems once I figured out the ipv6 behavior

yes you can manually set the interface metric to like 1 or something on the vpn interface as a workaround e: it’s been a while so I looked this up again. it looks like it’s not routing but is actually dns again. if an interface has ipv6 that dns is getting used and if it returns NXDOMAIN well then it must not exist 30 TO 50 FERAL HOG fucked around with this message at 06:32 on Aug 17, 2020 |
