Those people don’t disclose anything and exploit the money for themselves.

i mean that linked article leaves the impression that the 0day ended up being fixed instead of exploited
maybe authors just were smart about it and quietly made a bunch of cash and never told anyone

edit: in short i don’t think responsible disclose should be respected if the other side is irresponsibly destroying the planet
besides what happened to code is law?

this app update showed up this week

if it’s not familiar it’s a popular international brokerage that handles hundreds of billions of dollars (at least). actual dollars, not stupid crypto poo poo

edit: to be clear, they are talking about a toggle on their login form where you enter your username and password. the toggle for ssl was off by default

iirc the last time it came up the authentication is always over tls but the actual trades and data could be sent over tls or not. the thing is that a lot of their traders think that they’re doing high frequency trading or some poo poo by hand and the millisecond saved by their phone not having to decrypt stuff matters.

doesn’t matter if it’s true if enough of their customers think they’re on a 486 on dial up in 2001 or something

Some corporate networks still restrict SSL connections. Yes, even in 2020. The option exists for those clients.

Otherwise, there's no reason to turn it off.

ok, it's not a hard requirement but if you want to allow insecure http in an app that goes through review you have to give apple a good reason to let you do this. looks like this policy was introduced in 2017

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/security/preventing_insecure_network_connections#3138036

maybe they've been using one of the listed exceptions

I was once a mobile app developer for a big stodgy company. All our poo poo was behind one of those data loss scanner appliances that strips SSL at the network edge, scans it, and re-encrypts it using an internal cert that is forcibly trusted on your machine courtesy of the MDM.

We used cert pinning in our product so our customers would have our app fail to work under such an environment, but hey our employees couldn’t have security

Those things are great because they often don't verify certificates properly, actively worsening security.

first of all, let me just say that I laughed a bit at Google Bøger because I am a child

Also, the certificate for google.dk it's giving me doesn't match the same expiration date as yours so maybe check that your certificate cache isn't out of date for some reason?

thx ill try

e: hmm i went into keychain and found an old TDC (danish telco) cert that i deleted and now it works even though that cert had nothing to do with google. i guess that caused a refresh? :confused:

e2: i mean gmail works but google books just errors out without even showing the cert

e3: restarted safari and books works again lol
