I love every time you download some dev environment for some piece of hardware and it's a modified version of eclipse that was forked 10 years ago.

My second favorite thing is when you download a dev environment and it's a custom written thing that stores all source code files as a single XML file making source control impossible.

Aramoro posted:I mean what else could 'uses the permissions of the user who generated the link' mean? I assumed it meant it used his permissions _to access the linked resource_. Not to do anything else. That is, if John's access to the resource is revoked by the owner, all the shareable links he generated stop working. As opposed to a more naive implementation where the resource _itself_ is marked as "accessible to anybody who knows this url", and it keeps working even after John is fired.

Feisty-Cadaver posted:I have made some poor decisions in my life, but good golly that's something else I should say I did not write either of these systems, just worked on them. It was kinda the fascinating result of a whole bunch on contractors, pretty much everyone there was a contractor, and hard delineation between the teams. The Database cluster was garbage but the core application team could not talk to them at all, so the txt file buffering system was invented because otherwise they could not guarantee writes to the database.

Progressive JPEG posted:haven't hit that specific issue with asio but I did find that teardown is the single hardest part to get right  AWS load balancers hitting the app on mass every second for health checks, each one causing a small leak per connection. I was expecting the razor tooth pattern early as AWS was not following HTTP/1.1 keep alive at all but surprised it is happening now at max usage. TCMalloc may be making things funky

That is, if John's access to the resource is revoked by the owner, all the shareable links he generated stop working. if there's less than 50 keys total it implies to me that it's just a plaintext login for a given user but maybe its not that bad

gonadic io posted:I've been thinking about this for my dumbass website. The entry point after twitter oauth redirect is butt.com/twitter-redirect?apikey=123&API-secret=456 i don't think your apikey or secret are supposed to be in the url like that? It should be like butt.com/twitter-redirect or w/e and that endpoint takes the auth response from twitter and handles it. but yes once you get that response and determine it to be a successful authentication you issue a cookie and store the auth token in the session details for the user. then you can use the token in future calls to twitter. However, if you only need to make a single call to twitter to grab user details you can do that during the response handling and then throw away the token.

NihilCredo posted:probably demonstrating my tp status here, but isn't this basically what google docs and similar web apps do when you choose 'create shareable link' to a document? generate an auth token tied to the user who created the link, embed it in the link, when someone clicks the link the token is checked for non-revocation? seems pretty safe to me Sadly, that's exactly what I meant. Fortunately, I don't think anybody in our current crop of users is savvy enough to recognize the token for what it is or try to use it for anything malicious. I'd definitely rather fix the issue now than after we open the application to a much larger set of users. I'm planning to change it so the tokens are single-use and don't just hang around for an hour, but I just know some user out there is relying on the current ability to share links, so I'm gonna have to rework some things so sharing links becomes less attractive (like switch the GET to a POST). Ideally, the token exchange would happen entirely behind the scenes and we'd just pipe the vendor application response straight to the user. I'm trying to get the stakeholders to conclude this is the best idea, despite the extra development time.

well that was an afternoon wasted trying to establish what the cname for our domain controllers is as the answer is nobody knows including the team that supports them, however it was irrelevant because instead of manually performing a bind to a controller to do a global catalog lookup I could have just pulled the dns forest info from the current context and used that to get the gc ofc every other result for "ad search across multiple domains" returns useless info because literally everybody seems to have gone down the same route as me of "write process to handle one domain, discover it doesn't work for anyone in other regions during testing, fiddle with connection strings then give up and post about it online" also pretty sure our AD environment is a clusterfuck of two or three different variations that may or may not have any commonality between them depending on what you query

domainname.tld should point to the list of domain controllers. if you want global catalogs you can lookup SRV records for _gc._tcp.domainname.tld. Or better yet just use System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory which has ez tools for handling all of this for you.

The entry point after twitter oauth redirect is butt.com/twitter-redirect?apikey=123&API-secret=456 that url looks real bad It should be something like butt.com/twitter-redirect?code=xzy then you do a post request from your server to twitter to verify the code, which gives you an access token to get stuff from twitter.
