lol apparently there's a .properties tld and java will helpfully look for your .properties file as a URL in some cases now

there's a few spring config files that are registered already as domains, and a few real fuckin' juicy ones I can think of that don't appear to be registered yet

You know, it kinda made sense to type in a dot-com tld but who the hell is going to go on the radio or a pa system or whatever with a dot properties URL?

of course, someone will probably misspell properties or whatever but it doesn't matter because no one's typing that poo poo in anyway... they'll probably just google it and go to the first link which will be a phishing scam, placed on top thanks to unchecked malicious advertising

I have a lot of points to make and I will make them later.
Not that aiohttp is the most popular framework out there, but it certainly doesn't help when you're forced to use it on the same day that https://docs.aiohttp.org and https://aio-libs.org get domain squatted

not entirely sure. i know spring is involved, but it's second-hand from someone else who dealt with it at their work just recently (when it unexpectedly took down production lol) so idk

isn't that the sort of thing that was at the heart of the log4j fiasco? i.e. java brains thinking that it's cool and good to fetch some stuff from remote hosts and deserializing it

Yep. Log4j wasn't a bug, it was working as designed (fetching and eval()ing code from a remote address). It was just a case of the design being utterly counterproductive for anyone who doesn't still live in the 90s.

it's a good thing no modern languages handle dependencies by letting you import from random git repos at compile time

I think node.js is the most stereotypical implementation of "downloads 10 dozen libraries at compile time, most of which contain like two lines of code or are just a bunch of constants for hex color representations, and 3 of which get deleted and subsequently squatted upon by a malware author every year"

i was actually talking about go...


on the bright side, go does have decent dependency verification at this point, but from the start it was literally import from rando git repos

log4shell had multiple levels. the primary problem was that the lookups feature parsed the formatted log message, not the format string, so it would recognize metacharacters in any data embedded in the message. i don’t think that was by design, just incompetence, though maybe someone had a kickin’ rad metaprogramming justification for it. the secondary problem was that one of the things you could put in a lookup was an ldap resource, which could do a remote class file load. that part was by design
