if the people running it are saying things that mean they don't know the difference between encryption and hashing it has to be a troll

...right?

no, you count. and no matter how good it was for us not to read it, it must have hurt you to hold that post in

there are truly no winners in the posting game

seriously don't be sorry. that's what it's called and it's not racist. someone got upset because they didn't know what the words meant. this is not a "it means bundle of sticks" situation.

you're obviously correct but do you really think that a usb cable attached to a carabiner will help whistleblowers in a meaningful way?

what would be the risk in appending the 2fa token to the password like that and lopping it off when checking it?

there isn't one. it's not any different from submitting the two items in separate fields. like, it'd be possible to screw up the implementation but only in "screwed up string handling/validation" ways that aren't relevant to the data being a password/2fa code

How much of a shitshow is it to sign JWTs with a plain old pub/priv key pair, no CA involved? As you may notice, I'm an idiot who has no idea what is going on.

that's fine from a security standpoint, sort of. the actual problem becomes one of orchestration, because everything consuming the JWT needs to trust the keypair. how do you scale that to multiple signers?

1. add another key to a hardcoded list of trusted keys
2. copy the keypair around
3. trust another keypair that signs the keys that actually do the signing

(1) obviously eventually falls down with scale, but can get you pretty far (2) is terrible (3) is a rudimentary CA

and of course you have to have a decent rotation and revocation workflow figured out for when a dev inevitably uploads a server's private key to github

Shaggar I get that you're trying to distinguish "broken encryption" from "send to Apple, Apple flashes the firmware to bypass authentication," but it ends up being a distinction without a difference when you think through the realistic ways in which each would be implemented

I switched from redhat and Slackware to gentoo in college (early 2000s) and the difference was amazing. not performance, but having a package manager that actually functioned. rpm hell was real and terrible, so I always ended up building from source anyway on redhat, and Slackware didn't do binaries in a meaningful way (they had a few packages but...yikes). being able to use emerge was like a whole new world

if I were smarter I would've just started with Debian or something but 🤷‍♀️

i had to enable voice callback MFA for a single co-worker in a Duo account because the guy has a fuckin iPhone 5 in TYOOL 2020 which he can't install the app on. i deliberately disabled voice callback and SMS OTP in the account because they're less secure than push MFA smdh

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you’re referring to as mods, is in fact, GNU/mods, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, GNU plus mods.
