@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.nethttps://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2022-August/299924.html I'm tempted to say that's a security issue and ffmpeg_5 in nixpkgs should disable that protocol. Thoughts?21:22:28
@hexa:lossy.networkhexathey encoded a fallback ipfs gateway?21:53:08
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.netI've informally asked Arch and Alpine security folks about this and they generally agree and will look at patching it out on their side (Arch is not on 5.1 yet). Will send an RFC PR that disables the newly added ipfs:// and ipns:// support.21:53:13
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.netcorrect21:53:16
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.netbecause IFPS is too much of a pain to implement properly so they just translate to an HTTP fetch to a gateway... but they'll just use a random internet-hosted gateway if there isn't one on localhost or configured via environment21:54:24
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.net(not really "random" but picked without much consideration into any privacy concerns, looking at the discussion)21:54:56
@hexa:lossy.networkhexausers can always enable ipfs if they want to access that content21:56:01
@hexa:lossy.networkhexasame goes for all other networks, that are not directly reachable21:56:09
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa delroth: can you provide a PR? 22:01:58
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.nethttps://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/18635122:05:45
@hexa:lossy.networkhexauh, the proposed patch here still works with a local gateway22:08:58
@hexa:lossy.networkhexahttps://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2022-August/299924.html22:08:59
@hexa:lossy.networkhexathat looks preferable22:09:02
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.netI'd rather not cherry pick an unmerged patch that developers are still discussing? especially since the feature is less than a month old22:09:42
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.netcould be convinced otherwise though22:09:53
@hexa:lossy.networkhexalooks simple enough imo22:10:41
@hexa:lossy.networkhexaat least with the patch the intention is clear and it makes sure we revisit the situation when the upstream situation changes22:11:30
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa * at least with the patch the intention is absolutely clear and it makes sure we revisit the situation when the upstream situation changes22:11:38
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa * at least with the patch the intention is absolutely clear and it makes sure we revisit the situation when the upstream situation changes (aka the patch stops applying)22:11:48
@delroth:delroth.net@delroth:delroth.netSGTM, I can do that22:11:57
