@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)👋 hi, the package matrix-continuwuity is currently vulnerable to an attack where any server can forge certain events. the devs have currently fixed this in this commit: https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/commit/7fa4fa98628593c1a963f5aa8dbc3657d604b04712:22:09
@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)its being exploited in the wild which is afaik why the devs have kind of rushed it out12:22:54
@hexa:lossy.networkhexacan you send a PR that applies the patch?12:25:45
@hexa:lossy.networkhexa * n4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe): can you send a PR that applies the patch? 12:25:53
@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)the problem is that they have not released a full version, so it might be best to just use that commit as a patch to the version we currently use12:27:16

@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/472955 i havent tested it yet13:15:18
@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)and im kind of a noob at this so sorry if this way of patching an app is stupid 😄13:15:47
@me:indeednotjames.comemily

I don't think it's enough to just cherry-pick just that one commit.

There are at least 2 commits that fix validation: https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/commits/commit/7fa4fa98628593c1a963f5aa8dbc3657d604b047

It is paramount that you update to the latest commit from our forgejo as soon as you can. A full release will be following later today.
https://fedi.transgender.ing/notes/agj9mne73ias00d8

If anything, we should bump our version to the unreleased git commit.

@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)i merged them together, if i remember correctly13:50:33
@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)* i merged them together, if i remember correctly (im not sure anymore since it was on tmpfs and i OOM'd trying to compile it)13:51:03
@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)i managed to compile it13:51:16
@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe) the 7fa... commit contains // Ensure the sending user isn't a lying bozo which i also have in my commit 13:52:13
@me:indeednotjames.comemily #security-discuss:nixos.org would be a better fit for this discussion. 13:52:30
@magic_rb:matrix.redalder.orgmagic_rb joined the room.14:05:41
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]oh i was about to bring that up here14:08:48
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its] should note that tuwunel is also affected: https://github.com/matrix-construct/tuwunel/commit/dc9314de1f8a6e040c5aa331fe52efbe62e6a2c3 14:09:43

@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/commit/b2bead67ac8bc45de9a612578f295e5b7fc6c2b5 https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/commit/7fa4fa98628593c1a963f5aa8dbc3657d604b04714:24:03
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its]

im aware of the commits, i read them :)

i just couldnt tell exactly from the diff file

14:24:31
@n4ch7:n3831.netn4ch723hr3r (putting stuff in your name is cringe)yeah sorry im kind of a noob and when i patch stuff for my overlay i just put everything into one diff >_<14:25:24
@emma:rory.gayEmma [it/its] i tend to use git format-patch start..end -o . (example: https://cgit.rory.gay/Rory-Open-Architecture.git/tree/packages/overlays/matrix-synapse/patches)
though we're veering quite offtopic here lol
