I've got a little something for you all right here https://github.com/git/git/security/advisories/GHSA-r87m-v37r-cwfh

💕 Patch your Gits 💕

IDK but all those AI prompt injections like

seem to rely on in-band signalling which could have been avoided at design time by having separate channels for configuration and user input. But instead the 70s are calling and want their cereal whistles back

Sometimes you just need to look at the right spot and have a good guts feeling to find vulns.

Patch you Gits!

End of last year I had the big pleasure to work with @marver and @mumblegrepper in a code review of Git.

Here's what we got for you:

So I messed up the gotosocial instance TLS certs this morning, I ran into the let’s encrypt rate limit for threatactor.club because I forgot to configure a path for the certificates on the persistent volume, and for each new deploy it would pull fresh certificates .

The trick to recover was to first set a path and then manually fetch an EC cert for threatactor.club and another DNS name with certbot. This would not count against the rate limit of threatactor.club as a second name is added (see https://letsencrypt.org/docs/rate-limits/ ). Then I put everything in place on the persistent volume and got the instance back up.

So this threatactor.club is running #gotosocial on a shared VM with 256 MB RAM. I’ve tried something new and used fly.io to host it. Works like a charm so far, with all the rough edges gotosocial still has.

The setup is somewhat similar to what’s described by @mfa in https://madflex.de/setup-fedi-cress-space/. I might post the actual configuration later on.
