The vulnerability gave attackers access to user accounts and admins accounts by stealing their session token.

Admin accounts on Lemmy have no access to emails, IPs or anything similar. The worst that could have happened is them using the admins capability of permanently delete stuff from the database which can be fixed with importing a backup.

Also, getting access to impacted users and admins private messages. But only for the users that viewed an infected post in an impacted instance.

actor_id is just the full url of an user. It has the username at the end. That's why I have censored it.

I don't think we were impacted. We don't have custom emoji.

I'm looking into this now. I might still clear everyone's session token just in case. Thank you for making this post.

This reads like some super shady mystery.

I have a plan for that, but it needs to be implemented in coordination with other instance admins. Anyways this post is just an example, not a rant.

That's not exactly my concern. The top users in that list seem to systematically engage in downvoting everything instead of simply blocking the community.

This does not seem to be mere stumbling upon something in All.

Yeah, I had to join something like 4 database tables together.

I'm interested in seeing if someone could develop a statistical model that could accurately detect certain behavior. I can query the data but I don't know enough statistics to really make use of it.

In case anyone's wondering this is what we instance admins can see in the database. In this case it's an obvious example, but this can be used to detect patterns of vote manipulation.

Burn the clothes. Only solution.

Not to mention that any problems caused by green bubble lack of compatibility are Apple's fault, not Android's.

May I ask if there will be a way to disable de NSFW blur?

New instances would have a lower voting weight by default.

No need to make all federation under a whitelist. It's enough to ignore votes from suspicious instances or reduce their weight.

This. It's only a matter of time until we can automatically detected vote manipulation. Furthermore, there's a possibility that in future versions we can decrease the weight of votes coming from certain instances that might be suspicious.

Oh, I've never heard about gray romanticism or gray gender before.

I'm perfectly fine with whatever it is they're referring to.

This used to be possible with Xposed framework, but I don't know if that is still a thing.

Woah I saw troll face and then I stopped seeing him.

It's this quote real? 😂

Can I have a link please?
