Just found out that it is no longer possible to straightforwardly write HTTP/1 requests by hand on the #terminal.

Modern #Apache will reject #HTTP 1.x requests where the line endings are not CRLF, and as far as I know it's not possible on #Linux to type a CR using the keyboard. Ctrl+M should do it in theory, but when I try, it produces LF instead of CR for some reason.

Is there by any chance a way to make the Linux #console (or #KDE #Konsole) produce CRLF when I push the Enter key?

Threat Infrastructure Uncovered Before Activation

Between November 2024 and April 2025, a set of domains and servers impersonating an Iraqi academic organization and fictitious UK tech firms were tracked. The infrastructure, while dormant, exhibited characteristics similar to APT34 (OilRig), including shared SSH keys, structured websites, and decoy HTTP behavior on M247-hosted servers. Key observations include the use of port 8080 for fake 404 responses, consistent SSH fingerprint reuse, and domains registered through P.D.R. Solutions with regway.com nameservers. The setup suggests deliberate pre-operational staging, offering defenders an early warning opportunity. Detection strategies include monitoring SSH fingerprints, HTTP response patterns, and domain registration behaviors.

Trying to come up with my own little self-hosted #http #authentication #daemon to work with #nginx' "authentication request" facility ... first step done! 🥳

Now I have a subset of HTTP 1.x implemented in #C, together with a dummy handler showing nothing but a static hello-world root document.

I know it's kind of stubborn doing that in C, but hey, #coding it is great fun 🙈

Mastodon-Client-API

Auch wenn sich im #Fediverse viel um #ActivityPub dreht und hier durchaus auch eine #Client-Schnittstelle skizziert ist, nutzt #Mastodon eine eigene Client-API, die (zumindest teilweise) auch von anderer fediversaler Serversoftware unterstützt wird (z.B. #Friendica, #Firefish, #Mammuthus).

Diese #API (application programming interface, eine #Schnittstelle zur #Programmierung von Anwendungen) dient Apps und Clients dazu, entsprechende Funktionen auf einer #Instanz durchzuführen. Diese API ermöglicht die Entwicklung von Apps wie #Tusky, #Fedilab & Co.

Man kann diese API auch nutzen, um Konten etwa (teil)automatisiert zu betreiben.

Oder Statistiken zu sammeln... oder... oder... ;-)

Die API ist soweit öffentlich dokumentiert und steht frei zur Verfügung.

Allgemeine Dokumentation zu #Mastodon (auf Englisch):
https://docs.joinmastodon.org/

"Getting started with the API":
https://docs.joinmastodon.org/client/intro/

Wer mit dem Gedanken spielt, die API zu nutzen, sollte sich mit #HTTP, #JSON & Co. anfreunden können. Und Englischkenntnisse sind in diesem Bereich grundsätzlich von Vorteil...
