Thanks to a serious security hole, I have taken down my photo album until I have a chance to upgrade my installation of Gallery. It should return to working order in a few days (It should be a brainless upgrade but I need shell access, which I don’t have here at work, and since I have plans tonight it might take a few days). Those of you running Gallery should also upgrade.
Mucho thanks to
chmod’ing your albums directory to 777 on fury is a pretty big vulnerability also :P
there’s nothing preventing anyone on fury from deleting _anyones_ photos. oh well.
Whatever… That doesn’t bother me so much. If one of you fuckers is that untrustworthy, then I have other things to worry about… But letting some random schmoe run hog wild over my photos is a different story.
The data gets backed up nightly too, so there really isn’t much to worry about in both cases.
Yep
That’s why I don’t use gallery. Nothing should require a 777 directory, ever. Poor software design.
I’m not too familier with any of the gallery setups, but doesn’t gallery just require nobody+rw?
the installation doc tells you to 777 the albums directory.
