Valentines Day in BASH
- kylek 13y agoCan we please not tell people to pipe things directly from curl to bash?
- srajbr 13y agopeople might have thought it to be malicious so i simple posted the link
- notacoward 13y agoExactly. There's no way in hell anyone should ever do that, even (thanks to DNS hijacking etc.) if they thought the file was something they wrote themselves.
- quchen 13y agoDon't we have a bit too much of a history with clicking/doing things on the internet with "love" in their names? Happy Friday by DigitalOcean, where trusting random people on the internets is company policy.
- salgernon 13y agoPipe it to more. That's just crap at the end after a lot of white space. What's sad about this is that it doesnt use curses and just reprints the entire terminal. curl http://artscene.textfiles.com/vt100/valentin.vt http://artscene.textfiles.com/vt100/valentin.vt And related.
- ryutin 13y agono love for my mac :-( [Fri Feb 14 14:35:37] -bash:~$ curl -s valentines.digitalocean.com | bash bash: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `newline' bash: line 1: `<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">' http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">'
- salgernon 13y agoWhy could't this just be a text file with curses escapes available via netcat? At least then it's limited only to known terminal exploits, rather than running whatever the hell it wants as you.
