Hey #mastodon ,
hat noch jemand einen alten Kindle bei sich in der Schublade schlummern? Hätte gerne ein e-reader mit Hintergrundbeleuchtung (Paperwhite?) für die ganzen coolen public domain Bücher da draußen und ich dachte ich frage vorher hier, bevor ich etwas ersteigere.

Da Netcup die Server verteuert, und ich keine 19€ mehr im Monat zahlen will, und ehrlich gesagt Mastodon enorme Ressourcen frisst, zusätzlich zum Zeitaufwand, wird diese Instanz bald eingestampft.
Es hat leider noch immer keine Mitglieder angezogen.
2 neue Konten sind SEO/Spambots keine Menschen und haben auch nichts mit Göppingen zu tun.
Möglicherweise erlebt die Instanz eine Neuinstallation, aber dann kein Mastodon mehr.
Also, bald ist Ende Gelände hier.
Ich denke, niemand wird die Instanz vermissen.

GET-Based Open Redirect via '/web/%2F'
An unauthenticated Open Redirect vulnerability (CWE-601) exists in the /web/* route due to improper handling of URL-encoded path segments.
An attacker can craft a specially encoded URL that causes the application to redirect users to an arbitrary external domain, enabling phishing attacks and potential OAuth credential theft. The issue occurs because URL-encoded slashes (%2F) bypass Rails path normalization and are interpreted as host-relative redirects.
Impact
This vulnerability allows attackers to perform unauthenticated open redirects, leading to:
- Phishing attacks using trusted application URLs
- Credential harvesting via fake login pages
- OAuth authorization code interception when chained with login flows
- Trust abuse of legitimate instance domains
Affected users:
- All visitors, including unauthenticated users.

Fixed in v4.5.8

After receiving the news, I was devastated… I can't imagine losing my leg 💔 and living in such harsh conditions.
I suffered a severe leg injury, including a fractured femur, extensive tissue damage, and nerve damage with limited sensation and mobility. Tests revealed shrapnel inside my leg and a metal plate extending from my pelvis to my left knee with a significant fixation error. This requires urgent surgery to avoid amputation.
The pain is unbearable, and the hospital told me I need the operation within 10 days, or I may lose my leg 💔
🙏 $100 has been raised out of $600.
$500 remains.
I am the sole provider for my family… Please don't abandon me 💔
Your donation or even sharing this post could save my leg 🙏😭

@GrueneBeate interessant : "Mit der Einführung einer #Münchner #Transparenz-Satzung stellt die Verwaltung proaktiv Bürger-relevante Daten öffentlich zur Verfügung. Diese Grundsätze berücksichtigen wir auch bei den #SocialMedia-Angeboten der Stadt und ermöglichen die Nutzung auch von Kanälen des #Fediverse (z.B. #Mastodon)" https://www.gruene-muenchen.de/kw2026
So ein #OpenData Programm scheint in #Reutlingen noch zu fehlen https://gruene-reutlingen.de/ueber-uns/ trotz #Informationsfreiheitsgesetz https://www.baden-wuerttemberg.datenschutz.de/10-jahre-if/

Really love this session from @imanijoy and so glad she is devoted to building out the #UX and design for the open social web on Team #Mastodon. I love everything she said here, and the thinking behind each.
