Shit I used it access the interdimensional cable TV.
The linked blog post explains about the vulnerability, I thought it was quite interesting.
I didn’t even realize 0.0.0.0 was a valid address to enter into a browser! TIL.
On Linux it is just a catch all address (listen on all interfaces)
Elsewhere it doesn’t do anything since I don’t believe it is part of the networking standards
Yeah I’m familiar with that part, I just meant in context of a browser being able to connect to it.
What is the use case for 0.0.0.0
Just in case you want to do nothing, nowhere in particular.
I just wish they’d stop blocking http requests on lan addresses honestly.
Do you have standard Firefox with default options that does this? This has not been my experience.
You could try out with a new profile if it works out the same.
I just tried to use the Developer version. With no addons.
Pretty sure you have an addon doing that, because Firefox doesn’t.
Firefox Developer with no addons
Firefox doesn’t block http at all
Try the Firefox Developer version. No addons.
Could you share a link for me to read up more on this?
I was trying to use the Firefox Developer version. Just straight up refused.
Fine by me. I self-host a lot of stuff but never used 0.0.0.0 for browsing, so I just disabled it here to try it out.
seriously. I like the federation but people way overuse the spoiler tag or nsfw or whatever. I usually skip over but had to vent. Oh uh. ankle in this one. better make sure no one gets fired over it.
Did you mean to comment on this post? It’s not showing as NSFW to me
It shows an 18+ tag for me too, and the image is blurred. I assume it’s because of our host software. I’m on kbin.melroy.org (Mbin), and the original commenter is on moist.catsweat.com (also Mbin).
wrong post?
