About 2 years ago I move from web/saas startups to a very large data company. It's been an unusual experience. I work in some cases with some very intelligent and qualified people,…

>There'd be a certain irony being able to reverse shell anyone doing an nmap scan. Every TV / movie hacker has known about this.

Cors is hard to understand because the browser is protecting you and the server from malicious code that the developers are not expecting to be there. Its a hypothetical threat you…

The old trope of forgetting your wedding anniversary cheat code.

If it follows the redirect I would redirect it to random binary files hosted by Amazon, then see if it continues to not require any further action
