Hi

As of today, the site is running over SSL (HTTPS) for all traffic. This will ensure that communication between your browser and server cannot be intercepted by any bad guys.

When a site is running over a non secure connection (HTTP) and you access the site over a public wi-fi connection, your password and other personal information could potentially be captured from a "man in the middle" attack. There is also the danger of a session hijacking.

I suggest everyone updates their passwords.

Happy Lushing

I take it this does not include profile pages which give you the old, '...this page includes other resources which are not secure...'?

Basically, you Irish Cunt, if you look at where you'd type "www.lushstories.com" you should see a green padlock in the left hand corner. Here's a hint, it should be at the top of your page, near the top of your computer/laptop screen.

That being said... thanks for the laugh... you do know how to make an American girl giggle.

He has made the secure as can be seen by the padlock up in the address bar.

When used at a public wifi spot such as Starbucks it's not secure and your info can be stolen by hackers.

If you see a page without the padlock let him know and he will fix it.




I think that's all of it

so... believe it or not, i am more clueless than Steph... does this mean we need to create a new password?

You can’t truly call yourself peaceful unless you are capable of violence. If you’re not capable of violence, you’re not peaceful. You’re harmless.

Hi Gav

Great update! I have signed on (obviously), and the main page and the forum show the green padlock (which I presume ensures it is safe/secure). On this thread, typing in a reply, the bar shows the padlock not green with a yellow yield icon.

Is that secure?

On my own member page, the padlock with the yellow yield icon is showing. I just tried Buz's page ... still the yellow yield icon. Gav's page (yup, yours) shows a green padlock ....

so .... what does this mean, Guru-Gav?

Van

PS .... I changed my password, and it still is a yellow yield icon over my padlock.

The reason some profiles are showing the yield icon is probably because they are displaying images linked from outside servers.

Now that I think about it, that's probably the same thing that's happening with the "post reply". I imagine if I tried hard enough, I could find a thread with no external images in the preview, and it would show green. Odds are that someone in the thread has an externally linked image in their sig line that's causing the yield icon.

EDIT: That makes no sense. It would show the yield when viewing the thread in that case. What was I thinking? But anyway, back to my original post.

Doesn't really explain the "friends" page, though. Only thing I can think of there is that some of the avatars are external links, even though that's not common practice in forum software. They're typically copied and stored locally even when taken from an external source *shrug*

Only glanced at the gold page and didn't see anything obvious that would cause it.

Ok all the holes have been plugged, there should be no SSL exclusions except for profile pages with a grooveshark player. I spoke with grooveshark today, they are aware of the issue but couldn't provide a date as to when it might be fixed.

Youtube seems to have some issues lately. Don't think it's Lush-related.

The risk is low, I think its safe to leave grooveshark for now. I'll monitor the situation, hopefully they can stream the content securely very soon.
