Found the error Not allowed to load local resource: file:///etc/passwd
while looking at infosec.pub’s communities page. There’s a community called “ignore me” that adds a few image tags trying to steal your passwd file.
You have to be extremely poorly configured for this to work, but the red flags you see should keep you on your toes for the red flags you don’t.
Do you know why this happens or how to mitigate it? Thanks.
This is a Lemmy bug, it should be fixed when we upgrade to 0.18.1 hopefully.
I’ve heard it can happen if you have multiple tabs open but idk if that’s true or already fixed.
