'Blogs' tab is sick again

shabaz

Hi,

The 'blogs' tab is generating just three pulsing circles again. I've tested on home and mobile internet connections, with two different browsers, and I see the same problem.

    can you not explain more about what the issue is?

    A piece of content that is being viewed, is being assessed when it's being viewed by protection mechanisms.

    Those protection mechanisms, are flagging it as a false positive against whoever views it.

    The viewer then gets punished by the protection mechanisms, because it's incorrectly flagged as a false positive, even though it should be fine.

    Dudley raised this with the vendor of the protection mechanisms because it shouldn't be behaving that way.

    There's not a lot of decent fuzzy logic in these things it seems, in a world of dynamic IP addresses for example, the vendor might say "hey, just whitelist that IP address" and you turn around and go "Have you seen home IP addresses? when are they ever static?" which points out how silly they are.

    Similar to false positives in content, "Oh just whitelist that content" Yeah, but, how about you change how it identifies the content instead?

    And so it then takes time for the vendor to fix it, and while that goes on, Dudley removes or disables the 'module' in the protection mechanism to prevent the problem, all the while making the site a bit vulnerable, unfortunately, while it's removed.

    Dudley had tried to change the settings to prevent it from triggering a false positive, sadly that didn't work on this occasion, and the symptoms of it ended up being pretty bad for anyone browsing the site.

    We've had a new version of the SQL injection protection module in place for a while now. Can you confirm you haven't seen any issues with in the past week or so?

    I've been watching out and I can't see any false positives in the logs, but I didn't see them before until you highlighted that you were having problems at which point I found you Slight smile
