From 0f540b95386e43ac28d482d6824aff860e644065 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Alexander A. Klimov" Date: Wed, 8 Jul 2020 16:58:04 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Replace HTTP links with HTTPS ones: 9P FILE SYSTEM Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: If not .svg: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If neither `\bgnu\.org/license`, nor `\bmozilla\.org/MPL\b`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.
