Hey, I'm Frederic.

I write about my discovery of the information security field over at https://gebir.ge.

GEBIRGE··on Foliate: Read e-books in style, navigate with ease
Foliate is really good with the security aspects of rendering ebooks. See the author's foliate-js library project (https://github.com/johnfactotum/foliate-js?tab=readme-ov-fil...).

I've recently written an article about the dangers of ebooks. Maybe it's of interest to some: https://gebir.ge/blog/every-trick-in-the-book/

Hey, that‘s my article - thanks for submitting. :^) If there are any questions, please let me know.
GEBIRGE··on Jellyfin: Free software media system
That's really the key point here: Trusting the people you share the server with.

Jellyfin is kind of binary in that regard. Once you're authenticated - no matter the privileges - you can reach a lot of places. I've written about this recently, if anyone's interested.

Like others have mentioned, you should probably only expose the server to a trusted group of users (ideally not directly on the Internet).

GEBIRGE··on Peanut Butter Jellyfin Time
I get where you're coming from. Naming vulnerabilities has been discussed ad nauseam, so I won't even bother trying to add something. Both sides have valid arguments.

Personally, I just really like puns :D.

Come on, what's not to like about the current name? It even ties in with the demo!

Though PolyPwn is a winner, too.

Thanks, my spell checker won't help with that :^).
