[Savannah-help-public] [sr #106304] Bug spam from logged in spammers?
Follow-up Comment #38, sr #106304 (project administration): We just got a great deal of spam. One of the spammers 1) found he needed to type 451 and 2) was greedy enough to spam a lot of items at once. I just changed the question, let's see if this works. At my day job, I recently implemented TextCHA-based solutions for MediaWiki and MoinMoin. On most websites spam stopped (can't tell for those that restricted anonymous edits though). However, one of them continued to receive spam, but much less. AFAICS one spammer is sending a mass-posting from multiple IP sources at once, and succeed depending on which TextCHA is asked. Since the questions were asked in French, I assume that there's one French-speaking human in the spammer's team that answered at least one of the questions I had setup. It still spammed the website after I changed the 2 questions (though most of the posts were blocked). I just switched to an unguessable question (i.e. a password), and the spam stopped, which means it's not a flaw in the MoinMoin antispam. One counter-measure that spammers might use would be to present the questions to normal web users in exchange of porn material (this is not new, that also worked for Captchas). Multiplying the questions, and ask them at random, might help fighting spammers, because they'll have a hard time listing all the possible TextCHA questions (especially if not all of them are asked on any given day). ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106304 ___ Message posté via/par Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/

Re: [Savannah-help-public] Re: Bison GPG keyring not updated
Hi Joel, Sorry for not replying before. I set a new GPG key in my Savannah profile a few days ago. I just rolled a new release of Bison, I guess you already emailed sysadmin with the new key, since there is bison-2.4.1a.tar.gz on alpha? so I'd like my key to show up in Bison's keyring on Savannah, but it hasn't yet. I don't know how the savannah keyrings are maintained, if they are an automatically-updated copy of what sysadmin has for alpha/ftp.gnu.org (evidently not), or something else. (Nor do I know what difference they make to anything, for that matter.) Best, Karl

Hi Karl, On Thu, 4 Feb 2010, Karl Berry wrote: Sorry for not replying before. No problem. Thanks for the reply. I set a new GPG key in my Savannah profile a few days ago. I just rolled a new release of Bison, I guess you already emailed sysadmin with the new key, since there is bison-2.4.1a.tar.gz on alpha? If that's the same as ftp-upload, then yes, I emailed it to them, and they referred me here concerning the Savannah problem. so I'd like my key to show up in Bison's keyring on Savannah, but it hasn't yet. I don't know how the savannah keyrings are maintained, if they are an automatically-updated copy of what sysadmin has for alpha/ftp.gnu.org (evidently not), or something else. When I set my original GPG key (now expired) on Savannah, I got the impression it was automatically propagated to Bison's keyring. I'm not sure why it isn't happening now. I had searched the archives and found someone else reporting a similar problem: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/savannah-hackers/2007-02/msg00042.html Sylvain Beucler fixed this apparently by enabling GPG support. I don't see any switch for that in my Bison admin page, but maybe I missed it. Maybe a Savannah admin has to do it. (Nor do I know what difference they make to anything, for that matter.) Although users can obviously download the keys from the key servers, I think some download from here. At least, I've done that in the past. Anyway, the keyrings should be up-to-date or removed, in my opinion.
[Savannah-help-public] [sr #106304] Bug spam from logged in spammers?
Follow-up Comment #39, sr #106304 (project administration): I haven't run across the new spam yet. Have we attracted more creative spammers or are they still doing many lines of URL GarbageGarbageGarbage? More generally, how difficult would it be to implement a hold-for-moderation mechanism? Something to allow more aggressive content filtering without risking losing legitimate comments? Ideally, it could be configurable per-project or even per-item-that-takes-user-submissions. So a quiet project that isn't getting spammed might be able to just bypass moderation entirely and let any posts not blocked by site filters (like the TextCHA) through, while a heavily attacked, highly-visible project might even be able to make their own filter rules, possibly even on a per-communication-tool basis, while blocking posts that look too much like spam entirely. It could actually be as simple as having means for the system to assign a non-zero spam score to a new post if certain conditions are met and allowing to vote posts as not-spam. To prevent spammers from gaming the system, keep a log of votes (to allow tracing spammer accounts that are used to abuse the voting system) and give each user two votes per time interval (choose day, week, hour, whatever, ideally based from statistics on how often real users vote posts as spam now)--the first vote in an interval counts in full, but each subsequent vote counts half of the previous vote. After an interval, both votes are restored. Project admins would need the ability to zero out a post's spam score (assuming that a project admin can be trusted not to want their own project spammed) and perhaps tracker admins should be given some similar power. Are the spams varying much, or are there correlations between them? If the spammers are just posting the same thing over and over, perhaps a circular buffer (in some sense) of the most recent posts (site-wide) could be kept and incoming posts checked for similarity against other recent posts, with the probability that the new post is spam (and thus its initial spam score?) being proportional to how closely it resembles other recent posts? This would also have the advantage that such pseudo-blacklisting would expire as posts are replaced in the buffer. Essentially, it would be a time-span-limited originality filter. Since legitimate posts to trackers in two different projects (or even two different bugs in the same project) are likely to be fairly different, and rather unlikely to contain the same URLs, this could alternately take the form of a rolling URL blacklist, perhaps with the most likely to be joe-jobbed (but trustworthy) domains (such as debian.org, gnu.org, kernel.org, fsf.org, etc.) whitelisted to prevent spammers from getting (too many) legitimate URLs into the blacklist. This should rate-limit spam to a manageable fraction of posts overall. I like the idea of content-based filters more than CAPTCHAs simply because spammers have found ways to get other people to solve CAPTCHAs for them (I believe this is how Gmail's CAPTCHA was broken), but if spammers can't post their garbage over and over, no matter what it is or how many CAPTCHAs they solve, we can hopefully make spamming Savannah painful enough that the spammers go elsewhere. ___ Reply to this item at: http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?106304 ___ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
