    Solved List of domains using Cloudflare DNS (potentially affected by the CloudBleed HTTPS traffic leak)

    Post by Jakovec12 February 24th 2017, 3:51 pm

    Regarding a recent vulnerability exposed in Cloudflare's (a traffic proxying site) infrastructure. For months now, there has been a vulnerability that allowed data transmitted between Cloudflare's proxy servers and the target server to be exposed.

    Affected sites can be found in this list (forumotion is on list as well):
    https://github.com/pirate/sites-using-cloudflare

    Sources:
    https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1139
    https://blog.cloudflare.com/incident-report-on-memory-leak-caused-by-cloudflare-parser-bug/
    https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/5vu3yn/cloudbleed_seceurity_bug_cloudflare_reverse/


    Should people change passwords from your site and ours that has been made by forumotion?

    Password change is not necessary due to the nature of this kind of problem. This is more of a communications vulnerability rather than a vulnerability of accounts being hacked.

    The largest of problems, especially for Forumotion, might by automatic HTTPS rewrites; however, the table at the bottom of the Cloudflare blog you linked to shows that this entire vulnerability has been solved:

    Hello,

    don't worry about this Cloudflare vulnerability: we use Cloudflare as a NS on some creation site (and only that) and the vulnerability affects Cloudflare proxy service (therefore not used by us).
