Add a blocklist of URL's

Open PaulKinlan opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

There's probably some url sets that we don't want to allow to get posted such as googleplex etc. Might be good to add a configurable filter that stops us from doing something stupid.

Actually, rather than a URL list that could also leak things, maybe we should try and see if an external service can get a 200 response and similar data to what the extension sees.

Process: User Clicks submit. DevWebFeed host trys to fetch the URL, if it can't get access then it won't post it....

Good idea. Better to play it safe. If the crx makes a fetch without cookies and gets a 200 back, that may work. Although if someone is on a corp IP it may still go through....
