Security flaws scanned by Veracode, including very high flaws

Hi @MarkusBernhardt ,

We scanned proxy-vole on Veracode, and found some very high flaws as following: image

Seems it's caused by rhino 1.7.7 and JNA 4.2.2. Would you like to take a look at them? or confirm with rhino or Veracode?

There are new version of JNA https://github.com/java-native-access/jna/releases, are you interesting in upgrading to its new version?

There are also new version of rhino https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/Rhino/Download_Rhino.

Vic,

looks like proxy-vole is dead. Markus doesn't answer here anymore except 'Yes, I want to do something, but have no time' for months now. Even pull requests are not fulfilled, it seems.   :-(    One word to Rhino: Having a look into the issues list you'll find efforts to replace Rhino to something else because of known problems and anavailability on Java 11 anymore.Again: No answer from Markus.

Looks like we have to find another library. It even would help if Markus declares the end of proxy-vole officially so that someone else could take it over.

Sorry, Guido

Thanks for your reply @gschnepp . Yeah, we may need to find another choice if this is no longer maintained.

#response_container_BBPPID{font-family: initial; font-size:initial; color: initial;} Vic, No, not yet unfortunately. That's the real drama. Proxy-vole would be fully OK with an active maintainer.Proxies are not my native business so I don't have enough knowledge on this to feel good with an own fork. Guido  Von: [email protected]: 25.

Markus doesn't answer any issues or pull requests here for nearly a year now. This project is dead, I think. Unfortunately. :-(

@gschnepp I'm using proxy-vole in my RouteConverter application and stumbled across some NullPointerException problems. And read your comments below the issues.

Are you aware of an accepted fork of proxy-vole? Or even willing to fork and maintain it?

cpesch avatar May 24 '20 10:05 cpesch

@cpesch No, unfortunately neither. Well, I'd like to be aware of a fork, but I don't know any. And I don't have enough knowledge of proxies in general to do it.

gschnepp avatar May 24 '20 11:05 gschnepp

https://github.com/akuhtz/proxy-vole/commits/master seems to be a promising fork. I've integrated some commits from other forks into it.

Release is published here: https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/bidib/com/github/markusbernhardt/proxy-vole/1.0.6-RC2/

Sounds promising! At least it's more living than this here. Thanks!
