The last set of comments is from 2024. These have not been addressed. The fact that it is possible to stream without auth is just bonkers.
The entirity of jellyfin security is security via obscurity which is zero security at all.
“As a cybersec researcher”, the limp wristed, hand wavy approach to security should be sending up alarm bells. The fact that it doesn’t, means that likely either, you don’t take your research very seriously, or you aren’t a “cybersecurity researcher”.
“Thank you for this list. We are aware of quite a few, but for reasons of backwards compatibility they’ve never been fixed. We’d definitely like to but doing so in a non-disruptive way is the hard part.”
Is truly one of the statements of all time.
You can’t say that a solution is no security at all when it requires time and intelligence to bypass.
It is at least 0.01 security.
Effort or no, if an attacker can reasonably bypass it, it’s not secure. That’s why software gets security patches all the time, why encryption/hashing algorithms can fall out of favor, and why quantum computing can be pretty fucking scary.
No system is secure.

The votes are not on your side
I didn’t say it’s secure, I just said it’s security.

Surely you understand how a stupid response to a silly statement like it is one of the sayings of all time can be appropriate in humorous situations, right?
I understand that you did not find it funny, but I hope that you can understand that it was my intention to be funny, and therefore a serious response is disproportionate.

It definitely was lol

When “hundredths fractions of security” fails to get a laugh, I know I’m in the wrong group of people.
I thought you were being serious as well. I’ve dealt with enough people who would genuinely make that argument so I assume nothing.
