The effects of the next Drupal security hole should be entertaining.
- Subgun 17y agoabsolutely. I bet Vegas is taking bets on it
- sprice 17y agoHttp headers say 'Server: White House' I would guess all that is publicly accessible is static and being served from Squid or Varnish. Good luck taking advantage of any Drupal security hole.
- marcusestes 17y agoMost likely Varnish, which is made possible by the Pressflow Drupal distro, which among other things, cleans up the http header problems in Drupal 6: http://fourkitchens.com/pressflow-makes-drupal-scale http://fourkitchens.com/pressflow-makes-drupal-scale Much of Pressflow's codebase was backported from Drupal 7, so its advantages will be available to all Drupal sites after the stable release of version 7 sometime early next year.
- sprice 17y agoThe change to Drupal 7 that make better http headers (now in Pressflow 5 & 6) will allow, afaik, for any reverse proxy, but varnish is definitely one of the easier to use. All Drupal 5 and 6 sites can use these features by substituting the Pressflow core. Now I'm wondering how the US government will contribute back to the Drupal project.
