    No, look at the associated unit test: https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/blob/c6eb186064091c79f4...

    If that test fails we could serve PHP source code instead of having it be evaluated, a major security flaw.

  • How to securely reverse-proxy ASP.NET Core web apps
    3 projects | dev.to | 4 Apr 2024
    However, it's very unlikely that .NET developers will directly expose their Kestrel-based web apps to the internet. Typically, we use other popular web servers like Nginx, Traefik, and Caddy to act as a reverse-proxy in front of Kestrel for various reasons:

    I think that recompiling with upgraded Go will not solve the issue. It seems Caddy imports `golang.org/x/net/http2` and pins it to v0.22.0 which is vulnerable: https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/6219#issuecommen....
  • Show HN: Nano-web, a low latency one binary webserver designed for serving SPAs
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 25 Mar 2024
    Caddy [1] is a single binary. It is not minimal, but the size difference is barely noticeable.

    serve also comes to mind. If you have node installed, `npx serve .` does exactly that.

    There are a few go projects that fit your description, none of them very popular, probably because they end up being a 20-line wrapper around http frameworks just like this one.

  • I Deployed My Own Cute Lil’ Private Internet (a.k.a. VPC)
    8 projects | dev.to | 18 Mar 2024
    Each app’s front end is built with Qwik and uses Tailwind for styling. The server-side is powered by Qwik City (Qwik’s official meta-framework) and runs on Node.js hosted on a shared Linode VPS. The apps also use PM2 for process management and Caddy as a reverse proxy and SSL provisioner. The data is stored in a PostgreSQL database that also runs on a shared Linode VPS. The apps interact with the database using Drizzle, an Object-Relational Mapper (ORM) for JavaScript. The entire infrastructure for both apps is managed with Terraform using the Terraform Linode provider, which was new to me, but made provisioning and destroying infrastructure really fast and easy (once I learned how it all worked).
  • Automatic SSL Solution for SaaS/MicroSaaS Applications with Caddy, Node.js and Docker
    1 project | dev.to | 29 Feb 2024
    So I dug a little deeper and came across this gem: Caddy. Caddy is this fantastic, extensible, cross-platform, open-source web server that's written in Go. The best part? It comes with automatic HTTPS. It basically condenses all the work our scripts and manual maintenance were doing into just 4-5 lines of config. So, stick around and I'll walk you through how to set up an automatic SSL solution with Caddy, Docker and a Node.js server.

    Even if it may be simple, it doesn't handle edge cases such as https://github.com/caddyserver/caddy/issues/1632

    I personally would make the trade off of taking on more complexity so that I can have extra compatibility.

    One of the most heavily used Russian software projects on the internet https://www.nginx.com/blog/do-svidaniya-igor-thank-you-for-n... but it's only marginally more modern than Apache httpd.

    In light of recently announced nginx memory-safety vulnerabilities I'd suggest migrating to Caddy https://caddyserver.com/

    > I always tell these people to just sign up for a password manager and they always resist and say no. I must be missing something obvious.

    Maybe they don't want to be relying on a random third-party for all their passwords?

    Rather than getting them to sign up for a password manager, what about getting them to install a password manager? I use https://www.passwordstore.org/ - it encrypts your passwords with GPG, and shares the storage via a Git repository for synchronisation between different machines.

    That way you can delegate the password handling to another program, e.g. a password manager like pass(1) (https://www.passwordstore.org/) or some interactive graphical prompt.
  • Passit: Open-Source Password Manager
    5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 19 Jan 2024
    I want to move to something compatible with https://www.passwordstore.org/ - an open standard for keeping your passwords in a folder encrypted with OpenPGP.

    The problem is that I'm nervous to give an unknown Android app and browser plugin total control of my passwords and access to my github account when I don't have time to review it's code properly. I have a bit more trust ing the command line tools, but I'd like to be sure that more people are looking at the code before I trust my life to it.

  • Ask HN: Best Password Manager without cloud login?

    > Create a system or pattern based on url or brand and mentally hash it into a password.

    Doesn't sound very secure. Also when you realize that you anyway have to trust cryptography, I believe it starts making a lot of sense to have an actual cryptographic key and encrypt it with one good random password you learn by heart.

    I use pass https://www.passwordstore.org/, which encrypts my passwords with my GPG key, which comes from my Yubikey, which I unlock with a password. That means that I only need to remember one password, and it feels a lot more secure than your pattern based on url or brand.

    If you want portability and simplicity, there's a project called simply pass that uses standard *nix utilities (and git, I believe) to manage passwords from CLI.
  • Bitwarden Broken in Linux

    0. Pass is just text files encrypted with gpg. I needed just one password on one work computer, where I had my gpg key, but not all my passwords. Decrypted the file and that was it.

    1. There are plugins and web clients: https://www.passwordstore.org/#extensions

  • Bitwarden Adds Support for Passkeys
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 1 Nov 2023
    I've been incredibly happy with https://www.passwordstore.org/ for years. The data store is a file hierarchy, with the files themselves encrypted with GPG. Sync is via git. TOTP support with a plugin.

What are some alternatives?

When comparing Caddy and pass-import you can also consider the following projects:

traefik - The Cloud Native Application Proxy

vaultwarden - Unofficial Bitwarden compatible server written in Rust, formerly known as bitwarden_rs

HAProxy - HAProxy documentation

gopass - The slightly more awesome standard unix password manager for teams

envoy - Cloud-native high-performance edge/middle/service proxy

Bitwarden - The core infrastructure backend (API, database, Docker, etc).

Nginx - An official read-only mirror of http://hg.nginx.org/nginx/ which is updated hourly. Pull requests on GitHub cannot be accepted and will be automatically closed. The proper way to submit changes to nginx is via the nginx development mailing list, see http://nginx.org/en/docs/contributing_changes.html

rofi-pass - rofi frontend for pass

RoadRunner - 🤯 High-performance PHP application server, process manager written in Go and powered with plugins

KeeWeb - Free cross-platform password manager compatible with KeePass

Squid - Squid Web Proxy Cache

Pass4Win - Windows version of Pass (http://www.passwordstore.org/)
