Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

HAProxy is not affected by the HTTP/2 Rapid Reset Attack (CVE-2023-44487)
I wanted to try it out just now but hit a roadblock immediately - it cannot automatically obtain and maintain TLS certificates. You have to use an external client (e.g. acme.sh), set up a cron to check/renew them, and poke HAProxy to reload them if necessary. I'm way past doing this in 2023.

Why Haproxy is not build with PROMEX by default (Linux / BSD)
For context I think this might be useful: https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/blob/master/addons/promex/README

minexmr2.com updated to p2pool v3.1, monerod v0.18.2.0, and ready for Mar 18 p2pool (not monero) hardfork
I turn on 1 relatively cheap cloud server to process DNS, https and stratum connections and route them via haproxy to one of N miner servers described above.

HAProxy Security Update (CVE-2023-25725) - HTTP content smuggling attack
Full technical writeup here: https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/commit/a8598a2eb11b6c989e81f0dbf10be361782e8d32
- Request smuggling in HAProxy via empty header name
- Enormous session rate
- Update to haproxy 2.4.18 breaks WebDAV
-
HAProxy 2.7
With the recent discussions about memory safe languages, HAProxy is still surprisingly written in C [0].

35M Hot Dogs: Benchmarking Caddy vs. Nginx
It does not, because HAProxy does not perform any disk access at runtime and thus would be unable to persist the certificates anywhere. Disks accesses can be unpredictably slow and would block the entire thread which is not something you want when handling hundreds of thousands of requests per second.
See this issue and especially the comment from Lukas Tribus: https://github.com/haproxy/haproxy/issues/1864

Setting up a Homelab: Part 1 Proxmox and LetsEncrypt
A self-signed certificate was generated and used by Proxmox which will always generate a warning on the browser. I did not like seeing this when trying to work on my home lab. So, I started looking for ways to put a valid SSL certificate in Proxmox. During my research, I found that Proxmox could be made to integrate with acme.sh; a free SSL certificate generator powered by ACME(Let's Encrypt).

How to Build Email Server with Exim on Alma Linux 9
Next, we will install acme.sh, a command-line tool for managing SSL/TLS certificates. I prefer acme.sh over certbot, as it does not depend on the OS version. For more details about acme.sh, check its GitHub repo here.

Dehydrated: Letsencrypt/acme client implemented as a shell-script
A very relevant question. Acme.sh, a similar shell script ACME client, had a remote code execution problem last year.

Ask HN: What is your experience with ZeroSSL?
As a result, any certificates issued (or renewed) after Feb 8th will not work on older Android devices (< 7.1.1), unless the ACME client has been configure to request an alternate certificate chain. The "alternate chain" workaround will also stop working on June 6th.
I need to support these older Android devices so I am looking for alternatives. I have seen ZeroSSL mentioned a few times; it is also the default CA for acme.sh (the ACME client I am using nowadays) [2]. They have a number of paid plans but ACME certificates are free [3].
I'll be testing this over the next few days, but I would also like to ask if people here have experience with ZeroSSL (good or bad :-). Any feedback would be helpful.

Why Certificate Lifecycle Automation Matters
Huh, the environment variable thing was specifically aimed at acme.sh which rather arbitrarily changed the config value from ACMEDNS_UPDATE_URL to ACMEDNS_BASE_URL, never acknowledged this in a changelog and then silently failed after an automatic upgrade as recommended by the default install:
https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh/commit/2ce145f359...
It's also cleared out my .account.conf files when run on the suggested cron.
I've started using updown which also monitors my TLS certs simply because I no longer trust the process to work as documented.

The Bureau of Meteorology website does not support connections via HTTPS
It depends on your provider though. I can tell from experience that with OVH and their API, it's been easy to set up the automatic renewal via DNS verification. Apparently, the official client has support for the DNS API of 159 providers: https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh/wiki/dnsapi

I made a tool for automatically updating the current and next (rollover) TLSA DNS records with acme.sh and the Cloudflare API
For the few people here that happen to run a self-hosted email server with acme.sh for TLS key/cert generation and Cloudflare for DNS management, I have made a tool that i personally use to get a perfect 100% score on Internet.nl's email test.

How to get LetsEncrypt certs from PfSense/ACME to other machines? (automated??)
All of this is to say it's a decent amount of work to save the hassle of deploying certbot or acme.sh on the remote machines, pick your poison.

This is Fine
People wonder why I like using the shell-based ACME client like dehydrated (or acme.sh):
* https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=dehydrated
* https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh
Versus the official client certbot:
* https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=python3-certbot
A kludgy as very long shell scripts are (thought to be), I have a better chance of being able to go through all the code and understand it than a dozen(+) Python libraries.
What are some alternatives?
zstd - Zstandard - Fast real-time compression algorithm
letsencrypt - Certbot is EFF's tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt and (optionally) auto-enable HTTPS on your server. It can also act as a client for any other CA that uses the ACME protocol.
