Closed caryoscelus closed 1 year ago

caryoscelus commented 1 year ago

the author of this project has been made aware of this inside the 0net a long time ago , so i'm putting this out mostly for information of those who find this project

https://github.com/ZeroNetX/ZeroNet/commit/ac70f83879ae649460be08119b5decaf4b26a09e (fixing important security vulnerability reported by @imachug) was copypasted from https://github.com/zeronet-conservancy/zeronet-conservancy/commit/855b23a84bec65c3dc56954bd69a46e90da805c4 without attribution or reference to where the code is copied from . this is a clear case of GPL violation , which is easy to fix yet the maintainer does nothing to do so

@canewsin thanks for fixing in git , however since you also distribute binaries and sources w/o git history , for compliance you also need to reflect changes and their authorship in CHANGELOG
