HTTPS? #1

Not really an issue with the software, but any plans on getting a certificate for the site to prevent MITM tampering with the converted extensions?

lemon-juice commented 9 years ago

No plans at the current address. We are looking for a new host for the converter and other related stuff so if that works out and the host turns out to have a free https option then it will be possible.

@lemon-juice If you want, I could set up the add-on converter at nearlyfreespeech.net and get it an HTTPS certificate. It would probably only be about $20/year (which I'm fine with paying for myself) and I could give you or anyone else access to the site as well.

By the way, does the converter use SQL for anything besides making a log?

It turns out my host has started recently offering free auto-renewing Let's Encrypt certificates so I've turned it on for the addon converter, no need to pay $20 :). Will it be sufficient? Considering the popularity of SeaMonkey I don't think any hacker would care about eavesdropping even unencrypted addon conversions :).

You can change converter links to https in AMO Browsing for SeaMonkey.

Yes, SQL is only used there for saving logs.

Thanks! I think it's nice to have https working, just in case someone tries it.
