Hi!
I just wanted to let everybody know that I'm about to apply a patch to our AUR setup that fixes some CSRF vulnerabilities. This will probably break most (all?) AUR helpers (mis)using the AUR HTML interface. AUR helpers, that only make use of the RPC interface, won't be affected.
I recommend using the web interface until the affected programs are fixed. burp 1.6.9 deals with this. Coming soon to an [extra] mirror near you.
Cheers, dave *buuuurp*. Tasty! Does this break just AUR uploaders, or AUR install helpers too i.e. cower, aurget etc.?
It shouldn't break download helpers. More generally, everything that only reads/downloads data from the AUR (especially using the RPC interface) *should* not be affected. Tools that include features to flag, vote, notify, write comments, submit packages, edit accounts, etc. need to be patched.
