[13:12:41] <janrinok> I've added an Ed's Note to the second Android 0-day exploit story. The link to Maddie Stone's comment appears to have broken and now points to an empty page. If anyone finds where it has gone please replace it.
[13:13:27] <janrinok> Other sources point to the same comment and they have also broken. Trying to track down an original that still works
[13:54:26] <janrinok> Seems to be browser specific

[23:34:23] <Bytram> janrinok: for posterity's sake, would help if we had the link copied here
[23:34:44] <Bytram> then, I'd suggest looking for it on archive.org aka The Internet Wayback Machine
[23:37:43] <Bytram> This link appears to be the one: https://bugs.chromium.org
[23:37:44] <upstart> ^ 03Issue 1942 - project-zero - Project Zero - Monorail
[23:37:47] <exec> └─ 13Issue 1942 -
[23:41:03] <Bytram> Noscript blocked a buncha things; selectively enable domains... finally ended up with a blank page... but, when I did a "Select all" and "view source" saw 3 *DOZEN* scripts being loaded!!!!?!
[23:41:32] <Bytram> That said, Ublock origin was *still* blocking a couple scripts.
[23:43:39] <Bytram> Found 2 entries on the internet archive wayback machine. (1) https://web.archive.org
[23:43:40] <upstart> ^ 03Issue 1942 - project-zero - Project Zero - Monorail
[23:43:43] <exec> ├─ 13Wayback Machine
[23:43:43] <exec> └─ 13Issue 1942 -
[23:44:13] <Bytram> when loaded, saw that ublock origin blocked 24 (!!!!) "things" on that page.
[23:44:56] <Bytram> tried disabling blocking on the wayback archive...
[23:46:24] <Bytram> select all / view source.., saw same mess as before
[23:47:30] <Bytram> Same result with the other wayback link I found:
[23:47:32] <Bytram> (2) https://web.archive.org

[23:48:11] * Bytram tries loading page in IE instead of Pale Moon
[23:50:26] <Bytram> don't need to select all first as I did in Pale Moon
[23:50:50] <Bytram> View source shows same as I saw in pale moon; 3dozen+ scripts and no text displayed.
[23:51:27] <Bytram> Am exhausted atm; will let someone else run with it from here if they are interested.
[23:51:51] <Bytram> Would help if there even a snippet of text that appeared in the original that could be searched for.
[23:57:13] <Bytram> Anyway, was a long day after a short day and a longlong day the day before....
[23:57:18] <Bytram> gonna make a bite to eat
[23:57:21] <Bytram> afk
