Federal News Network: The hidden vulnerability: Why legacy government web forms demand urgent attention. “Government agencies face a security challenge hiding in plain sight: outdated web forms that collect citizen data through systems built years — sometimes decades — ago.

Today, @liberaforms released a new version including our work on its Dockerfile.

As explained on the project blog:

"The Dockerfile has been improved in many ways, but most notably, it now uses a multi-stage build. As a result, the final image now only includes the runtime dependencies, and not the development ones any more. This led to a significant size reduction of ~43%! It also helps reduce the attack surface as development tools that can be used to craft exploits, such as gcc, are now absent from the final image."

This is a first step of a global enhancement regarding the containerisation of LiberaForms. Our next objective is to remove the use of the root account for running the service.

Dear web form creators!When you provide a multiline <textarea> input field please do not squash my fondly edited paragraphs into one big mess of a single line.Why this is so awful you ask?- Bullet point lists get completely obliterated.- I intentionally split my text into meaningful paragraphs and you remove that context.- It’s extra dumb if you don’t add single spaces between those joined linesKind regardsYour users

Curious what y’all call this type of form input. I have my own name (won’t share just yet as to not taint the answers), but I rarely find that everyone uses the same name for it.

While I’m primarily targeting UI designers/developers, I’m happy to see answers from anyone.

What do y’all call it?
