A sneaky demonstration of the dangers of curl bash - Lemmy.Radio

I set up a quick demonstration to show risks of curl|bash and how a bad-actor could potentially hide a malicious script. It’s nothing new or groundbreaking, but I figure it never hurts to have another reminder.

This helped a lot. I had no clue I could post the curl string in the URL bar of a browser to view the script. Thanks for the education!
You didn’t knew that the tool to handle URLs written in C (very creatively named C-Url) was handling URLs? It’s also written in C if you didn’t knew.
