Nice, tried the link and they couldn’t even set up https. Their target base won’t even be able to type that link out lol.

One random thing that really annoys me is that the site http://shakespeare.mit.edu does not properly forward http requests to https although they have an https version of the site.

Don’t you just need to toss an “.htaccess” file in the root?

No, an .htaccess file is specific to Apache HTTP Server… although some other web servers have integrated the format. However, most browsers now automatically redirect when an HTTPS version exists.

Funniest thing I’ve ever seen is the docs for Nginx do the same, no http to https redirection. I mean, you would hope that the maintainers for the biggest web server in the world would be able to manage that but somehow… No they don’t.

Apache tomcat had a stupid security issue. I recently did a HackTheBox about it. Here’s a write-up of the box https://medium.com/ctf-writeups/hack-the-box-jerry-write-up-6f045601315f

server serves a protocol on a port. I would rather it not include logic like that. turn off the http port of you don’t want to serve http.

Why does reading Shakespeare need to be over SSL?

SSL (or TLS nowadays) not only protects against surveillance but also guarantees the integrity of the data you send and receive. Without it, someone could spoof the response you receive. In practice this means injecting ads or malware or even worse: fake shakespeare!

If you are using Firefox, enable https everywhere setting and it fixes stuff like that

It will only give an error if there’s no https version that exists

Firefox has a built in setting that does the same. No need for the extension
