> But with ahab the question assumed a modified aspect. considering that with two legs man is but a hobbling wight in all times of danger; considering that the pursuit of whales is always under great and extraordinary difficulties; that every individual moment, indeed, then comprises a peril; under these circumstances is it wise for any maimed man to enter a whale-boat in the hunt?

"The described behavior is a functionality limitation that does not affect the security and privacy of our product" they said.


It's a nice find, but I still fail to see how it is a vulnerability or a security issue.


I posted a case to HackerOne with the intent to warn against this behavior and with the weakness type "Business Logic Errors". Please, read in my report section "Impact" and my answer about the potentional impact of the reported behavior.

But, as maxltv clarified, it's not a policing tool but an authoring tool and described use of the product violate their TOS. My case is relevant if clients use it as a policing tool.

I'm mainly interested Youtube functionality, and wanted to check if it was well maintained.

The developer was listed as Laurent Bachelier (https://github.com/laurentb). Searching him up, he unfortunately seems to have committed suicide a year ago. Bizarrely with some links to right winged political groups? (First result on google from "Laurent Bachelier")

My deepest condolences to the programmers of this project who have lost someone who I assume was a close friend and co-worker.
