My favorite part of the entire page:

> So what's the point of this website?

> Poking fun at how ridiculous infosec clickbait vulnerability reporting has become lately. Just because it has a flashy website or it makes the news doesn't mean you need to care.

> If you've read all the way to here, congratulations! You're one of the rare people who doesn't just retweet based on the page title :-)




In case anyone was confused by this comment: it's not a hoax/joke site. It's a real bug; just a low-severity one that's intentionally overhyped.


Heh, I couldn't get through it because of the toxic levels of self promotion and was about to get very ranty about it all.


Maybe you missed the disclaimer at the top?

“CVE-2021-30747 Should you be worried? Probably not.”


Yes, I got that from the top comment here.
