epidocs / epita.it Goto Github PK

I just noticed that there is no LICENSE file anywhere in this repository. It would be a good idea to add one, for various reasons, including the fact that, as of right now, making derivatives, forks and PRs is "illegal" (since the default license in French law and probably in the US as well is that you (@matiboux) put a "All rights reserved" upon the content).

I would suggest a Creative Commons license like the CC-BY 4.0 or a software license like the MIT license

The actual logo for the assistants tiles is outdated and need to be updated.
The new link is this one : https://assistants.epita.fr/logos/yaka2025_logo.svg

The console complains about a lot of 403 errors. All of them seem to come from Facebook page logos.

Today, on "EPITA's websites are broken"

This subsequently breaks the icon in EPITA.it

Of course, this is just a temporary outage, but it might be worthwhile to consider moving all logos to a separate CDN because of how often the websites break.

I could see potential copyright or trademark issues with hosting those on a separate CDN though, but it would increase the reliability (and probably loading speed) of epita.it.

The current menus for Community and Resources don't make much sense, especially with just two items which are relatively small pages in each. Moreover, they hinder the discoverability of their content, as I don't think people would automatically think about looking for documentation in the "resources" tabs, especially when people generally only care about the home page.

In my opinion, these menus should be united into one bigger page each: one community (with the students clubs and community contents) and one "resources" (although a better name can probably be found somewhere) with both documentation and the EpiDocs resources in a single category (kind of like the current Documentation and Guides categories).

I don't know if that issue was clear -- writing those at 3 am is not easy

It is being used by Junior to host algo assignments (and is just a nice link to have overall). It should probably be given quite a bit of priority.

The address is https://gitlab.cri.epita.fr

The readme file doesn't give much info on how to build the website locally.

Should "epita.it" be pronounced "epita dot a-ee tee" (as in I.T.) or "epita dot eet" (as in the beginning of Italy)?

This is a very personal matter between @xiaojiba and I.

This link should be replaced with the following : https://zeus.ionis-it.com/

Typically, S2 projects are ordered alphabetically (at least they are for 2023).
Therefore, a revision should be made to epita.it/2025 in order to fix that.

Additionally, the text for Hell Riders is too difficult to read: either the text should be darkened, or the background resized.

Currently, the build system uses the legacy GitHub Pages workflow.

Todo:

• Upgrade to use Github Actions for building & deploying to GitHub Pages.
• Also configure GitHub Actions to build in PRs for checks.

rocketchat.cri.epita.fr will be used quite a bit for ING1, we should probably add it

I've been experiencing some problems with EPITA.it on both Safari iOS and macOS relating to how the navigation bar displays itself. So I trying to solve this problem by looking on the CSS code attached to the navbar class.

I found that disabling the display: flex; property in the navbar class in the bootstrap.css stylesheet line 3920 solves the problem both on macOS and iOS, and also doesn't alter the appearance of the navbar on other web engines (tested on Firefox and Chromium).

Below are some screenshots demonstrating the problem and its solution :

Now the challenge is to incorporate these changes to the CSS code since the Bootstrap CSS is loaded from the header...

https://devoups.online/ by @rissson is probably worth adding on epita.it (if he's ok with it, needs to have the community icon thing if added as this isn't official)

(Related to #10)

The Readme tells us that we need to run:

$ gem install bundler jekyll
$ bundle exec jekyll serve

This is wrong, as the project has no Gemfile. The real command is:

$ gem install jekyll
$ jekyll serve

The assistants tile fails to load at the moment because the YAKA theme has replaced the ACU theme.

YAKA logo (which is white)

Background color is #761637 with a light noise png thing

Many things will be moved to moodle this semester, including the ACDC 2023 pages, so the ACDC 2022 link should probably be replaced by a moodle link

RTFN is subject to XSS. Please remove it from the links ASAP. I have no way of reaching out to the creators, please link me a repo somewhere where I could report this properly. I have contacted one of the creators by e-mail, but RTFN does not seem to be actively maintained, so I do not have high hopes that this will get resolved in a timely manner.

Proof

• CRITICAL In the test fake newsgroup: https://rtfn.fr/news/rtfn.playground/1714620224716018/ (check your console after opening this page 👀). This is especially important as it is not monitored by the CRI and I doubt the maintainers are actively monitoring this newsgroup.
• CRITICAL In a regular newsgroup: https://rtfn.fr/news/test/1397/. This is less critical but still extremely dangerous as the CRI may take time to respond to a suspicious news in a less monitored newsgroup.
• HIGH In the newsgroup preview (not as much as an issue since users have to knowingly enter stuff there, but this can still happen when replying to a news)

What is even worse is that you have no way to know whether an article is malicious other than checking the page's source code, <script> blocks are invisible.

Although usernames are logged within RTFN's systems, it is very easy through social engineering to get a user's credentials. And even then, exploiting this vulnerability is trivial.

Quick calculations on the CVSS 3.1 calculator indicate a juicy High (8.5/10) severity, yummy!

The background color of the website is too bright and too blue, which does not make the website look very professional. It also blends in with some icons such as EPITA.fr or Dyjix

I think it would look much better with darker color schemes

The example above uses #162738 as the background color (kind of picked randomly)

Bitdefender reports epita.it as an infected website.
