<p>0bin allows anybody to host a pastebin while welcoming any type of content to
|
|||
|
|
be pasted in it. The idea is that one can (probably...) not be legally entitled
|
|||
|
|
to <a class="reference external" href="http://www.zdnet.com/blog/security/pastebin-to-hunt-for-hacker-pastes-anonymous-cries-censorship/11336">moderate the pastebin content</a> as he/she has no way to decrypt it.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>It’s an Python implementation of the
|
|||
|
|
<a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/sebsauvage/ZeroBin/">zerobin project</a>. It’s easy to
|
|||
|
|
install even if you know nothing about Python.</p>

<h2>How it works<a class="headerlink" href="#how-it-works" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>When creating the paste:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|||
|
|
<li>the browser generate a random key;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>the pasted content is encrypted with this key using AES256;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>the encrypted pasted content is sent to the server;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>the browser receives the paste URL and add the key in the URL hash (#).</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
<p>When reading the paste:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|||
|
|
<li>the browser makes the GET request to the paste URL;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>because the key is in the hash, the key is not part of the request;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>browser gets the encrypted content et decrypt it using the key;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>the pasted decrypted content is displayed and code is colored.</li>
|
|||
|
|
</ul>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Key points:</p>
|
|||
|
|
<ul class="simple">
|
|||
|
|
<li>because the key is in the hash, the key is never sent to the server;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>therefor it won’t appear in the server logs;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>all operations, including code coloration, must happens on the client;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>the server is no more than a fancy recipient for the encrypted data.</li>
|
|||
|
|

<li>automatic code coloration (no need to specify);</li>

<li>pastebin expiration: 1 day, 1 month or never;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>burn after reading: the paste is destroyed after the first reading;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>clone paste: you can’t edit a paste, but you can duplicate any of them;</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>code upload: if a file is too big, you can upload it instead of using copy/paste;</li>
|

<li>0bin use several HTML5/CSS3 features that are not widely supported. In that case we handle the degradation as gracefully as we can.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The “copy to clipboard” feature is buggy under linux. It’s flash, so we won’t fix it. Better wait for the HTML5 clipboard API to be implemented in major browsers.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>The pasted content size limit check is not accurate. It’s just a safety net, so we thinks it’s ok.</li>
|
|||
|
|
<li>Some url shorteners and other services storing URLs break the encryption key. We will sanitize the URL as much as we can, but there is a limit to what we can do.</li>

<li>Request throttling. It would be inefficient to do it at the app level, and web servers have robust implementations for it.</li>
