Blackberry Mobile App Trac being targeted for hacks

We’ve noticed an influx of new entries in the BlackBerry TracTrac Trac is the place where contributors create issues for bugs or feature requests much like GitHub.https://core.trac.wordpress.org/. that are hacky/spammy. Example:

https://blackberry.trac.wordpress.org/#no1
https://blackberry.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/263

Can we blockBlock Block is the abstract term used to describe units of markup that, composed together, form the content or layout of a webpage using the WordPress editor. The idea combines concepts of what in the past may have achieved with shortcodes, custom HTML, and embed discovery into a single consistent API and user experience. this from happening for the existing bad accounts posting and also prevent it from happening further? The BlackBerry app is also dead (for several years now) so we can freeze the entire site or get rid of it entirely.

Make GSOC trac read-only

It’s getting pentested: https://gsoc.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/386

Can we make it read-only, and if not, then maybe back it up and shut it down, or put it behind proxy auth or something? It’d be nice to preserve the content for history, but it’s probably not worth maintaining anymore, and definitely not worth cleaning up after pentesters.

Grant default theme commit to @ianbelanger

I need to get theme commit access for @ianbelanger to manage work on the default themes. Our most recent two theme committers have had to step back and they worked with him directly to do some training/hand off. I will make sure to share the following documentation with him as well:

  • https://make.wordpress.org/community/handbook/wordcamp-organizer/first-steps/web-presence/computer-security-best-practices/
  • https://make.wordpress.org/core/handbook/best-practices/when-you-become-a-committer/
  • Not a post, but the welcome/onboarding chat as has been passed down to me by @desrosj @mikeschroder and @aaroncampbell.

This is a #prio2, but would be great to get sorted for work on WP5.2.3 and WP5.3.
