Hi, I'm currently working on a LilyPond web service, which allows safe embedding into any wiki system, because the service is decoupled from the wiki, can even run on a different server. Anyway, preventing DoS attacks has nothing to do with LilyPond itself, as it depends on the running script, ulimit, jail etc.

Hi,


I'm wondering if the Wikitex extension for Mediawiki is a secure alternative to the LilyPond extension.


I read these pages:

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2009-11/msg00152.html

http://wikisophia.org/wiki/Wikitex

(as you can see, there is an Edit button... it is open to public modifications)


and I came to the conclusion that Wikitex does not allow DoS attacks.

Can anyone tell me if I'm right or not?


I thought the problem was on the LilyPond side.

I guess Wikitex prevents the problem somehow.


I'm going to give a talk about LilyPond next week and I'd like to have my mind clear about these issues.


Thanks,

Federico
