RE: Update: MyEtherWallet DNS Hack. Does it affect you / safe to use?

in #bitcoin6 years ago

MEW (My ETHER Wallet) has been restored! :)

Thank you Michael for the very detailed and helpful post!
Safety for all. More info on Reddit:

Please note:

  • You can use https with IP by assigning SSL certificates to IP range but it is not done usually! The problem is that the IP is not static and it could change and there is no way for you to know what the IP is at all time as they could be using DHCP. DNS is actually doing the translation for you. Best way is to NEVER ignore the message that prompts that the "Certificate is not valid", unless you are doing internal test with a locally generated certificates for test.
