Or you could disable all custom_components. But updating is probably better.

#

I've upgraded three boxes in the last half hour, including my production host, no issues

Production went from 0.117 to 2021.1.2 😬

I assume the docker image was updated etc. That's what I use

My thermostat is one of the custom components, so it is quite important for me.

#

Would a move from Home Assistant 2021.1.1 to Openhab 3.0 be an upgrade or downgrade?

left marsh
#

Wrong place to ask I think 🀣

The update is very unlikely to cause custom components to stop working.

No bias thanks πŸ˜‰

Anyways, I have backups

It was more tongue in cheek, I think the consensus is these days that HASS due to popularity is more versatile thanks to large support and community base.

#

But certainly openhab still has some benefits and a user base.

Mainframe still has a userbase

Well, with all the knowledge i have built around Homassistant, i would not move to another platform and start over again

The "makemoneyfromhome.ru" integration seems to have a security flaw?

and these things are open source, probably could be fixed if needed’

Fair enough

I will say that my upgrade from 0.117.x went smoothly

  1. 😱 That must be, like, 24241 releases ago!

fingers crossed,
i skipped since 0.117 due to the auto discovery..
no way around now 🀣

#

Admittedly with all my Z-Wave and Zigbee on other hosts, there's not a lot of critical external integrations left πŸ˜„

forest edge
#

Disclosing the vulnerable custom components could alert a potential attacker of the problem, and allow them time to attack users who are not quick enough to remove them. So does this update only impact those components and future ones and none of the others?

which seems pretty relevant

Please try to avoid speculation as far as possible.

I have to fumble in the dark sometimes when they update cards just to get the card back to working when there is no explicate mention of what changed to break what. most annoying thing ever so forgive me being hesitant on updating on something we know nothing about lol

And I woulnd't really trust that either

would you be able to elaborate whether an entirely-private hassio would be vulnerable?

because mine is not reachable from the internet.

(as are most, I'd guess)

Mine is reachable, but only to webhooks

#

been running the same components for over a year now so I know i don't have whatever is being brought up but updating and having to fumble in the dark to fix what isn't broken would annoy me greatly

I'd rather not say. You're probably better of updating anyway - the latest release is always the best so far

alright, so that's a yes πŸ™‚

mine setup works fine after the upgrade, wonderful

well i will update once i know what was changed lol

It's even in the release notes πŸ˜‰

I’m always upgrade too. I was just concerned this could be breaking change for some components

i only read what frenck posted earlier and been busy to catch up on anything posted after that

Those were the days. Right around card-gate too.

and what frenck posted was vague

just look at the git commits

card-gate didnt hit me so bad, still were using groups and such

low harness

Card-gate 1 or card-gate 2?

hearty depot

missed probably cardgate 2 completly

low harness

First one was when npm went down and all custom cards relied on that for LitElement.

Second was when the configurations were frozen, and any card that tried to change it broke.

if i was feeling more adventurous i'd try writing it myself lol

there goes my dreams of cheap wifi switches that dont beacon out to strange places

these treatlife switches are $16, next cheapest z wave is $30 but it does have a repeater.

just gotta be patient with deals. $25 for zwave switches happens

or $10 zwave bulbs

A lot of stuff still has ESP82xx chips though, and those can always be serial flashed

There's also that

heavy ginkgo
#

yeah, i think the tuya is moving quite a few to realtek

but the wiring of the two i put in before flashing is a cluster of wiring that i dont even want to attempt to try a do over again :p

#

in the future, ill probably just serial flash if i can

#

i'm at a place where im sure many people are, trying to decide on if i should stay with wifi or go mostly z-wave

#

the mesh wifi is pretty well covered in the house, where z-wave is currently just a zooz stick

barren hound
#

two words. Radio spectrum.

heavy ginkgo
#

yeah...

barren hound
#

Zwave operates on 900ish mhz. wifi on 2.4 and rarely 5 for iot. Zigbee operates (mostly) on 2.4. bluetooth? 2.4.

#

hell, your microwave operates on 2.4

heavy ginkgo
#

i do realize there will be far less interference with z-wave

barren hound
#

also, lower freqs have better range, signal through tougher obstacles (like walls)

heavy ginkgo
#

but also, if my house has enough EMF will it become more energy efficient by diverting solar radiation? πŸ˜›

i may move some things over to z-wave, i do like some of the water sensors

You can however follow the blog post

sturdy jewel
#

i don't get it. it just says to update. I've received that notification 3 times

#

couple of emails, discord notifications

scenic radish
#

Also it's only some custom integrations (at least per the blog post)

which integrations?

#

it says

#

"certain custom integrations have security issues and could potentially leak sensitive information. "

#

which ones?

clever mortar

And that's it

Nobody is saying right now

#

There's not, so stop asking

clever mortar
#

It'd be in the blog post anyway πŸ˜‰

deft pewter
scenic radish
#

They're not saying which ones and what the specific vulnerability is because then people with malicious intent could potentially take advantage of it

that makes sense

#

btw, is there a mechanism for persons who have HA installed but are not registered on the foruns (or on this Discord server) to be notified of these urgent updates?

#

just curious

deft pewter
#

Yeah, watch the website.

sturdy jewel
#

hah

clever mortar
#

The blog has an RSS feed

odd kindle
#

There's also a "update" notification you can get right in HA

sturdy jewel
#

i have a friend like that but I called him

deft pewter
clever mortar
#

Well, they should subscribe to either the RSS feed or join Discord and sub to #announcements

sturdy jewel
#

I'll tell him to register on the community website that will ensure he receives the emails at least

odd kindle
#

I'm sure this have been discussed already but as far as I understand this isn't actually a direct problem with HA. So unless you're using 3rd party code you haven't read it should still all be good.

fiery sorrel
#

didn't they post on twitter or something ? i had someone that isn't here or on the forum that already knew when i read the annoncement

odd kindle
#

I got an email a little while ago

fiery sorrel
#

didn't, but that's nice

sturdy jewel
fiery sorrel
#

i haven't upgraded yet, and i am using custom component, but i'll do next morning.

sturdy jewel
#

yep, also got it on twitter

fiery sorrel
#

the fact that they don't specify which also help reduce the chance of an automated attack

clever mortar
#

This only applies to third party - custom - integrations. If they're using things listed on the HA site itself it doesn't apply

#

Tuya is a core integration - this does not apply

odd kindle
#

@clever mortar there's 3rd party Tuya plugins as well

clever mortar
#

Hence my first statement there πŸ˜‰

#

Also, the sky isn't falling. If it takes you a day or two to update I doubt the world will end...

#

I'd not be shocked if >80% of HA's userbase is months outdated

night zodiac
#

Anything that is loaded from custom_components. If you use HACS, installs go to custom_components as well. This is why they said you can change the name of the custom_components folder until you update.

sturdy jewel
#

i know, i'm really only preocupied with the users that install and have no mechanism to be called back for these more urgente security updates

odd kindle
#

From all I can understand it's not really a HA issue either. People pulling in 3rd party code is always a risk

tawny orchid
#

I try to stay up to date. just never install the .0 version

clever mortar
#

The thing is, there's been things like this before - this isn't the first

odd kindle
#

@sturdy jewel honestly, if you install 3rd party code and don't follow along you probably should rethink that.

wet pilot
#

HACS has its own blacklist for that reason

clever mortar
#

Many folks just don't update, ever. They'll always be outdated, and vulnerable shrug

#

Assuming you update HACS πŸ˜‰

sturdy jewel
#

is that 3rd party ?

odd kindle
#

I've updated to the latest version now AND moved out the two custom_components I'm using.

#

@sturdy jewel 3rd party code is anything that is being installed outside of the normal HA.

I'm sorry if this was previously answered or not (I tried looking above but I can't see it specifically).

only connection from the frontend to the backend is via the rest api

though we're debating writing a dialect for sqlalchemy and then open sourcing it

night zodiac
#

ahh, I try to use postgres or mysql for most things and only really use nosql if I don't think I will know the data structure in the future

#

even then, I might make a relation between the RDM and the nosql, lol

wet pilot
#

everything we do fits well in the document world

night zodiac
#

I pretty much always know my data structure so I can just stick to RDB and migrate if needed

#

lucky me

wet pilot
#

its great when that works

night zodiac
#

I use elasticsearch for our logging aspects

wet pilot
#

but we're storing a lot of json data so it didn't make sense to break things out

night zodiac
#

gotcha

#

I have been trying to think of a fun integration I need for HA for days but everything is already implemented that would motivate me

wet pilot
#

haha

night zodiac
#

the devcontainer setup for HA is premium

#

I like it a lot

wet pilot
#

yeah, that's really slick

#

motivated me to make one for my dayjob

night zodiac
#

yeah, my next project has to have something like that

#

well, that

#

but JS

hushed basalt
#

I used to use devcontainers but I'm just using wsl remote now

#

But for portable dev environments it's pretty sweet

#

To be honest package.json does a lot of the work for js environments

#

I've found js to be a lot less hassle than python for setting up the environment.

night zodiac
#

I'm using WSL remote at the moment and love it

hushed basalt
#

Make fun of node_modules all you want, but it works

hushed basalt
night zodiac
#

yeah, haha. I used wsl1 and have been using it nonstop since wsl2

hushed basalt
#

Wsl2 is great

#

Especially when I learnt to not use the windows filesystem in wsl remote

night zodiac
hushed basalt
#

Which is shitty that it's the default behaviour

night zodiac
#

hrmm, I don't remember it being default behavior

hushed basalt
#

You know what shits me off. When i hit windowsKey and type terminal

wet pilot
#

the new term is pretty great

hushed basalt
#

50/50 chance it brings up cmd.exe

night zodiac
#

haha, I put it in my start bar

hushed basalt
#

Same but I like using the super key to launch things haha

#

Then I don't have to touch the mouse

night zodiac
#

fo sho

wet pilot
#

super + 3

hushed basalt
#

But I love things that have different outputs for identical inputs

wet pilot
#

would launch it for him

hushed basalt
#

Hmm. True

night zodiac
#

very nice. I didn't use that before but will now.

hushed basalt
#

I do like commands that are transportable to any computer though

#

That has it installed of course

night zodiac
#

that is why I want to do the devcontainer stuff

#

I want to have like the full env everywhere I go ezpz

hushed basalt
#

I found it a bit abrasive,

#

Having to rebuild the container and reload the window all the time

night zodiac
#

maybe I will save it for the project after next then

wet pilot
#

it can be but doesn't have to be

night zodiac
#

hrmm, I don't imagine I'll have to change the container much after it is done

wet pilot
#

depends on how it is configured. In most cases you only rebuild the last layer

hushed basalt
#

I just sync my vscode settings to gist and lean on .vscode settings

wet pilot
#

but you could also pre-build the container and host it on dockerhub

hushed basalt
#

Yeah it's just local build and I try and structure the layers,

wet pilot
#

i had to hack the python one because one of our required packages had some wonky requirements

night zodiac
#

I don't even go anywhere at the moment

#

not sure why I am worried about devcontainers for the projects only I work on

hushed basalt
#

I mean you could put your requirements outside the container, but then you run the risk of config drift

#

If you're not prudent

wet pilot
#

it was container base os issues

#

if you pick the python3 base image in vscode you get alpine and that package required py3.6 on deb buster

#

pita

hushed basalt
#

Yeah alpine is a false economy

wet pilot
#

i generally like it

#

but every so often it can be a pain

hushed basalt
#

For a dev environment though, size isn't that important

wet pilot
#

meh, might as well keep your container close to the prod env. our product is containerized already

hushed basalt
#

I understand the reasoning behind that

#

But to be honest I haven't had huge benefit from that

#

I try and KISS for dev,

#

Then staging/prod is handled by CI and they can be in parity with each other with dispoable cloud environments

#

This mirrors my thoughts

wet pilot
#

i get that and i actually have everything locally for me. But getting that set up is a pita and some of our content devs are too scruby to be trusted

night zodiac
#

the barrel plug that came with this power supply was trash. It was super hot and everything else was cool to the touch. I bought another one off of amazon and nothing is warm at all. much bettah

scenic radish
#

Was there a short somewhere with the barrel plug?

#

Speaking of which, I let the magic smoke out of something yesterday. It was already dead before though so I guess it's now super dead

night zodiac
#

no, it was one of the ones where you screw in the wires

#

I bought some proper ones that don't have any screw pinch shit

clear ferry
#

Awwww yeah

#

Screw in those wires

#

You dirty boy

night zodiac
#

lol, the new ones are much better. soldered and heat shrinked

clear ferry
#

Mmmm woke up to -18 on my temp gauge, that means -25 down by the road

night zodiac
#

I thought you checked voltage drops

clear ferry
#

Let me check

last cedar
#

πŸ˜‚

#

208V = - 25C

clear ferry
#

It is actually high now, because most people are sleeping

night zodiac
#

my UPS reports voltages in ints intead of floats and gets wild on teh graph

last cedar
#

Do you get more than 230V during the summer?

clear ferry
#

213v
