Apologies for messing with code after the fact, but some OOPisms are just too
much for me to stomach. This should just be a function of two arguments. No
objects required.
Yes, we're now reparsing the whitelist on every call, but this function is
called only a handful of times.
When a constructor calls an overridable function, it may allow an attacker to access the "this" reference prior to the object being fully initialized, which can in turn lead to a vulnerability.
Application -> getLocalPath
ProxyPanel -> get
AbortPanel -> get
RotatingBackgrounds -> makeEmpty

Allows users to build customized Getdown JARs which can only talk to whitelisted hosts. This can be useful for very security-conscious organizations which want to distribute Getdown internally as a standard application bootstrapping mechanism, but want to ensure that it can only be used for internal applications.
This is an adaptation of the whitelist proof-of-concept discussed on the mailing list, adjusted to use the new Build class.

This method was apparently deprecated 12 years ago, when GetdownApp.main( ) was added. The immediate motivation is to eliminate some of the security noise around this method being a source of untrusted data, but in a more general sense it also probably makes sense to clean it up after not being used for so long.

Because we are running cmd.exe here, it is possible to use a malicious URL to execute arbitrary commands on the shell ( e.g. if url=http://my-patch-notes.com/" & del C:\ )

These types of denial of service issues are more common in web applications, but even here an attacker could tie up system resources indefinitely by specifying a very large start delay.

We can just keep Color in its ARGB format and have a single static brightness()
helper. Reactangle grew a union method which allows us to avoid AWT's Rectangle
entirely.
stringsToList() needed to return null for null array input, and I went ahead
and used Arrays.asList while I was in there because we know the provenance of
the input array, no one will mutate it.
This commit makes the UpdateInterface class immutable. The Config -> UpdateInterface initialization is moved to the UpdateInterface constructor. Default values for the fields are moved to the constructor as well. Instances of String[] are changed to List<String> and made immutable. Instances of java.awt.Rectangle (which is mutable) are replaced with a new immutable com.threerings.getdown.util.Rectangle class.
Although java.awt.Color is (sort of) immutable, it was also removed and replaced with a new immutable com.threerings.getdown.util.Color class, since it was the last dependency from the getdown core module to anything in the java.awt package, which means that when we migrate to Java 9+ the core module should no longer require a dependency on the java.desktop module.
The assertions and expected values in ColorTest have been verified against the corresponding java.awt.Color values.

It wasn't actually providing any value. Neither tools nor core have any special
dependencies. The code in tools operates on the same files, formats and data
structures that core/runtime code operates on. It is simpler to have them in
the same module.
I've long wanted to do this, but the launcher's use of all the samskivert UI
stuff made it onerous. Now that the launcher is a separate module, we can
remove the samskivert dependency in core (and tools), which simplifies things
and makes it easier to depend on core in a (future) self-updating app (when we
add support for that).
I don't want to pollute the com.threerings top-level namespace with a bunch of
getdown-foo artifacts, and grouping everything under the top-level project
name, even when that name is repeated for all the artifacts is fairly standard
practice.
- core: the main Getdown logic code
- tools: code to create digest.txt & patch files
- launcher: the standalone launcher/updater app
- ant: the Ant task for creating digest.txt files
This paves the way for a proper Jigsaw-ification of the Getdown code.
I may further factor code out of getdown-launcher and into getdown-core to
enable the use-case where an app embeds Getdown completely and does not use the
launcher app/UI. That will also make it easier to create a JavaFX UI and retire
the old Swing UI.
This also moves the obsolete applet code into a separate applet module, which
is merely a temporary holding area. It will be deleted in the next commit.
