Re: Why many "Load Bug xxx" JIRA bug by Tim?
Might be a good idea, but it's out of scope for us, but Infra would need to do this. Maybe leave a comment on INFRA-21268 or create a new INFRA ticket for it? -Matthias On 1/7/21 9:14 AM, Adam Bellemare wrote: > If we do look to enable Captchas, I think it would be important that we > avoid corporate offerings (eg: Google's). > > > On Thu, Jan 7, 2021 at 12:12 PM Govinda Sakhare > wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> If it is possible, we should configure/enable Captcha to prevent automated >> spamming attacks. >> >> Thanks >> Govinda >> >> On Wed, Jan 6, 2021 at 11:30 PM Matthias J.

If we do look to enable Captchas, I think it would be important that we avoid corporate offerings (eg: Google's).

Re: Why many "Load Bug xxx" JIRA bug by Tim?
Hi, If it is possible, we should configure/enable Captcha to prevent automated spamming attacks. Thanks Govinda On Wed, Jan 6, 2021 at 11:30 PM Matthias J.

Re: Why many "Load Bug xxx" JIRA bug by Tim?
This was a spamming attack. The user was blocked and the corresponding tickets were deleted. (Cf. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-21268) The "problem" is, that anybody can create an Jira account and create tickets. It's in the spirit of open source and the ASF to not lock down Jira, to make it easy for people to report issues. The drawback is, that stuff like this can happen. It's easy to write a bot to spam the Jira board... Because Jira is managed by the ASF infra-team, Kafka committers/PMC cannot block users and thus it takes a little longer to react to an issue like this, as we need to wait for the infra team to help out. -Matthias On 1/6/21 1:14 AM, M.

Re: Why many "Load Bug xxx" JIRA bug by Tim?
I had to register this as spam and block them. I couldn’t disable it from ASF JiRA. I’m also curious to know how/why such surge occurred.

Why many "Load Bug xxx" JIRA bug by Tim?
Hi, I received a lot of JIRA notification emails today, and they are all titled: "Load Bug xxx" by Tim. The bug content doesn't look like a real bug, they are like generated by automation. I'm wondering why that could happen? Do we have any way to delete them all? Thanks. Luke
