Security Ripcord


CutSec Broken RSS

I just noticed that my feeds were broken and I apologize to anybody who has missed my valuable contibutions to the security industry :P . I’m not sure how long this has been going on. I assume since I upgraded to WP 2.5.1. I turns out that either podPress or the Creative Commons plugins is not playing nice. I was getting the following lines concatenated in the feed:

  • xmlns:creativeCommons=”http://backend.userland.com/creativeCommonsRssModule”
  • xmlns:itunes=”http://www.itunes.com/dtds/podcast-1.0.dtd”

To fix it I added a leading “\n” to the “xmlns:itunes” line in podPress’s podpress_feed_functions.php. This fixed the problem although I do not know if is a podPress bug or a Creative Commons bug. I have jumped on a similar issue at the podPress forums. They are usually very helpful and I should get a response and know more soon.

Welcome back to all.  Please check and make sure you haven’t missed anything.  I have also published a few new pages you should check out.  And don’t forget to respond to the latest Security Ripcord Poll in the left sidebar.

Go forth and do good things,

Don C. Weber
