That's ok. Just don't do it with your personal ones.
if you have your employer's keys...
I went to a similar site, but instead of checking private keys it checked all my credit cards to make sure they weren't on the dark web.
/s
Also, check if your PIN has been leaked as well! https://pastebin.com/Nn2ZcdfC
Ah but you can use Cantor's diagonal proof to get a new one. For example if I take the first four and increase the nth digit on the nth row then I get 1114 which isn't in the set.
I could have sworn I had a bank card for a while with a 6-digit pin... Am I crazy? Is that impossible? Or is the joke worn out?
Do you have a link? I want to check mine
Page claims to be IPv6 ready...does not actually have an IPv6 address. This isn't a meme, this is a crime
I just gave away my private key used to access my vps via ssh.
The website is secured with SSL ✓ and network traffic encrypted with TLSv1.3 ✓. Furthermore, the website uses IPv6 ✓ and my private key is encrypted with AES256 ✓✓✓. Nobody else can access it.
And? What was the result? Is your key safe to use?
It says it IPv6 ready but doesn't even have any AAAA DNS records.
It does use TLS 1.3, but only AES 128 bits for me.
Always great to see people who check security before putting their personal information in somewhere
well, its ready, not that its implemented 😏
Glad to see I'm not the only one checking for a AAAA. Looked like a cool and useful site /s but I only use sites with v6.
How do I upload from my company's yubikey?
To save anyone the trouble, here's a key I've generated just now:
-----BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----

A44CipJJC+9ZWBTHs90yAAAAEXUwX2E0MzhAbG9jYWxob3N0AQIDBA==
-----END OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY-----
(and if I did it wrong enough, well, you can hack me but please let me know how I fucked up)
Change any random character in there to see how the website reacts to a unique key. I changed an O to an o and it accepted it.
Wait, that's my key. Ohhh QIDBA not QADBX.
FWIW this is what I did:
$ ssh-keygen -f fake_ssh_key
(press Enter twice for no passphrase)
and then:
$ cat fake_ssh_key
Which I then just copy-pasted from the terminal. Surely this can't reveal anything about my other private keys, right?
Yes. It only reveals stuff about your defaults, which should be ed25519 globally now anyway.
We know your unique machine ID now.
I'll be impressed if you tell me what operating system I'm using.
Didn't pass captcha to submit my crypto wallet :(
Have you tried disabling VPN?
I'm a robot

All I see is *******
Blocked by defender
Damn. Microsoft did something right?
The disclaimer ruins the joke
Better safe than sorry
No
I'm pretty sure there was a version without it first.
Still made me laugh 🤷
Yes I do remember it used to not be there
Awesome :3
