From 49eb4d4ddf61e25c5aaab89aa630ddd3c7f3c23d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: ThibG Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2020 06:27:26 +0100 Subject: Add honeypot fields and minimum fill-out time for sign-up form (#15276) * Add honeypot fields to limit non-specialized spam Add two honeypot fields: a fake website input and a fake password confirmation one. The label/placeholder/aria-label tells not to fill them, and they are hidden in CSS, so legitimate users should not fall into these. This should cut down on some non-Mastodon-specific spambots. * Require a 3 seconds delay before submitting the registration form * Fix tests * Move registration form time check to model validation * Give people a chance to clear the honeypot fields * Refactor honeypot translation strings Co-authored-by: Claire --- app/javascript/packs/public.js | 11 +++++++++++ 1 file changed, 11 insertions(+) (limited to 'app/javascript/packs') diff --git a/app/javascript/packs/public.js b/app/javascript/packs/public.js index 39defa7ae..8c5c15b8f 100644 --- a/app/javascript/packs/public.js +++ b/app/javascript/packs/public.js @@ -280,6 +280,17 @@ function main() { target.style.display = 'block'; } }); + + // Empty the honeypot fields in JS in case something like an extension + // automatically filled them. + delegate(document, '#registration_new_user,#new_user', 'submit', () => { + ['user_website', 'user_confirm_password', 'registration_user_website', 'registration_user_confirm_password'].forEach(id => { + const field = document.getElementById(id); + if (field) { + field.value = ''; + } + }); + }); } loadPolyfills() -- cgit
