### Threat ### Threat
1. Script Kiddi sends a Star Activity containing an attack actor url `http://attacked.target/very/special/path` in place of actor. Our repository server sends an `get Person Actor` request to this url. The attacked target gets DenialdOffServices. We loose CPU & reputation. 1.

2. Experienced hacker sends a Star Activity containing an actor url pointing to an evil forgejo instance. Our repository server sends an `get Person Actor` request to this instance and get a person having sth. like `; drop database;` in its name. If our server tries to create a new user out of this persion, the db might be droped. 2. Experienced hacker sends a Star Activity containing an actor url pointing to an evil forgejo instance.

4. Experienced Hacker records activities sent and replays some of them. Without order of activities (i.e. timestamp) we can not decide wether we should execute the activity again. If the replayed activities are Unstar Activity we might loose stars. 4. Experienced Hacker records activities sent and replays some of them.

5. Experienced Hacker records activities sends a massive amount of activities which leads to new user creation & storage. Our instance might get off service. 5. Experienced Hacker records activities sends a massive amount of activities which leads to new user creation & storage loss. Our instance might fall out of service.
6. Experienced Hacker may craft their malicious server to keep connections open. Then they send you a Star activity with the actor URL pointing to that malicious server, and your background job keeps waiting for data. Then they send more such requests, until you exhaust your limit of file descriptors openable for your system and cause a DoS (by causing cascading failures all over the system, given file descriptors are used for about everything, from files, to sockets, to pipes).
