7twenty Posted April 16, 2019 Report Share Posted April 16, 2019 I'm pretty sure this shouldn't be happening, or at least not available for anyone to find. Plain text MX_LOG_XX.log files in windows' temp folder. Sample attached with URLs obfuscated. MX_LOG_11.log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galileusz Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 BugSir006 (she was on the forum today) often takes part in the discussion, but somehow it's hard for her to answer security questions. This is not the first time that security questions remain unanswered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pantantrollo Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 The matter is quite serious. In addition, and already commented here in the past, all those URLs are sent to the maxthon servers (without knowing exactly what they do with them), If we have checked the box "Enable secure URL scan.This helps protect the browser and local machine against unsafe websites ", that basically we have to have it activated, because if not, we can not see the ssl certificates of the web that we visited, with what we are almost" forced "to have it activated. I already asked in a comment that this be separated, but there is no way they want or understand this. I repeat, @BugSir006, why to see the ssl certificates that any other browser offers me, I have to Yes or YES, activate this option in maxthon about the sending of URLs in the options?

Jus2021 Posted April 18, 2019 Report Share Posted April 18, 2019 I confirm the bug. Thank 7twenty for discovering this. I did not that. Thank you BuSir006 for passing this to the devs. This bug is very serious. Mx should be able to clear his temporary files and not leave them like that.

Tony Posted April 19, 2019 Report Share Posted April 19, 2019 you would have thought a security bug urgent but 3 days and counting and no fix released - is the dev or devs on holiday - i use the plural loosely as the impression is that there are few people working on anything these days the time it takes to release updates and even when released nothing much is fixed how the mighty have fallen is apt i think Tony - Vivaldi 4 on Windows 10 64Bit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jus2021 Posted April 21, 2019 Report Share Posted April 21, 2019 Today I tried to use my maxthon account and after closing the program all the links are still in MX_LOG_21.log. This bug is serious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilmatar Posted April 22, 2019 Report Share Posted April 22, 2019 I am ashamed, but I am the root cause of this problem. In November 2018 I found issue with MX's history on my work computer. History collection is stopped at 2018-10-10. This problem was taken by developers into work and the first step was changed MxHistory.dll file. This private debug DLL was have an added functionality - extensive logging of history tasks. Problem is still not fixed for now (6 months) but it looks like somehow this private debug version was leaked to production branch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have also retouched the issue of web certificates ssl, now YES at least appears the SSL certificate information on the web, although if you could have left another color when the certificate is correct, and not leave it in red (confusing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
