Hi,
tcpflow is amazing. I really have seen on the Terminal the content of the
file I download with the API
dictionaryWithContentsOfURL
and even the link from which it comes.
Since I use the content of that file to give the user the permission to run,
I would like to know: can the user feed my application with some other data
coming from a different server?
I mean, can a user diverge my call dictionaryWithContentsOfURL from my
domain to some other domain?
Best Regards
