ssh with an easy to guess root password?

It probably has a large database of exploits it can use. The article claims 20k, but this seems to high for me.

Yes, but they replace common tools like top or lsof with manipulated versions. This might at least trick less experienced sysadmins.

Edit: Some found out about the vulnerability by ressource alerts. Probably very easy in a virtualized environment. The malware can’t fool the hypervisor ;)

More than 40% of all federal spending goes into the defense sector? That’s absolutely insane, no country can survive this (unless they get massive support, like Ukraine does).

I agree, but I understood this question in the context of a homelab.

And for me, a homelab is not the right place for a public website, for the reasons I mentioned.

No, with these reasons:

• Bandwidth isn’t plenty
• My “uptime” at home isn’t great
• No redundant hardware, even a simple mainboard defect would take a while to replace

I have a VPS for these tasks, and I host a few sites for friends amd family.

Five pizzas?

I got it a few times over the last years, once on the steam deck.

Eine Woche vorher? Ich komm drei Stunden vor dem Anlass drauf.
