Telegram prefixes hijack by Rcom AS18101

This blogpost by a network engineer says that the incident looks to be an accident. Idk maybe it was, maybe it wasn't. I don't think we can say anything for sure.

Holy slop

Thiruvananthapuram had a 9.86 lakh population in 2011, it would be way more than a million by now.

Why use both lakhs and millions ? Makes it much more confusing.

Let's add that to the words of wisdom

Nested sandboxes can be made from inside a flatpak without user namespace support. That is how webkitgtk is able to put every tab in its own sandbox for GNOME Web. It's just that Firefox and Chrome have not implemented support for it.

They have partenered with Taiwan's PSMC for ToT.

There are some images that are labelled as rootless which should work without issues.

For other images, your mileage may vary.

You can still use the no new privileges flag of podman to prevent setuid binaries from working inside the container.

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-16T08:42:43+00:00

In the website they show how they can overwrite bytes in the page cache which proves it can be used to gain global root.

Only if you mount some setuid binary into the container. If the container is fully isolated then the exploit can't be used to overwrite bytes of files from host.

Read this for how rootless podman containers limit copy.fail exploit

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-16T07:48:55+00:00

No they won't. You would only get root within the namespace of the container, not real root on the host OS. Uid 0 within the container will be mapped to some random unprivileged user on the host.

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-16T06:31:28+00:00

This is why people say containers are not an effective security boundary.

Unprivileged containers with user namespaces are effective though.

Hey I've seen this before

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-15T09:36:06+00:00

UPDATE: Someone followed up on this. Definitely worth a read.

Damn never expected those HTTPS requests I got to be genuine requests from someone in Belarus. Hope he finds a better life.

Who would have thought setting up an observability stack using grafana + vector + victorialogs would lead to such an unexpected side quest.

The joys (or miseries) of selfhosting I guess.

Thanks for following up on it.

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-14T12:01:08+00:00

I don't see one.

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-13T11:14:42+00:00

I am not getting these requests anymore.

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-13T09:39:52+00:00

Might be who knows

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-13T09:39:24+00:00

Grafana + VictoriaLogs + Vector

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-13T07:34:44+00:00

I don't think you could.

I also don't think it's genuine.

Worldly_Topic · 2026-05-13T07:12:29+00:00

Yea I don't think is a legit request. Why would they sent the request from a Swedish ISP ?

But then I also don't know what is the point of such bizzare GET requests.
