I started to read the blog post and got lost trying to shoot down all these aliens falling down from space. It's really a nice game integrated in the webpage. I was able to double my canon and even get a bigger blue laser. I wonder how much more weapon upgrades there is. Awesome game inside this blog.

no SEP matching is a dnssec error. The DS key in the .com. zone file are there but no longer available in herokudns.com.

Hopefully someone has a backup of those keys. If not, I think they have to contact .com. to replace the keys. It can take several hours to come back.

You read it right. Just a simple curl can infect your system. Your api can be behind multiple layer of security and still it will reach log4j and infect your system.

It seems to have worm like capabilities. Right now it seems to spread. Who knows what will happen after? It's a bit of race against the clock. I found this library to be used somehow. https://github.com/projectdiscovery/interactsh

They seem to exfiltrate data. If you see these files hosted in your projects, then you are probably part of it now.

After reading all these news about this new vulnerability in java library log4j, I thought this old video was more relevant than ever. It's a very funny video about how the world collapse because of the dependance on java.

The log4j patch to fix this vuln is available since March 2021. 9 months later... time to panic.

john37386 — Thu, 09 Dec 2021 11:23:53 +0000

This is a classic in America when calling Europe or International.

The dial out in corporate, usually you used 9. Then you google how to dial in Europe because the numbers are not natural. Google mentions dial 11 + country code + phone number.

So people hit 9 to dial out, then 11 to dial in Europe. Instantly you hear: Emergency 911, is this an emergency?

The dialer is like: no I'm trying to call Europe.
