• Mass Scanning

  Can I get banned for mass scanning with https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/masscan or does it slow down any other vms from other persons? Source: 11 months ago

• Has anyone ever had their homelab or network hacked? What happened?

  Nope, this doesn't work any more. Shodan checks all ports (so any attackers using data from Shodan already know which ports you have open), and tools like masscan (https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/masscan) let you portscan the entire IPv4 address space in less than 10 minutes.

• Private server intruded

  The discord user at the time used the tool "Masscan" to scan every 25565 port on the internet, he claims he was able to get the entire internet scanned in just a few minutes with a 512MB buyvm slice. Source: about 1 year ago

• My home server is frustrating me. Please help me, home server wizards.

  Changing the default port does nothing for security. It only prevents some basic brute force or default password scripts. Anyone is able to scan for it in no time anyway (https://github.com/robertdavidgraham/masscan). Source: about 1 year ago

• Should I be Concerned?

  But it should blow away the far-too-common belief that no-one's after you because you're not interesting enough. IPv4 is smaller than we think. It is not difficult to scan the entire ipv4 space in minutes. And every single one of those is going to knock your door on the way past. Source: about 1 year ago

• An infinite canvas for code exploration

  Great idea, and I was excited to try it (and even pay for it!) until the requirement to sign up and the hijacked back button. Also, in my Firefox, your white box as a background appears transparent and so your text is just on top of a _very_ noisy background. On the missing Terms of Service, you have the Data Use notice, but it essentially describes how you're using our email, not any code that we would need to... - Source: Hacker News / about 15 hours ago

• Alert for Social Engineering Takeovers of Open Source Projects

  As an positive counterexample, US recently reduced federal funding for the program which manages CVEs [1]. There was/is risk of CVE data becoming pay-for-play, but OSS developers have also pushed for decentralization [2]. A recent announcement is moving in the right direction, https://medium.com/@cve_program/new-cve-record-format-enables-additional-data-fields-at-time-of-disclosure-82eef1d4035e > The CVE Board... - Source: Hacker News / 1 day ago

• C Isn't a Hangover; Rust Isn't a Hangover Cure

  The social media posts [0] and [1] seem to both point to the Medium article at [2]. Though Viega does describe himself on LinkedIn as "CEO and Co-Founder at Crash Override", so perhaps he's just been reposting it himself.
