@movq@www.uninformativ.de I’m pretty sure I know a bunch of people who love to blow up their money. :-(
Holy shit! :-O At least, the walls didn’t shake here. But we also had some very loud explosions, maybe they were far enough away. :-? Of course, the bangs continued last night.
Maybe some politicians need to be personally attacked with this sort of shit first in order to ban it once and forever.
Oh fuck me! I had basically turned off the route to git.mills.io last night and went ot bed at ~2AM after unsuccessfully trying to control the attacks (bad bots) that were behaving like a DDoS attack. Tried to re-enable the route this monring and *BOOM, they’re back! As-if they never stopped?! what da actual fuq?! 
Anyone have any clever ideas of what I can do here to allows normal users, like you nice folk and block ths obnoxious traffic?!

A single unsanitized parameter is all an attacker needs
My goodness, a new level of stupidity.
The bots are now doing things like this:
GET http://uninformativ.de/projects/lariza/feednotify/datenstrahler/slinp/countty HTTP/1.1
- That URL does not exist.
- By including
http://uninformativ.dein that request, this instructs the webserver to do an HTTP proxy request. Of course, this isn’t allowed on my webserver (and shouldn’t by allowed on any normal webserver), resulting in HTTP 400. And even if it were, the target would be the exact same server, making a proxy request unnecessary.
And of course, it’s not just 50 hits like this or 100 or 1’000 or 10’000. No, it’s over 150’000 in the last 2 days. All from vastly different IP ranges of different cloud hosters.
This almost looks like a DDoS attack, but it’s just completely stupid. This feels more like some idiot vibe coded a crawler.
