🚨 UBUNTU CASE UPDATE: ULTIMATUM AND PERSISTENCE OF ATTACKS – UBUNTU / CANONICAL 🐧🚫
A direct extortion message sent to the Ubuntu team by the hacktivist group "The Islamic Cyber Resistance in Iraq – 313 Team" has been detected. The threat actor has escalated the situation by establishing a contact channel to negotiate a cessation of the DDoS offensive that is currently paralyzing the platform's security infrastructure.
👤 Threat Actor: 313 Team (The Islamic Cyber Resistance in Iraq).
🛠️ Infrastructure: Operation backed by Beamed Network.
📧 Contact Method: The group claims to have sent an email to the Ubuntu team containing their Session contact ID in order to initiate direct communication.
⚠️ Direct Threat: The actor warns that, should they fail to receive a response, they will continue their assault against the main servers and security services.
📊 Current Situation Analysis
Continuity of Attack: The message confirms that the service disruption is not an isolated event, but rather a deliberate pressure campaign.
Service Status: A "Major Outage" status remains in effect for vital components such as the Security API (CVEs), security repositories, and development subdomains.
⚠️ Risk Implications (VECERT Intelligence)
Transition from DDoS to Extortion: The group has shifted from a simple service disruption to an attempt at direct coercion against Canonical Ltd.
Risk of Mass Exploitation: By keeping the security infrastructure offline, the actor creates an ideal environment for other groups to exploit recently documented vulnerabilities that users are currently unable to patch.

We dared them to break HAProxy. They couldn't.
Almond ITSEF was commissioned by the French National Cybersecurity Agency (ANSSI) to perform a comprehensive security audit of HAProxy with 25 days of continuous fuzzing.
The outcome? Absolute stability. Not a single crash. Not a single hang.

Dense WiFi doesn’t fail from bandwidth. It fails from poor airtime control.

This is wild. I’m at 40,000 feet over the Rockies on an international flight with 11 hours remaining and my @Ubiquiti Travel Router connected to the WiFi, allowed me to purchase airline WiFi and is now connected to my whole families devices ❤️🤩
