Hijacked maintainer account used to publish poisoned axios releases including 1.14.1 and 0.30.4. The attacker injected a hidden dependency that drops a cross platform RAT. We are actively investigating and will update this post with a full technical analysis.
In case you missed it: CVE-2026-98432 is a critical (CVSS 9.8) bug in the Linux kernel's TCP code. It's been there since 2016, so virtually every Linux server on the planet has it, and it can be hit remotely. Anthropic says it built a working exploit that gets root on a server. A total takeover.
Inside the complacency and decisions that eroded trust in Azure—from a former Azure Core engineer.
Data centers are cool, everyone should have one.
TLDR: Despite claiming to backup all your data, Backblaze quietly stopped backing up OneDrive and Dropbox folders - along with potentially many other things.
Today is fundraising announcement day . As is the nature of writing for a larger audience, it is a formal, safe announcement. As it should be. Writing must necessarily become impersonal at scale. But I would like to write something personal about why I am doing this. What is the goal of building exe.dev ? I am already…
On digital sovereignty, and why European cloud is better than you think
Your DNS bill shouldn't scale with your traffic. So we removed query fees from Bunny DNS entirely. No per-request billing and no query limits.
A real-world production migration from DigitalOcean to Hetzner dedicated, handling 248 GB of MySQL data across 30 databases, 34 Nginx sites, GitLab EE, Neo4j, and live mobile app traffic — with zero downtime.
I decided to make my own container runtime for fun, and even though I’m still early on, I’ve learned that Docker is weird . Here’s some weird things I learned about Docker.
I was one of the very first advocates for AWS back when it was brand new - SQS, S3, EC2 SimpleDB - it was a lot smaller back then. In fact I...
By Ljubisa Bajic Many believe AI is the real deal. In narrow domains, it already surpasses human performance. Used well, it is an unprecedented amplifier of human ingenuity and productivity. Its widespread adoption is hindered by two key barriers: high latency and astronomical cost. Interactions with language models…
Why & how we rewrote Bun from Zig to Rust
I don’t like to cover “current events” very much, but the American government just revealed a truly bewildering policy effectively banning import of new consumer router models. This is ridiculous for many reasons, but if this does indeed come to pass it may be beneficial to learn how to “homebrew” a router…
CLI agents like Claude Code make self-hosting dramatically easier and actually fun. This is the first time I would recommend it to normal software-literate people.
I tried building my startup entirely on European infrastructure. Here's the stack I landed on, what was harder than expected, and what you still can't avoid.
A series of unfortunate events.
When AI handles 95% of your incident response, do you get worse at handling the 5% that actually matters?
I’ve always had a foot in the self-hosting world, long before it was called that. My freshman year of university, I ran a website from a Linux box underneath my bed. There was some downtime when my roommate got tired of the fan noise and turned it off. For several years I ran MythTV , then XBMC (later known as Kodi).
Cloudflare OS is an open-source platform that lets everyone in your company build apps, automate work, and safely access internal systems, shaped around what your organization knows and how it operates.
Starting today, agents can now be Cloudflare customers. They can create a Cloudflare account, start a paid subscription, register a domain, and get back an API token to deploy code right away. Humans can be in the loop to grant permission, but there’s no need to go to the dashboard, copy and paste API tokens, or enter…
Your open-source personal cloud: containerized apps, unified auth, good UX. Self-hosting should feel like using a smartphone that serves webapps, not a sysadmin side job.
We’re thrilled to announce that Podman v6.0.0 is now available! This major release brings a host of significant improvements and new features designed to enhance your container management exp…
An AI agent used a stolen Tailscale auth key at Hugging Face. Workload identity federation, flow logs, and safer defaults could have reduced the risk.
In the US, you can get a domain name like `somename.city.state.us` for free. If your town has its own domain, you can get nameservers from Amazon Lightsail, send the *Interim .US Domain Template* to the delegated manager for your locality, then point DNS entries at your webhost.
A series of unfortunate agents.
