Well... OK then.

24.04 -> 26.04 not super successful.

Proxmox Backup Manager Restore.... Very Successful.

Little slow with 1Gb... then again someone should just have a tiny OS drive and not... well... what this is.

Motivation to rethink my storage and partitions a bit.

Real lesson:
When the help on the console suggests that maybe... just maybe a few packages should have different sources maybe they should.

I might just do that and know for sure... later.

      Півчетвертої ночі закінчили термінові правки на нашому сервері. Причина в тому, що в світі знайшли дві критичні вразливості в самій мові PHP. Їх назвали PHP2Shell, це CVE-2026-109618 і CVE-2026-109619. Оцінка 9.2 з 10, а для експлуатації не потрібна авторизація.

      Основна наша система написана іншою мовою, але кілька окремих сервісів працювали на PHP. Ми несемо відповідальність за все, що крутиться на нашому сервері, тому закрили всі.

      Що відомо станом на зараз.

      Виправлення вийшли 21 жовтня у версіях 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 та 8.2.35. Старші гілки офіційних патчів не отримали.

      Знайшли діри дослідники з допомогою моделей ШІ: першу версію компанія Calif ще в серпні, а Wiz незалежно виявила обидві. Дослідники кажуть, що вада існувала роками, але ШІ зробив її експлуатацію практичною.

      Інформація витекла за день до виходу патчу. Спроби атак фіксували ще 17 жовтня, за кілька днів до публічного розкриття. Деякі уряди, за повідомленнями, на час відключили свої сайти.

      Масштаб. PHP стоїть на близько 70% сайтів, де відома серверна мова. Це не означає, що стільки зламано: надійних цифр підтверджених зломів поки немає, і дослідники пишуть, що експлуатація складніша, ніж здавалось у перший день. Але ризик реальний, а старих версій без підтримки в мережі дуже багато.

      Що зробити вам.

      Перевірте, чи є PHP на сервері та в контейнерах: php -v, docker images.
      Оновіть PHP і перезапустіть php-fpm або веб-сервер.
      Якщо оновитись не можете одразу, вимкніть session.upload_progress.enabled.
      Подивіться на дивні дочірні процеси від користувача веб-сервера і нові php файли.
      Якщо сервіси були відкриті в мережі з 17 жовтня, змініть ключі та токени.

      Бережіть себе і свої сервери 🙏

              Amnesty International Spain gained independence from Big Tech with Nextcloud

              For Carlos López Belenguer, IT Manager at Amnesty International Spain, free software is the key to truly owning your digital tools.

              Amnesty International involves more than 7 million people worldwide. With Nextcloud, its Spanish branch can now use the kind of tools that used to be available only from big US tech companies, on their own terms.

              Carlos' advice for anyone making the move: set clear expectations, plan your change management, and train your users. With Nextcloud's feature set growing with every version, the trade-offs of migrating keep shrinking.

              Using Nextcloud empowered Amnesty International Spain to:

              🤝 Work with activists, suppliers, and staff in a decentralized, hybrid way
              ⚙️ Self-host the entire platform and keep full control over its data
              🔐 Truly own its tools, thanks to free software that no single entity can control

                        Hej wszystkim! Czas na ponowne #introduction.

                        Znowu mnie poniosło i przeniosłem się (a raczej wróciłem) ze swojej instancji #Akkoma na #GoToSocial. Tak, wiem - za dużo kombinuję i eksperymentuję... W zwiazku z tym aby tradycji stało się zadość wrzucam nieco odświeżone introduction.

                        Jeśli miałbym określić swoje priorytety w trzech słowach, to brzmiały by tak: niezależność, prywatność i bezpieczeństwo (kolejność nieprzypadkowa )

                        Hobbystycznie bawię się w #selfhosting, czyli staram się hostować samodzielnie co tylko mogę i na ile mi wystarcza na to czasu.

                        Jestem "adwokatem" #opensource  używam otwartych rozwiązań gdzie tylko mogę. Właściwie to na każdym urządzeniu, które posiadam w domu (szczegóły w profilu).

                        Poza tym lubię eksperymentować ze wszystkim, pod co mogę się podpiąć - nawet odkurzacze.

                        Moim największym wrogiem jest czas, a raczej jego deficyt, ale w miarę możliwości wracam zarówno na fedi jak i na swoje blogi.

                        W wolnych chwilach jak już uda mi się odkleić od ekranu, wciąga mnie dobra lektura. Poza tym lubię sporty zarówno zimowe jak i letnie, czyli góry i jeziora o każdej porze roku, odpowiednio z buta lub na desce, wpław lub na łyżwach.

                                          PHP has confirmed two critical vulnerabilities, both rated 9.2/10. Fixes are scheduled for today, 21 October, at 14:00 UTC.

                                          Prepare to patch PHP, not just your applications. CERT-EU advises considering temporary isolation of public-facing services if prompt patching isn't possible.

                                          It sounds pretty bad. Affected versions are not yet confirmed but I've heard 5.4+

                                                  Also thinking about what to do in the medium- to long term. Continue with Proxmox? Switch to a bare-metal OS install, since I was mostly using a single VM + Docker for everything anyway, and get a HomeAssistant Green for my HA to keep it on separate hardware from the home server? Get two or three cheaper individual machines, connect them into a k8s cluster, host applications on that? Everything has its advantages and drawbacks.

                                                    Also shows the risk of - all my services are gone for the moment. Good: I have backups of the proxmox VMs. Bad: The proxmox cluster doesn’t have a quorum anymore, so I can’t start them on the remaining machine 🙃. May have to drop an old Pi into the cluster to get back to quorum so I can do stuff again until I the machine gets repaired or replaced.

Don't get me wrong Snac is absolutely FANTASTIC and I'd 100% recommend it to anyone starting out their own fedi instance but Littlefedi is a lot snappier for me in terms of account size and it doesn't use near as much disk access as Snac. I haven't 100% made up my mind yet and something or someone may change it but the Littlefedi option is really looking promising.
