I’m moving st0rage.org to a new server. Same connection, just better hardware.
I will only be migrating accounts that have been used since March 16th, to cut down on the amount of dead accounts st0rage.org has.
The move starts tonight; please expect a few hours of downtime.
Hi All!
I recently received this email from someone ([email protected] actually ;)). I was behind on my email, wish I had seen this sooner.
See http://it.slashdot.org/it/08/02/10/2011257.shtml You did a good job at hardening your server but you forget /dev/shm I used http://www.ping.uio.no/~mortehu/disable-vmsplice-if-exploitable.c to patch your kernel on-the-fly. But update your kernel. A friend.
I’d like to thank the person who contacted me about it, and thank them for fixing the problem. That is probably the coolest thing ever to happen on st0rage. 🙂
Just figured I’d let everyone know; first root exploit since 2004. Whooo! 😀
I figured I’d post some information here about recent outages.
I plan on moving st0rage.org over to a new server soon, and there are going to be some changes (user quotas for the first time ver, yay!). I’ll also be offering a paid service, along with an increased free service.
It’s been a lot of work, and has caused some downtime (usually less than 30 minutes). People using irssi I’m sure havn’t been happy. 😉
Sorry about all the trouble, things will be much nicer soon (moving to a much more stable connection).
