NLnet LabsUnbound 1.23.0 is now available. Our <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/DNS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DNS</a> resolver now features ‘fast reload’, allowing it to read the new config in a thread, and when done only briefly pauses the server to update the settings. This version also contains redis replica support, DNS Error Reporting, and several bug fixes. <a href="https://nlnetlabs.nl/news/2025/Apr/24/unbound-1.23.0-released/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://nlnetlabs.nl/news/2025/Apr/24/unbound-1.23.0-released/</a>

Infoblox Threat IntelInfoblox Threat Intel had the opportunity to collaborate with the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (<a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/UNODC" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UNODC</a>) for their latest report on South East Asian Crime. The report is titled "Inflection Point". It is a great in-depth analysis of the triads and how they fuel the current scam epidemic. Organized crime is booming - as you can see with the picture below which shows the growth in the physical footprint of the compounds they operate. Our part of the collaboration (pages 37-42 of the 90+ page report) were around a single actor that we can track in <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/dns" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dns</a> -- naturally! We analysed a number of illegal Chinese-operated gambling websites and soon found out they were operated by the same 'gambling provider' we named Vault Viper. Vault viper develops its very own "secure gambling browser". Of course it's <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/malware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#malware</a>. Through DNS, we discovered the companies behind Vault Viper were in fact controlled by Suncity - a criminal junket whose founder has been convicted of laundering billions of dollars. <a href="https://www.unodc.org/roseap/en/2025/04/cyberfraud-inflection-point-mekong/story.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.unodc.org/roseap/en/2025/04/cyberfraud-inflection-point-mekong/story.html</a> Illegal gambling is not harmless fun. It fuels some of the largest criminal networks in the world. The entire report is worth reading to get the latest view from experts on the world of organized crime in Asia that is running <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/scam" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#scam</a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/pigbutchering" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#pigbutchering</a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/humantrafficking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#humantrafficking</a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/cybercrime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cybercrime</a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/malware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#malware</a>, <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/illegalgambling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#illegalgambling</a>, illegal porn and who knows what else. The image below shows just how much it has grown in a few years from physical footprints. We'll be releasing a detailed report on Vault Viper in the coming months. <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/infobloxthreatintel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#infobloxthreatintel</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/infoblox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#infoblox</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/organizedcrime" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#organizedcrime</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/china" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#china</a>

Infoblox Threat Intel“Your device has been blocked due to illegal activity” — 🙄 sure it has. After fat-fingering github[.]com, we were redirected to a domain running a fake Microsoft tech support scams: pop-ups that lock your browser, shout scary messages, and push you to call a “support” number (aka the scammer who’ll walk you through installing remote access tools). They're hosted on legit infra like Azure blobs or Cloudflare Pages. That one redirect led to uncovering 1,200+ other domains hosting identical fake support pages. Of course, whenever a redirect like this happens, there's a malicious traffic distribution system (TDS) involved.

Edwin G. :mapleleafroundel:My IT story today: it’s somehow always DNS.I ran a gateway update at home, to fix an issue I was having. After updating, one of the connections didn’t come back online (no link). Tested the cable, all good. Go into the interface, the trunk port tied to the cable was disabled.The kicker: it’s part of the trunk leading to my DNS resolvers.
