[tor-relays] Re: Ebury 1.8.3 on two Quetzalcoatl relay servers: timeline, lessons, open questions



Hi Kabe,

I think there might be sufficient grounds to believe that might be the case, and I guess we cannot know for sure.  What I can tell you, is that I personally won't be hosting any more relays with them in the future.

Hi there Zimmer

Thanks for the detailed and honest write up, it was an interesting read. I was the one who notified the network health team last Friday after my SSH login was intercepted.

I was wondering how the other relay operators were compromised since it seems unrealistic that they just happen to get the credentials of ~27 other operators.
Looking at my data from October 2 again, 26 of the 27 other compromised relays were hosted at FranTech/BuyVM.
Could they have compromised those servers at the hoster level?
