Post-mortem from today’s FreeBSD/arm64 outage of my prod web-server:
After reboot, the box appeared to hang around ZFS root/init. Pools imported fine from live media, /sbin/init was valid, old kernel/BE made no difference. There was also a stale GPT signature on a whole-disk ZFS vdev, which made the trail extra noisy.
Actual RCA: a stray " in /etc/rc.conf in my static_routes line. rc.conf is shell, so that broke early boot badly enough that networking never came up and it looked like kernel/ZFS/init trouble.
Fixed syntax, restored ZFS canmount values, jails back online.
Lesson: always run sh -n /etc/rc.conf before rebooting. 🫠

Mastodon Incident Report / Root cause analysis:
Earlier today, users experienced timeouts with Search, Hashtags, and Autocomplete.
Root Cause: Our setup separates the Mastodon frontend VPS (Hetzner) from backend services (for example Elasticsearch) via an OPNSense firewall. Suricata (our IPS) triggered a false-positive on internal traffic and aggressively blocked the VPS IP, severing the connection to the search database.
Resolution: We identified the false-positive, added the frontend IP to the whitelist, and traffic immediately normalized. Everything is back to green!

AP: France takes ‘appropriate measures’ after sailor’s jogging app exposes aircraft carrier’s location
Sailor's jog app inadvertently leaks French aircraft carrier's location
France says it’s taking “appropriate measures” after a naval officer’s use of the Strava sports app inadvertently enabled journalists to geolocate the aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle in the Mediterranean. Le Monde newspaper said Thursday it traced a naval officer’s March 13 run and then matched the Strava data to a same-day satellite image. The newspaper said the jogger was likely on the carrier or a nearby escort ship. A French military spokesman said Friday that sailors get regular warnings about connected devices and geolocation.
