  1. To all who thought they canceled Rackspace Email last month when they tripled their monthly rate:

    I canceled on March 19, yet this morning received a notification they'd charged me for yet another month. Check your billing statements.

  2. RE: infosec.exchange/@ubernostrum/

    Whew, glad I migrated off of Slicehost quickly after #Rackspace tool them over. What a terrible company.

  3. I've been exceptionally happy with #rackspace for my email, but increasing prices by 3x is ridiculous. Just say you don't want my business anymore.

  4. I've used #rackspace to host my personal email -- and email for several friends at their custom domains -- for well over a decade. Their standard IMAP mailboxes are currently at $2.99.

    At least until March 1st. I just got an email that they are raising their prices to $10/mailbox. That's right 3x.

    What. The. Fuck.

  5. Dominos:

    It figures they are safely hosted by RackSpace, in Texas.

  8. A CVE has been allocated for the ScienceLogic ‘third party application’ zero day that lead to the Rackspace breach. CVE-2024-9537

    Patches have been made available finally.

    The articles for it are all behind a paywall on ScienceLogic portal.

    The vulnerability description is an “unspecified vulnerability”.

    Friday night dump.

    #Rackspace #threatintel #ScienceLogic

  9. I have a fun blog about the ScienceLogic situation due to drop on Monday entitled “ScienceLogic and their security vulnerability cover ups”. #Rackspace #threatintel #ScienceLogic

  10. Does anybody know which third party application within ScienceLogic is the vulnerable one?

    ScienceLogic are refusing to disclose, as are Rackspace, so it’s created this ridiculous situation where there’s an actively exploited zero day in the wild where there’s zero information on how to protect and detect.

    My Signal address is in my profile.

    #Rackspace #threatintel #ScienceLogic

  11. PSA for ScienceLogic SL1 customers - go to the support portal and download and apply the security hotfix for the product.

    They haven't told people to do this and haven't allocated a CVE and locked it behind a support paywall -- but there's an actively exploited zero day in the product they're trying to actively downplay. #Rackspace #threatintel #ScienceLogic

  12. Sciencelogic have published a security update for ScienceLogic SL1 which fixes the zero day vulnerability.. but they’ve put it behind a paywall, haven’t told customers and haven’t issued a CVE. #Rackspace #threatintel #ScienceLogic

  13. The Register has picked up this story.

    Sciencelogic say the vulnerability is in a third party software library and no CVE has been issued, and they’re declining to name the library.

    One to watch. Smells of dead bodies in cupboards. theregister.com/2024/09/30/rac

  14. #Rackspace Goes All In – Again – On #OpenStack
    OpenStack is now based on #Kubernetes, opening it up to containers, and the infrastructure is being modernized to enable the infrastructure to run generative #AI workloads. Dawn, the UK’s fastest #supercomputer, will run an OpenStack variant, #ScientificOpenStack, developed by #StackHPC. Rackspace is looking to help and recently upstream code contributions to OpenStack community that dovetail with its #OneOpenStack strategy.

    In March, #Rackspace sent me this rubbish, and my heart sank:

  16. For anybody setting up Rocky 9 or Alma 9 servers on Rackspace Cloud, here's my tutorial on getting the backup and monitoring systems working 👍

  17. @itsfoss I was migrating a server and went to change the docroot owner from apache to nginx. I meant to run:

    chown -R nginx:nginx ./

    What I actually ran was:

    chown -R nginx:nginx /

    This broke ssh and sudo. I was eventually able to recover it by getting into a recovery and reinstalling every rpm and manually fixing /etc leftovers from there. It was an early cloud server, so I didn't have physical access. This was back when #Rackspace support was worth the premium you paid for it.

  18. Backed by #OCRE funding, the Insight SFI Research Centre for Data Analytics at University of Galway is pioneering the future of #AorticDisease #research in collaboration with #Rackspace & #AWS.

    Using #AI & #ML models on AWS #cloud infrastructure allowed #researchers to reduce data processing times from 150 hours to mere minutes, and to clear the path for more timely and accurate diagnoses of aortic complications.

  19. $11 million 😳

    I used to work at a place that used to resell Rackspace's Hosted Exchange, so followed it with some interest at the time. What a clusterduck it was!

  20. Back in December 2022, #Rackspace got hit with ransomware on their Hosted Exchange, via exploitation of ProxyNotShell - as I reported at the time.

    Rackspace have so far spent north of $10m on incident response. This excludes ongoing legal and professional services costs.

    Outside of the $10m there are other costs listed. I think it's safe to say the Microsoft Exchange incident cost Rackspace... a lot - they list it as a primary factor in decrease in revenue. expressnews.com/business/artic

  21. Flinke beschuldiging van #Rackspace: de mitigations die #Microsoft had aanbevolen voor de Exchange-kwetsbaarheid #ProxyNotShell zijn te omzeilen, wat de reden zou zijn dat Rackspace in december getroffen is door een grote cyberaanval. Het bedrijf installeerde de patch namelijk niet, maar vertrouwde op die mitigations.
