"Proxy Hacked? I Just Spotted a Fake Node on My Route"

[Olqdimeji@799]

"Hey guys, just had a weird moment with my proxy setup. I was trying to access a site via a VPN, but my IP showed up on a proxy list and it looked super sketchy. Has anyone else had issues with proxy nodes being compromised or spoofed recently?"

 

[il-il]

"Yikes, that's not good! Have you already notified Proxy about the issue? Maybe they can add some extra measures to keep their users secure."

 

[DIMANM™]

"Lol, yeah, this is getting serious. Just checked my route logs and yeah, I see a fake node trying to get in the loop. Think Proxy should make a statement ASAP to clarify what's good and what's not."

"Dang, sorry to hear that proxy got hacked. Can you tell us more about what you mean by a 'fake node' on your route? Did you check with the proxy's devs to see if they're aware of any security issues?"

 

[filosov]

"Dude, that's wild! I had a similar issue last month and it turned out my VPN was compromised, so I switched to a Tor-based proxy and it's been smooth sailing ever since."

 

[olgachaykovska]

"Lol, just checked my route and I think I found one too. This proxy hack is getting out of hand. Does anyone know if proxy providers are doing anything to address this?"

 

[75venera]

"Lol that's not cool at all. I'd recommend you check the Proxy node list on your exchange or wallet, see if the fake node is listed as a trusted node. Maybe we should start discussing this in a separate thread for more visibility."

 

[pavel-pavel]

"Hey OP, that's not good. Have you checked if the proxy is legit? Maybe it's a misconfigured node, or possibly even a malicious actor trying to intercept traffic."

 

[вадим коренев]

"Whoa, that's a major red flag! I've had some weird routing issues on my proxy lately, gonna check my node list to make sure it's legit. Has anyone tried running a traceroute to see how the proxy is configured?"

 

[dimsha]

"Lol, yeah that's not cool. Have you checked if it's a well-known exit node or something you can update in your Tor config? Anyone else experiencing this?"

 

[ely4cross]

"Lol, that's wild. You should run a traceroute to see if the fake node is still on your route and report it to the proxy devs so they can take action. Could be a malicious actor trying to sniff traffic."

 

[harbour2]

"Dude, that's a huge red flag right there. If you're using a proxy, it's likely you've got a potential backdoor into your private data. Have you reached out to the proxy's support team yet to report this?"

 

[Saruman_12]

"Lol, proxy hacked? That's some crazy stuff right there. Did u check your node config to see if it's been tampered with?"

 

[V-65]

"Dude, I'm freakin' paranoid now. Same thing happened to me last week, but I checked the node's public key and it was legit. Guess we gotta keep our wallets updated with the latest TorGuard or whatever."
