HTTP/2-based DoS attacks are here to stay. Many implementations are hardened to them. Quirky behaviour can trigger defenses and cause ENHANCE_YOUR_CALM. Read one of my latest trips down a debugging rabbit hole.

About 6 months ago Louis Navarre reached out to report some DoS-related vulnerabilities in quiche's ack processing. We fixed it up and saw no evidence that the vulnerabilities had been exploited. Check out the deep dive blog post: blog.cloudflare.com/defendin…

A massive effort from many engineers across multiple teams. Each day we've replaced planks on the fleet of Theseus composed of the ingress proxy (TLS, QUIC and more), and the brain (FL). Our spotters in the crows nest have shouted land ahoy. The beaches are full of rustaceans.

As a MASQUE enthusiast, I approve
We are excited to add QUIC obfuscation for WireGuard, aimed at helping users bypass firewalls and censorship. This new feature is now available on all desktop platforms. The Android & iOS apps will include QUIC obfuscation in future releases. Read more here: mullvad.net/blog/introducing…

MoQ (media over quic) is a new protocol for streaming — basically pub/sub for media you can check it out running in production here → moq.dev/publish/ and the blog post (very classic cloudflare deepdive you can follow style). @rrnn is a top tier story teller
