@Bette that is very strange. I'm not sure what that is.
Would you mind taking a screenshot of it?The next time it happens, sure. I quit my browser and opened it again, hoping to be able to do that, but it failed to appear (of course). It was a stand-alone, btw, it was the only thing on the screen, the browser wasn't open yet.

@iampytest1 what's the Malicious Website Blocklist?
@kitten It is a small blocklist I created and maintain of malware, phishing, scams, and other threats.

@iampytest1 Did you report that to Google Safe Browsing?
Given the fact it's enabled to default in most browsers, it those sites gets blocked there, they would effectively be blocked Internet-wide (almost same as domain seize).
UPD: I reported those domains as well.@tapafon I did not, but I did inform the maintainers of some very popular ad-blocking lists, and one (AdGuard) has added a filter to protect their users.

Do you have this browser extension installed?

It received an update in the last couple of days and it probably opens a changelog when your browser gets around to updating it.

I have confirmed archive.ph, which archive.today redirects to, has malicious code which attempts to spam gyrovague.com with requests. The code I independently verified matches the code in the Hacker News post.

https://tria.ge/260116-d3jafadj81/behavioral1Do not use archive.today, archive.is, and archive.ph. By accessing these websites, you are donating your bandwidth to a botnet of unknown origin and purpose.
Original source:
https://social.coop/@eb/115902323900229756An emergency update to the Malicious Website Blocklist has been made to counter this threat. An emergency update is currently in the works to fix the emergency update as it is in the wrong place (I want to link to this toot in the update, so waiting to commit until I post).
As someone pointed out in the comments, this is not limited to archive[.]ph. Other archive.today domains have the malicious code.
I don't want to update the initial post as that will send a ping to every single person who liked or boosted it. -

@iampytest1 Is the malicious traffic being triggered from JavaScript or CSS? Something else?

@iampytest1 I have never trusted the archive.* sites. Too much weirdness involving high entropy DNS queries and both mail[.]ru and google scripts when I looked into it. But nothing like this in the past.
