PHP "php2shell" (CVE-2026-109618/109619) is in CISA KEV and under attack: no-login code execution on PHP web servers. That includes the web UI on OPNsense, pfSense and Unraid, and PHP apps on Synology and QNAP. Update to PHP 8.5.12, 8.4.27, 8.3.36 or 8.2.35 (or the vendor update), then restart PHP.
Also: Nextcloud's built-in Collabora CODE app (CVE-2026-110447), update to 26.4.303.
Patch or PassPatchOrPass #2: PHP php2shell exploit, patch now. Plus Nextcloud CollaboraTwo PHP flaws are under attack, and PHP runs the web interface on OPNsense, pfSense, Unraid and many NAS apps. Update PHP first, then the built-in Collabora app in Nextcloud.
OpenCloud is the continuation of ownCloud Infinite Scale, written in Go, with an Apache 2.0 server and no CLA. I set it up with Docker Compose, local storage, and NGINX Proxy Manager, then added Tika for full text search and Euro Office for document editing. Do note the NPM gotcha: turn off Block Common Exploits for that host or the desktop client fails with a 403.

Installing #casaos and got this "curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 500

Does this mean that their installer is broken?
Been curious about your skills lately. Help me out, take a quick survey. I'll cover the results in a future video! I love seeing this data and detail. #homelab #openSource #linux #windows #survey

I've been trying out BookOrbit, a self-hosted library for ebooks, PDFs, comics, and audiobooks that runs with Docker and PostgreSQL. It's AGPL-3.0 with browser readers built in, and it can hook into OPDS readers, Kobo sync, and KOReader. I wrote up my Docker Compose setup pinned to v3.1.0 along with a hardlink gotcha I hit with Book Dock.

I've spent the week thinking about a livestream today and I've got nothing. New video coming in a few days on the channel. Thanks for being awesome! #homelab #selfhosting (picture for visibility)

Well it's taken much longer than I wanted, but I've finally automated a tiny portion of my #homelab. Following this guide, but after getting the tooling vm working once with a bunch of console work and a bit of GUI, strung all that together in a script and worked through getting it so I'm only one script away.

I've upgraded everything after our little #CybersecurityAwarenessMonth , including story from #GamersNexus and now my Internet and other traffic going through my #Asus router works veeeery poorly. Now I'm going to have a fun time figuring out which piece of software is the culprit here.

This was one of those. I lost web for five hours; my mother-in-law texted to ask if I could fix it.
But nothing irreversible happened. I'd bounded the risk with backups, locks and logs, so the worst case was an afternoon, not a catastrophe. I learned something, and the system has new safeguards.
If we're going to live on the cutting edge, we accept we might get cut. The job is making sure the injuries are the kind you recover from, not the kind that kill you.
After several failed attempts, I've finally managed to get a viable Opencode loop working with a local model: Qwen3.8-27b (Q4_K_M).
Tool calling is much more stable than configuration that I tested before (OK, Ling-3.0-tiny, one of the more recent Chinese models with 8b parameters, was also quite stable).
This is certainly less performant than commercial services, e.g., Copilot with a model like Gemini, but pushing the limit is part of the fun, isn't it?
I've upgraded my inference machine (11th gen Core i7, 32GB RAM, fast storage), installed Incus (Zabbly stable) and use a Debian 13 container as the Opencode sandbox; llama-swap has learned a few new tricks, too. My two RTX 3060 are humming along, crunching numbers.

Today is the day I'm pleased not to have had time to setup lots of services on my #HomeLab.

I can use #hyperbackup to backup to google drive :D

If you're running #Nextcloud or any other PHP application, whether in containers or natively, update your PHP installations!
Especially if you're using Apache with mod_php, which is considered the highest-risk configuration for #PHP2Shell.
The #Debian Security Team has already released PHP 8.4.27-1~deb13u1 for #Trixie.
Happy host and container patching :)
Spun up my own Matrix homeserver this week: Tuwunel (Rust) on a small VPS, memory-fenced with systemd so a big room join can't starve anything else on the box. Delegation via .well-known on my GitHub Pages site.
Say hi: @azur3x:azur3x.org
Room recommendations for privacy, self-hosting or Reticulum are very welcome.
After my #homelab machine died on Monday, today the PSU of one of my switches kicked the bucket. That is in addition to the already flaky WiFi repeater that keeps taking down my entire home network every few weeks for some reason.
Maybe I should really consider redoing my entire network with better hardware 😅. But I’m planning to wait until I need to buy a new router for the fiber connection I will hopefully be getting next year.
Still, I would really appreciate a week or two without tech issues.
A new repository is now live at Codeberg.org/NoiseBoxWorks/WyseCrawler. All the stuff you need to make a Dell Wyse 3040 Thin Client into a stand-alone router-based data obfuscater.
Stand up to Big Data! Poison your data with NoiseBox.

I started a blog to share about my tech projects and related stuff.
My first post is about how I built my weird #homelab setup with Fedora, Ansible, and Incus.
Hi Fediverse! 👋 Serverküche is a small site with self-hosting tutorials – from a freshly ordered VPS to a full stack with Traefik, backups, monitoring, mail and SSO. Every guide is tested on a real server before it goes up, in German and English.
New articles will show up here automatically; replies and questions are read and answered by a human. Ask away!

I’ve started logging all the changes I make to my computers and servers.
Why? Because I suffer from CRS*.
I am keeping the logs in Joplin, but if the Fediverse has a simpler or better suggestion, I’m open to it.
*CRS: Can’t Remember Shit. If you or a loved one has a hard time remembering what you did 10 minutes ago, or can’t recall the name of the person you met 5 seconds ago, you too may have CRS.
