Blackbird Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 I must have jinxed it by asking pushover questions but Pushover is currently fighting a DDOS . I wondered why I wasnt getting my notifications.
paulbates Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 I never would have known. I've received what I expected. Specifically I noticed the garage door notifications since I'm home and opened it. It came right away.
Blackbird Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) I just now received about 20 pushover notifications that were backlogged. So I guess its fixed Edited October 25, 2019 by Blackbird
paulbates Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 AWS Route53 / DNS was hit yesterday and the day before. I believe pushover uses AWS. I don't see any stories about pushover specifically. I have 6 expected messages throughout the day. Is there a link to a story?
Blackbird Posted October 25, 2019 Author Posted October 25, 2019 (edited) It was on their twitter. Looks like I spoke too soon, still having problems. Im currently not receiving messages. Edited October 25, 2019 by Blackbird
paulbates Posted October 25, 2019 Posted October 25, 2019 Hmmm ok. The problem must be localized somehow. I just opened my garage door and the notice came within 3 seconds, which is normal. It varies normally from almost instant to maybe 10 seconds.
Blackbird Posted October 26, 2019 Author Posted October 26, 2019 My email to pushover seems to work now but not the network resources.
MWareman Posted October 28, 2019 Posted October 28, 2019 Pushover posted a write up on the issue... https://blog.pushover.net/posts/2019/10/october-24-25-ddos-attack
