Certain configurations of Alpine are affected. Other distros may be as well.

    Wait that means I have to expose a port. But I have zero exposed ports.

      Meaning router port, not firewall port? I struggle to know the difference.

        Some people seem to think that by not opening a port in their router, and instead opening a reverse tunnel to a VPS which has an open port, it somehow makes them more secure

          I’m not sure what a reverse tunnel or vps is so I’m good. Why wouldnt they just use tail scale.?
