Subject: Treason uncloaked / Broken peer again
Date: Sat, 21 Feb 2009 11:58:29 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090221195829.GA14779@bx9.net> (raw)

A recent set of fiddling to our web crawler has resulted in crawled
Linux hosts frequently getting "Treason uncloaked" messages in their
dmesg. This has resulted in a modest amount of hate mail, surprisingly
little given that we crawl millions of hosts per day.

We're running the RHEL 5.2's kernel, and I have a remote webserver of
my own running RHEL 5.2 that's getting the messages. If you look in
your own webserver dmesg and see treason emanating from
38.108.180.XXX/24, that's me.

Unfortunately, I haven't made the thing deterministic. My suspicion is
that there's another bug similar to:

http://github.com/github/linux-2.6/commit/2ad41065d9fe518759b695fc2640cf9c07261dd2

Any advice on how to narrow down the bug? I was hoping I could get a
tcpdump of a treasonous conversation and hand it over to you guys.
