MPTCP active on any unpatched Linux server with a single internet-exposed TCP port (e.g., HTTP or SSH) is vulnerable to complete takeover. The claim is highlighted in a quoted tweet stating the impact is “hard to overstate.”
Key points
Any unpatched Linux server with one TCP port exposed to the internet and MPTCP enabled is vulnerable to complete takeover.
MPTCP is active by default in many Go web servers.

The PampaLeaks Scapegoat presentation shows forensic breakdown
The PampaLeaks Scapegoat presentation details a step-by-step forensic analysis alleging an 18-year-old student was framed for an 8GB state biometric identity breach. It cites immutable PGP evidence, a Shannon entropy calculation that a 39.6KB text cannot contain 8GB, and unhashed screenshots used to extract a coerced plea.
Key points
Immutable PGP Evidence: Authenticated Telegram chat logs (result_20261105) archived under ISO/IEC 27037 prove the student was a secondary reseller of bot tokens who gave voluntary statements.
Impossibility of the 39.6KB: Claude Shannon’s information entropy limit shows an 8GB relational database cannot fit inside the prosecution’s 39.6KB text evidence, requiring a compression ratio of 211.835:1.
