Arch Linux AUR Hit by Another DDoS Attack, Port 22 Access Disrupted (linuxiac.com)

The Arch Linux team has once again been forced to respond to a distributed denial-of-service attack targeting its AUR repository infrastructure. As a result, DDoS protection has been enabled for aur.archlinux.org to help mitigate the ongoing disruption.

While this measure helps keep the AUR website accessible, it has introduced a significant side effect: pushing to the AUR is currently not possible.

Services I know that have both HTTPS and SSH access have seen all sorts of weird stuff seemingly related to LLM bot scraping over the past few months. Enough to bring down some git servers.
