Interesting nonetheless.
By relying on the default keepalive limit, NGINX prevents this type of attack. Creating additional connections to circumvent this limit exposes bad actors via standard layer 4 monitoring and alerting tools.
However, if NGINX is configured with a keepalive that is substantially higher than the default and recommended setting, the attack may deplete system resources.

Not sure why this would be happening (looks like at least one other person in the thread is seeing same result). ┌

Wonder why that is happening...>For additional privacy and security, 14 data categories — including Health and passwords in iCloud Keychain — are end-to-end encrypted. Apple doesn't have the encryption keys for these categories, and we can't help you recover this data if you lose access to your account. The table below includes a list of data categories that are always protected by end-to-end encryption.
The table includes Messages in iCloud with the caveat that the key is stored in iCloud backups if enabled, but the e2e key is still private, no?
If you view the full-res[1] of the linked image, if you look carefully at the bottom-left of the purplish plume, you will see what looks like an entirely separate yellowish-green spiral galaxy. Mind blowing.
