We evaluated the impact of the latest TunnelVision attack (CVE-2024-3661) and have found it to be very similar to TunnelCrack LocalNet (CVE-2023-36672 and CVE-2023-35838).

We were recently made aware of multiple potential DNS leaks on Android. They stem from bugs in Android itself, and only affect certain apps. We have reported them to Google, and are working on fixes.

This morning we are switching to a different primary database for our Accounts & Payments platform at 08:30 Swedish time.

We expect there to be very minimal downtime, and we appreciate your patience whilst we perform this planned maintenance.

I'm debating if I am taking @mullvadnet again this year to #DEFCON or @protonprivacy but I guess it comes down this year to, "Which can I make work easier on my new ARM powered Pocket Reform by @mntmn"

Yes I am very aware I can just run it through OpenVPN, but I would like a nice GUI if possible for my lazy ass.

@mullvadnet security improvement: instead doing login with 16 digits on devices, we can login with 16 digits only from website (mullvad dashboard).

From web dashboard I generate a unique (it is valid only once) token and then I add that token in the device.

This solution avoid that a lost device reveals the 16 digits account login.

When I do an update with yay. I became the following issue massage.

What can I do?

@mullvadnet Can the "Lockdown Mode" being on by default change be reverted? I just spent an hour and a half troubleshooting my Fedora Linux install only to find the issue was that Mullvad updated and enabled that setting. Mullvad doesn't open on boot on the machine, and it wasn't in the network settings. It was extremely frustrating to figure out the issue was related to an app update.

@mullvadnet I ask for a feature that I called "profiles". It acts like:
• Profile A: Netflix, WhatsApp, etc.
Profile B: Bank app
Profile C: Other apps/services

Each profile is a server (or a group of them) specifically tailored for that purpose (i.e. Netflix friendly).

Every time an app is foreground, Mullvad app switch in the profile where that current app belongs.

This solve the case where an app uses the IP of another app. This introduce separated channels. Every channel (or profile) has its app/services running within.

Since Mullvad uses the (Android) app permission " Query all apps" it knows perfectly which app I am using in a specific moment (foreground I mean).

We have been made aware of a phishing URL presenting itself as a sponsored Mullvad ad on Google.

Please be cautious when clicking on links, taking note of the URLs.

We have contacted Google regarding this, and had stopped our advertising on Google as of 1st March.

@mullvadnet why isn’t adservice.google.com blocked when ads & trackers are enabled via Mullvad?

Here is an ad block test

@mullvadnet any idea how to avoid those annoying messages on some sites like, you are using a VPN disable it to continue, similar stuff? I also realised that Netflix, Disney+ and Prime doesn't let you login or watch stuff if the public IP is a known VPN.

@mullvadnet Is there no way in your firefox extension to disable the socks proxy? No matter what I'm doing I'm connecting through a socks proxy. Also with the toggle set to off

@mullvadnet please add this new feature: when an user push the lock button, the selected server never changes. It just can changing IP with another one over time, but cannot changing the server. I need of this feature for Netflix. Just one server runs properly to download some tv series.

From Tuesday 5th March, next week we will be performing planned maintenance and deployments on our WireGuard servers that might cause a short disconnection and connectivity disruption.

We thank you for your patience whilst we perform these deploys.
