社交平台 Bluesky 证实,平台近日持续近 24 小时的服务中断并非技术故障,而是一次分布式拒绝服务攻击。公司表示,大量无效流量在一天内持续涌入服务器,工程团队随后临时升级防护,并继续监测后续情况。

平台确认遭遇流量攻击

DDoS 攻击通常通过大规模异常请求挤占服务器资源,导致正常用户无法访问服务。Bluesky 没有披露此次攻击的流量规模,也未说明流量来源。

公司对外表态较为简短,仅称已完成防御升级。对于攻击路径、受影响范围以及恢复过程,公开信息仍然有限。

研究人员提到伊朗相关线索

围绕此次事件,安全研究人员在 IFIN 公开论坛表示,有与伊朗有关的攻击者认领了这次中断。不过,这一说法目前来自研究人员观察,并非 Bluesky 或美国官方的正式归因。

这一背景之所以受到关注,是因为今年以来,随着美国和以色列主导的战争持续,伊朗针对美国企业和关键基础设施的网络攻击活动被指有所增加。此次事件也让面向普通用户的社交平台,进一步进入地缘网络冲突的视野。

今年已是第二次大规模中断

这并非 Bluesky 今年第一次遭遇类似攻击。报道提到,该平台在 2026 年 4 月也曾发生一次较大规模的 DDoS 事件,用户当时同样长时间无法访问服务。

目前,4 月与 8 月两次攻击是否由同一批行为者发起,仍没有公开确认。Bluesky 也未说明两起事件之间是否存在联系。

从结果看,平台在数月内两次被大规模流量攻击压垮,外界对其基础设施韧性和持续防护能力的关注正在上升。此次升级能否避免类似事件再次发生,仍有待观察。
