Is Your VPN Leaking?

In this video I discover a VPN leak that was discovered in Android by Mullvad that effects any wireguard VPN in any app that relies on the getaddrinfo function.

Read more about it here and test the leak for yourself

I hate Big Tech so much it's unreal

[Anonymous______________]

Because the various three letter agencies would never setup VPN server farms as fronts for data security....

I hope this gets to the people who think their VPN is immune.

Just another video proving that TempleOS is the best because it doesn't have blatant oversights like this.

My VPN isn't leaking, it's flooding😂

[taddybear]

Such a relief to hear the VPN I use shouted out. Mullvad is super simple to use, too.

[marioschulz]

I would be shocked If it isn't to be honest..

If you are expecting any sort of privacy on a chinese product using a google backed software then man, you are one special person.

You know there's an issue when a company changes their sloagan from "dont be evil"

Why am I not surprised by ANY of this...

[ethanh]

Please stop saying "Open-wurrt". It's "Open W-R-T". Sorry, pet peeve, it triggers me everytime I hear that 😅

DNS leak with VPN are really annoying...
It can happens on Linux too with wireguard for systems that uses systemd-resolved.

8:45 Well, thats part of enshitification IMHO.. Its much broader than people give it credit for

[xotster]

Sorry I don't understand. Does this leak your ip? Whats the difference between ip and dns leak?

[Spiralnebel_GB]

But if you ise Wireguard on an Open-WRT Router and block on it all connections outside if the VPN it should not cause this issue. Also a mobile 5G router should protect against.

Basically Chrome and some other Apps use a function in Android that make it possible.

IMO the issue are apps that try to make changes tonthe default routing of packages to track users or get informatiin about the system

I knew something weird was happening when I got copyright strikes for pirating South Park DESPITE having Surfshark on

[MastermindAtWork]

Would having a backup DNS like Quad9 with your VPN solves this issue until Android gets patched or all together it's not good?

[Acinelli]

Mullvad no longer has port forwarding so in the bin it goes.

I mainly use VPN for p2p crap or services with bad network infrastructure. I never sign in or route anything like banking through VPN. I use Proton, but Proton sucks on android. I get disconnected so frequently for no reason, and I pay for it... 🙃
