Have to point a dns to the ip, buy a domain, stablish ddns. I don’t see it happening often. If you know all that you are ought to know about getting hitm

Bot hits are not a problem for jellyfin. The main problem right now is unauthorized access to endpoints for people who know the hash that is being used in that endpoint.

It’s a targeted attack that hampers availability of the services (making it more available than it should be). It doesn’t make internet more insecure or anything.

As I said previously I haven’t actually known of any of these attacks happening on the wild. As they are kinda hard of pull of. You need to know the precisely hash used for the endpoint, the most normal way of knowing that without being an authorized user is because you used to be an authorized user and you are not anymore. That’s weird in jellyfin current ecosystem. People say that the hash could be calculated by a complete outsider, but I have never seen anyone pulling it off on the wild. You need to know a lot of things about the service you are attacking to be able to do it.

So, yes is a security vulnerability, all software have those. But I think it gets blown out of proportion often.
