The Arch Linux project has limited access to the website archlinux.org due to a DDoS attack. Until the situation is resolved, access to the site via IPv4 is turned off and only requests through IPv6 are allowed. It is noted that this is a necessary measure due to the inability to resolve the issue quickly — blocking the attack requires assistance from the hosting provider (Hetzner), but reaching support during the holiday period has proven problematic.
The restriction currently affects only web services tied to domain archlinux.org. The functionality of the AUR repository, Wiki, forum, and GitLab platform remains intact. In case of access issues to the primary repositories, it is recommended to use mirrors listed in the pacman-mirrorlist package. To download ISO images, you can utilize mirrors, ensuring to verify the accuracy of the downloaded data via digital signature.
