<\/p>\n

A self-identified Indonesian hacktivist collective has claimed responsibility for distributed denial-of-service attacks against at least two French websites, posting Check-Host verification links and anti-France messaging on social media.<\/p>\n

What Happened<\/h2>\n

A hacktivist group identifying itself as the Garuda Kernel Error System<\/strong> has claimed credit for a wave of distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks targeting French websites, according to posts circulating on social media and reviewed by CyberAsia.io.<\/p>\n

The group published a claim of responsibility accompanied by two verification links from Check-Host.net, a third-party service commonly used by threat actors to demonstrate that a target site is unreachable. Screenshots reviewed by CyberAsia.io show one report for the French cinema streaming platform cinelatino.fr<\/strong>, which returned HTTP 429 \u201cToo Many Requests\u201d errors across nearly every test location worldwide, and a second for lycee-kleber.com.fr<\/strong>, the website of Lyc\u00e9e Kl\u00e9ber, a school in Strasbourg, which showed connection timeouts from all tested regions. Both checks were logged on July 30, 2026.<\/p>\n

Technical Details<\/h2>\n

The Check-Host reports show near-uniform failure results , 429 errors for cinelatino.fr and full connection timeouts for lycee-kleber.com.fr , across dozens of global test nodes, a pattern typically associated with request-flooding or resource-exhaustion attacks rather than an isolated regional outage. No further technical indicators, such as attack vectors, botnet infrastructure, or peak traffic volume, were disclosed in the material reviewed.<\/p>\n

Proof \/ Source Reports<\/h2>\n

The group cited the following Check-Host.net reports as evidence of the claimed attacks:<\/p>\n
