…without snark or jumping down my throat. I genuinely want to know why it’s so unsafe.

I’m running a Synology DS920+, with my DSM login exposed through a Cloudflare tunnel. I have 2FA enabled, Synology firewall enabled with these rules in place. I also have this IP blocklist enabled.

After all of this, how would someone be able to break in via the DSM login?

    Because you’re going to be hit by the next of the countless pre-authentication vulnerabilities that constantly pop up for appliance’s like yours.

    All your security measure will do absolutely nothing in that case.

    I don’t get why you don’t just set up a VPN? It isn’t more complicated than what you did, and offers far superior protection. And for 99% of use cases, you don’t loose any functionality either.
