passim is fwupd's LAN metadata-sharing daemon and listens publicly on 0.0.0.0:27500. Any fwupdmgr run D-Bus-activates it. The unit is static, so disabling it is a no-op and it comes back on the next run. Masking is what holds. Every install gets it, not only laptops: the listener is public on any host, and ratio has run with it masked since July without fwupd missing it. Velox had only been disabled and got the mask on 2026-09-12.
