That's pretty trick!  I'm seeing a shape with 10 line segments around the ISS object over eastern Russia.

I'm attaching a screenshot but it may not go to the list, so am sending it direct as well.

It's moving to the right every couple of minutes.  It also seems to only appear at a few zoom levels.  Zoom out too much and it disappears.  I saw it first though at a much higher zoom level.  It's most likely an Xastir drawing problem.
