@dfox an awesome app for devs with a super responsive developer who also gives advice
What more could we ask for? -
It's funny you tagged this "hacker" and not "poorly configured server"
At least you've got it resolved now. -
rehman15167y@StyxOfDynamite well...it was an un authorized access so technically he was still a hacker
-
Why do you have your code on the server? Is it a PHP we site where no compiled binary?
Sorry not a web dev that's why I'm curious to ask -
@rehman I'd disagree a hacker is someone who uses a tool for a purpose other than that which it was originally intended for. Cloning a public repo via bit is not doing anything with git it wasn't purpose built for. 🙄
-
@rehman I'm a mobile dev, I also do .net web services but I just publish docker container with service inside it to the server. We compile and publish container from a local server to our cloud server
-
rehman15167y@gitpush sounds cool haven't tried docker yet have just heard about it will read about it.
-
@StyxOfDynamite ehh, they saw a system flaw and exploited it. knowing that wasn't the intended use of the system is still a hack to me, even if they used a tool the way it was meant to be used.
-
I guess I'm a little more rigid in what counts as a 'hack' Using git to clone what is effectively a public repo is not using it for any purpose other than what is was designed for.
-
rehman15167y@StyxOfDynamite you never know, directory listing was disabled the sub domain was not anywhere public still he finds it
-
trogus131637yGoing by the media definition, anything above a "life hack" like knowing how to shave without shaving cream is a "hack", so your undesired cyber intrusion would definitely count
