Post-Mortem of File System Compromise on April 30th, 2023

Interesting. Sounds like the lad is facing a split in his life path: professional arsehole hacker or professional defense against arsehole hackers. The first is much more lucrative, but the second will let him sleep at night without worrying if Interpol will smash down his door at 3am.

Chose well, Turkish Teenage Hacker. Come sneed with us Kiwi Farms degenerates when you turn eighteen.

He also could have potentially done a lot more damage if he was really trying to be malicious, so I'm grateful for that.

A grey hat, in this day and age? The last one I remember was some fella writing a worm to fixed pwned linux machines from the early 00 or late 90s while leaving a nice popup log telling the owner to fix their shit so they didn't have to.
Edit: The worm was to fix the 1i0n worm
# removes rootshells running from /etc/inetd.conf # after a l10n infection... (to stop pesky haqz0rs # messing up your box even worse than it is already) # This code was not written with malicious intent. # In fact, it was written to try and do some good.

There is a third path: dickless tranny programmer. Hopefully this Turkish kid chooses to wear the white hat instead.

Was it even your fault or the fault of openresty/XenForo?

It was mine. I had borrowed configuration files from nginx to achieve higher performance with our file server, but failed to realize how much I was empowering nginx.

XenForo's fault, as far as that goes, is that it tries to use PHP-FPM as a file server instead of doing anything reasonable, so I have to try and circumvent it as much as possible.

For those seething about a Turkroach impacting the site, consider this. Said Turkroach achieved what the troon squad's been trying to do. It's not that he's "great" (though clearly he's good), it's that Troon Squad can't even outhack a Turkroach.

And "Turkroach" is probably overly insulting. Null thought he was worth encouraging, so I'll follow his lead in this disclaimer. Git gud, bruv.

Nah. Null could've been fucked over by a 17-year-old Turk-roach. Generally speaking, this shouldn't inspire confidence.

Confidence in what? We're not entrusting him with our government ID's and banking details. This is a controversial website with a lot of enemies, run by a single man. You should know and accept it's going to be hacked, and you should be keeping your personal information far enough away from this place that you never have to clench your asshole in anxiety when the database inevitably gets leaked.
