I'll be the grumpy uncle and tell people NOT to do this.
- andreareina 5y agoAre you saying not to log ssh logins, or not to allow access via keys? What would you tell people to do instead?
- curiousgal 5y agoI'm telling people not to use a private key they found to log into servers. It's tempting to see how far the rabbit hole goes but it can be very problematic.
- andreareina 5y agoArticle says it's part of "Kubernetes logs for the entire production clusters (gathered through log collectors)", not that the author actually found private keys and used them.
- jeroenhd 5y agoLogging in using someone's password, even if it got leaked like this, is considered a crime where I'm from. I'm sure whatever jurisdiction the author lives in has similar laws. If you know you're not supposed to be inside someone else's computer system, you shouldn't access that system, or shut up about it at least! A crime with good intentions is still a crime according to the law!
