That's odd, because usually servers get owned from faulty wordpress/joomla instances. I rarely hear of web servers getting rooted via web apps run on python.

That's odd, because usually servers get owned from faulty wordpress/joomla instances. I rarely hear of web servers getting rooted via web apps run on python. I'm not really an experienced php dev myself, and when I installed joomla on my vm last year, it was rooted within the hour -- I was notified by a data center admin saying my vm was using an insane amount of bandwidth. I'm sure it was some script scanning for boxes with slightly old versions of joomla. I haven't had the same kind of bad luck installing python apps.
- LeafStorm 15y agoThe PHP on our servers is also ridiculously locked down due to a combination of php.ini sandboxing settings including open_basedir (which AFAIK no other language has out of the box) and very strict AFS permissions (the server only has access to your specific Web locker, and it only has write permissions if you specifically enable them in the locker portal). (I also haven't seen any Joomla installs.)
