[BOSSES NAME],

Recently, a rather large database provider named MongoHQ had a security incident allowing the attackers to gain access to all of their customer databases.

Although we are not directly affected by this, it does raise a possible question:

• Are we fully prepared for a similar intrusion?
• Does our admin/support system have similar vulnerabilities?

Here is an excerpt from their security posting (bold is mine):

#!/bin/sh

# cp host /usr/local/bin/
# I only use host for checking records, and 9 times out of 10
# I copy paste the url from my browser. Chrome adds http[s]://

if [ -n "$1" ]
    then
        # 1 parameter, let's do this thing
        /usr/bin/host ${1#*//}

#!/bin/sh

# Converts a directory of .flac files to the proprietary and lossy
# .mp3 format, retaining meta data.
#
# Note: Requires ffmpeg (brew/apt-get install ffmpeg)
#
# Use:
#
#    flactomp3 DIRECTORY

#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Run as root (sorry mom) like this: curl http://gist/test.sh | sed 's/defaulthost/pablo/g' | sudo sh
# This basically turns on ssh and sets a new hostname.

scutil --set HostName defaulthost

echo "Succesfully changed hostname to `hostname`"

echo "Enabling SSH access.."
systemsetup -setremotelogin on
