Hackers hide behind Tor in exposed Docker API breaches




Seriously, People?

Another Fucking Docker Disaster. You’d Think We’d Learn.

Right, listen up, you bunch of security-challenged clowns. Apparently, some script kiddies – and let’s be real, it’s always script kiddies – are exploiting exposed Docker APIs. Like leaving the keys to your server farm under the welcome mat kind of exposed. They’re using Tor to hide their pathetic tracks while they pull this shit.

What are they doing? Oh, just gaining access to systems, running crypto miners (because of course), and generally wreaking havoc because someone couldn’t be bothered to secure a basic fucking API. They’re scanning for these open ports like vultures on roadkill. It’s not rocket science; it’s “Docker security 101,” which, judging by this mess, nobody took.

The worst part? This isn’t new! We’ve been warning about this for ages. But noooo, gotta have that convenience, gotta have that easy access… even if it means handing the internet a free pass to your infrastructure. They found over 80 compromised systems so far, and I guarantee you that number is just scratching the surface.

So yeah, update your Docker, lock down those APIs with passwords (strong ones, for once!), and maybe, *just maybe*, don’t be a complete idiot. Is that too much to ask? Apparently it fucking is.

I once had to clean up a system where someone thought it was a good idea to expose their entire database admin panel directly to the internet with default credentials. Default. Credentials. I swear, sometimes I think people actively *try* to get hacked just so they have something interesting to tell at parties. Pathetic.
