Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

Researchers at Aquasec have found over 336,000 exposed Prometheus servers and exporters, risking data breaches and DoS attacks. Vulnerabilities like "RepoJacking" can lead to code execution through compromised exporters. To mitigate risks, organizations should prioritize authentication, limit public exposure, and secure debugging endpoints.
