Platform: https://steemhunt.com
Expected Behaviour
.DS_Store file should be a hidden file and on calling it 403 Forbidden should be showed.
Actual Behaviour
.DS_Store file is visible publicly.
How to reproduce
Visit https://steemhunt.com/.DS_Store and download file locally.
In terminal use the following commnad to view the contents of DS_store file.
xxd -p path/to/.DS_Store | sed 's/00//g' | tr -d '\n' | sed 's/\([0-9A-F]\{2\}\)/0x\1 /g' | xxd -r -p | strings | sed 's/ptb[LN]ustr//g'
Impact
Though website does not host any crtical file now, but due to DS_store file one can download and view all files on the website.
Hey,
I see in you github report, you have mentioned browser and OS as any. Its not where the issue is happening, its what you used to test your bug.
Also when you say, you can download all the files, you can download those anyways, this is a opensource project, you can look at the code and make whatever change you want. Question is can you deploy it to thr server without their permission?
Thanks for the suggestion, I pointed out here that though the code does'nt have any crtical files right now. But in Future may be some API-Keys might be used, for ex: AWS etc that with this public one can download the config files easily and may use it maliciously.
I will fix my Github issue regarding OS and Browser. Feel free to ask any question you may have
Thanks.
