Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.

You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.

Harbor Container Registry API

What an attacker could do

An open Harbor API enumerates registry projects, repositories, and image tags, and weak or default admin credentials let an attacker pull private images or push backdoored ones consumed by deployments.

How to defend it

Change the default admin password, enforce authentication and project-level RBAC, enable content trust/cosign signing, and front the registry with TLS-only access controls.
