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.

SonarQube Projects API

What an attacker could do

The SonarQube projects search reveals analyzed codebase names and structure, and a default admin/admin login or leaked token grants access to source snippets, security hotspots, and unpatched-vulnerability details that aid targeted exploitation.

How to defend it

Change the default admin credentials, disable anonymous access (force authentication), scope analysis tokens narrowly, and keep the instance off the public internet.
