So the active incident is now fixed and they've already reached out to impacted customers but they can't mark it as resolved yet because they are still yet to publish a more detailed blog post?

It's not that they can't mark it as resolved. It's just that it is bad business to do so.

How they handle the communication on the incident is crucially as important as remediating the original cause.

Just the fact that they are doing this means I will probably never use this service or recommend this service to anyone else.

Okay so let's just say you are one of those affected users

The founder of the company has already emailed you with details and their support team is around for you to ask any follow-up questions. Also the bug/exploit has been fully fixed

At this point are you saying you would actually be upset and leave because the incident on their status page has been marked as resolved?

That's what you are doing, congratulations

What makes you think it's fixed? They just state that they "blocked the exploit", and that could mean anything:

- did they just take the affected API offline?

- or did they just disable the account of the attacker?

- or is the exploit actually being fixed?

Environment variables are sensible data, and marking a security incident as resolved with that little detail is quite a take. Even changelog entries for harmless bug fixes are more detailed.

I assume it's fixed based on it being marked resolved and from what was communicated. Yeah I agree it's a major issue but if it's fixed what they have done so far seems totally fine
