Re:Finding MongoDB instances without any authentication by achillean on Sunday July 19, 2015 @03:42PM (#9912561)
I've tried to reach out for a few years now and spoke about it at every opportunity but for some reason people just aren't interested in looking at databases. Most of these MongoDB instances are running old versions and given the popularity of the project I suspect that this is a tiny fraction of deployments. Btw I'm still trying to find contacts at some organizations that are affected, but it's actually surprisingly difficult to reach somebody that is in charge of security :-/ Especially with servers hosted in the cloud doing attribution is difficult!

Edit: Btw I've also tried repeatedly to get some press coverage of this issue with reporters, but nobody was interested in covering this problem.
