Isn't that only true if "millions of businesses" choose to hang their PG port out on the Internet with "allow 0/0"? In the spirit of being constructive, https://www.shodan.io/search?query=postgresql shows 516,000 which is definitely not none but pretty far from millions and based on skimming the results pretty far from the businesses part, too

I would consider it a more useful lateral movement vector inside an existing org than anything else. Lots and lots of old postgress with weak acls inside networks.

I've had people tell me that they trust postres RLS as their security boundary and that it's fine to expose.

I would for sure read your nix implementation of an auto-scaling group, because I'd enjoy seeing how nix routes traffic to those new instances from your nix network load balancer

There was an offline help system in Visual Studio Community 2012 that would cheerfully download all the help files as a pseudo-.zip file, and for sure included both .NET and C++, along with SQL Server and it's my _recollection_ it included Office's OpenXML documentation, too

I'm not them but I added AWS Organizations support to moto because we needed to test all of the child account enumeration APIs. If I would have had more time/energy I would have continued my tilting at windmills to have it honor the actual $(aws sts assume-role) keys, too, since hopping between accounts in the org via the injected IAM Role was also very critical to the product at the time

I got a lot of enjoyment out of https://awsteele.com/blog/2020/09/26/aws-access-key-format.h... at the time, too


I was reminded of https://github.com/localstack/local-surf but two things materialized out of trying it out against my local aws-emulator build: AWS Console uses a proxy endpoint just for their console, and is not implemented 100% in terms of "public" AWS api endpoints; and the other is that aws-emulator (as of v1.0.322 anyway) does not expose CORS headers which is fatal to trying to have the extension contact localhost

So, it's possible that some things would work after patching aws-emulator to cough up CORS headers, but I don't know what the state of affairs is for any reverse engineering of their console proxy endpoint. Likely it's available in localstack somewhere, given who made the extension, but I didn't go digging


They wouldn't include it otherwise the binary would be comically large since (as one might guess) there are a lot of knobs involved in pricing AWS things. Just downloading it takes several minutes, served from S3

https://github.com/opencost/opencost/blob/v2.5.3/pkg/cloud/a... is the source URL, and while I haven't been in the opencost ecosystem for a while, I'd guess there's a non-zero chance you could legitimately just ask it to price your aws-emulator resources. I am pretty sure there is a terraform/opentofu integration, too, although I don't this second know if it is within opencost or is a separate project
