If you are giving your codegen LLM - the model involved truly, genuinely doesn’t matter - admin access to your prod env, all I’m going to do is point and laugh.

Just to add - AND ACCESS TO THE BACKUPS!!

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 53 points 1 day ago (2 children)

and having the backups stored in the same location as the primary data

Then it's not a backup, it's just duplicated data.

Just a shit show top to bottom for sure

No one should be able to delete or change backups. This infra was in any case vulnerable to a ransomware attack as any bad actor that breaks in can delete the database and encrypt the backups with a key they promise to share in return for bitcoin.

Also no prompts, ironically, for operations like "Are you sure you want to delete the production database? (y/N)"

It’s amateur hour all around lol
