Comment on 700+ self-hosted Git instances battered in 0-day attacks

Doesnt matter if its a forge, a wiki, or like nextcloud or whatever. It will happen.

To anyone afraid of the above conclusion, a dedicated $5 VPS with automatic snapshots get you a long way.

if the server is compromised, all the data it stores is at risk of getting drleted or modified. so I don’t think a VPS really solves the problem.
