But the funny thing is how I noticed this misconfiguration – Hetzner received a notification from the German Federal Office for Information Security, and they kindly asked us to take appropriate steps to secure the servers.

My mistake. Lesson learned. And kudos to Hetzner and the Germans!

Fortunately, it was just a testing server. No harm was done.

Of course, I'm now properly binding these Redis instances to localhost or password-protecting them. I'm also triple-checking that the Hetzner firewall is enabled.

Nooo, that was meant to be a positive metaphor! 😅

Put on your oxygen mask first, of course. 🙂
