Nothing says "security professional" quite like getting a data breach notification for your localhost development servers. Apparently someone out there managed to breach http://localhost:8081, http://localhost:8088, and the ever-vulnerable http://localhost. Your dev credentials with the ultra-secure combo of "[email protected]" were just too tempting for hackers worldwide.
The real question is: which data breach consortium is monitoring your local machine? Did they break into your apartment, sit at your desk, and carefully document your test credentials? Or did you accidentally push these to production because "it's just temporary"? Spoiler: nothing is ever temporary.
The lightbulb icon on the last entry really ties it together. Yes, that's the moment of realization when you figure out where those "localhost" credentials actually ended up.
