A channel called VNC Resolver is exposing industrial panels and such that are exposed to the outside with no security measures (without even the most basic password protection set).
Quite a few things confirmed in Korea are coming up, and the channel operator has even mentioned Korea before.
Korea apparently doesn't take action and just asks them to take down the posts.

Korea's response? Just asks them to take it down without even changing the password lmao

Holy f*cking incompetence, no basic security measures means personal info gets absolutely pwned
1q2w3e4r!
Huh?
Nah that ain't you~
Can't resist seolleongtang though
Not surprised tbh, most companies are terrible with cybersecurity. This is just the ones that got caught.
At least try something like 1q2w3e4r!@ dude
Actually that's a pretty solid password—got numbers, letters, AND 2 special characters lol
Yeah it just matched the password requirements...
But every Korean dude knows that password anyway...
Apparently that combo of numbers+letters+special chars is meaningless
The real issue is using this as a gateway to hack into all the connected networks—that's the problem
This is actually insane, a government-connected factory with THE most basic password? How does this even happen in 2024
The fermentation tank control system is actually critical though
This deserves to be on the news everywhere, how is this not a bigger deal??? 🤦
All the kimchi jars they had stored got exposed lmaooo
Want to crank the doenjang barrel temperature to full blast haha
Hngh hngh (fermentation bacteria's final cry)
When IP cams get leaked with videos circulating around, 99 times out of 100 it's because of no security settings—not some fancy hacking. You go into any apartment complex with public wifi and half the routers don't even have basic passwords set. I mean, what kind of audacity is that lol
LMAO 1234?? That's literally what I use on my luggage 💀
Korean government agencies are probably sweating rn, this is so embarrassing for them 😂
Wait so anyone could have just... walked in? That's not even hacking, that's just negligence
The audacity to have 1234 as your password when you're connected to government work is absolutely unhinged
