Cybersecurity researcher Jeremiah Fowler discovered a non-password-protected misconfigured server containing confidential records from Confidant Health, a Texas-based AI platform offering mental health and addiction treatment services to residents of Connecticut, Florida, New Hampshire, Texas, and Virginia.
For your information, Confidant Health offers a range of services including alcohol rehab, an online suboxone clinic, pre-addiction treatment, a behaviour change program, a recovery coach, opioid withdrawal management, and medication-assisted treatment, and has a Telehealth Addiction Recovery app with over 10,000 downloads.
The database in this incident contained over 126,276 files (approx. 5.3 TB) and 1.7 million logging records, exposed sensitive information such as:
- Personal Identifying Information (PII): Names, addresses, contact details, driver’s licenses, and insurance information.
- Mental Health Assessments: Detailed evaluations of patients’ mental health conditions, family histories, and trauma experiences.
- Medical Records: Prescription medication lists, diagnostic test results, health insurance details, Medicaid cards, medical records, treatment transcripts, letters of care listing prescription medication, and medical record requests or waivers.
- Audio and Video Recordings: It also includes audio and video recordings of sessions and text transcripts, discussing deeply personal family topics, including children, parents, partners, and conflicts.
My favorite pull request was the one adding Quake 2 to it, sadly deleted now but it's in Internet archive (pull 104).

Sérieux, nonnnnnnnn pas ce site... :'(
The British Indian Ocean Territory, a group of islands in the Indian Ocean, has the .io domain.
However, now that the British Indian Ocean Territory, the official name for the Chagos Archipelago, is set to vanish from the map, the owners of the more than 1.6 million .io websites await word on the fate of the territory's domain.
Last week, the United Kingdom and the Republic of Mauritius announced a treaty to transfer the sovereignty of the British Indian Ocean Territory to Mauritius. The change in administration raises questions about the future of the .io territorial identifier.
The British Indian Ocean Territory was delegated the .io domain in 1997, and assuming the UK-Mauritius treaty is signed and ratified next year as planned, that territorial code may be affected.
In theory, the change of sovereignty should lead to the retirement of the .io domain. The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) says as much on its website.
