HANCHUESS has always prioritised the experience of our users and we had to temporarily suspend the operation of the digital platform microservices involved for a day and there was an issue with users being unable to access them, we apologise for the inconvenience this caused our users.
Since then, our team took immediate action to resolve the issue, which has now been fixed. After investigating the issue, we found that the problem was due to the use of a functional module provided by the Spring Boot Actuator for introspection and monitoring of the application, to view certain monitoring metrics, statistics, etc. of the application. Using it to monitor the application and its interactions, due to its very large number of built-in Endpoint (health, info, beans, metrics, httptrace, shutdown, etc.), it exposes sensitive server information by way of Http exposure, which can be subject to hacking attacks. This problem would not have occurred if we had used a policy to turn off its Http exposure method and set a policy to disable access.
Currently, HANCHUESS has been fixed and internally tested to ensure that this issue does not occur again. As of August 12, 2022, all digital platform related services have been restored. Once again, we apologise for the impact this issue has had on our users.
