It's 2020 and people are still letting S3 storage leak


A private yacht crew recruitment agency has left an AWS bucket containing the CVs, passports and even some drug test results for up to 17,000 people exposed to world+dog, according to reports.


Crew & Concierge – a Bath-based jobs firm that targets "high net worth individuals", yacht captains and management companies searching for seafarers to crew private yachts – left an AWS S3 bucket open to anyone and everyone for around 11 months starting in February 2019.


British news site Verdict reported that 17,379 seafarers' CVs were exposed, along with thousands of ENG1 medical certificates and passport scans.


A total of 90,000 files were exposed, it was said, including sample menus from chefs hoping to fill a billet aboard some oligarch's floating gin palace.
