Researchers at Aqua Security reported that hackers are using misconfigured Jupyter notebook servers primarily to illegally stream sports events, highlighting a new attack vector.
Assaf Morag, threat intelligence director, explained that they observed hackers exploiting weak passwords on Jupyter servers to broadcast events like UEFA matches using FFmpeg.
While the motivation behind this trend may be financial, the presence of misconfigured Jupyter servers raises concerns about potential data leaks.
Nautilus researchers identified unusual traffic linked to this sports streaming phenomenon, pointing out that the notebooks could contain sensitive information despite being misused.
