We're good though.

Hello there,

*Our security scanner Repo Lookout <https://www.repo-lookout.org/> has
found a likely vulnerability on a host for which you are listed as the
contact!*

Repo Lookout is a non-commercial project to find inadvertently publicly
exposed source code repositories.Details

The following URL was world-readable at the time of scanning (Jul 27 '23):

   - https://expo.survex.com/.git/logs/HEAD

*This allows (at least partial) access to the site's underlying source code
repository!*

For instance, the last 5 code commits have been:

   - 6c92341e: update pending list
   - c0b83a57: 1627 cave, instatiate 703-734
   - b7adbb59: Capitalisation of filenames to UPPERCASE
   - 0be4a557: logbook entry
   - a9b40d4e: Online edit of entrance 1623-2023-lc-01

Such access to the repository could give a malicious actor insight into the
structure of the site (e.g. hidden functionality, critical bugs, or
credentials to third-party services) and enable downstream attacks (e.g.
data leakage, phishing, and extortion).

*If this was not intended, we highly recommend to disable access to the
source code repository!*

Note that if the repository was intentionally made available, no action is
required.What is „Repo Lookout“?

Repo Lookout is a large-scale security scanner, with a single purpose: Find
source code repositories that have been inadvertently exposed to the public
and report them to the domain’s technical contact.
