Nothing gets my nerdrage on more than using CTRL+w in a browser-based shell and closing the tab.
I prefer an actual client, especially because I press CTRL+w before my brain sets in, but there are plenty of examples. My latest encounter was Rancher, a k8s management thing.
But a client running in a browser window does not imply any remotely exploitable vulnerabilities.
They’re common in clouds like Azure, AWS, etc. Life is better with ssh, but sometimes these are useful for bastions.
Yeah, annoying that it has different meanings.
