So… Interviewer specifically asked me to bring my computer, after the initial intro they asked me to show some code I’d written. I said I’d just connect to my mobile hotspot. They looked shocked and said “I didn’t think you’d have a phone here” (it was an overseas fly out for the day), I said it’s fine, I always have a phone. And they insisted I instead connect to their office wifi.
It was the only wifi i used the whole time i was there.
Back in other country I saw my mail had another logged in session, and a private repo post install script had pulled a resource from my server, from an IP back in the country, and another random country.
Only way to access to private repo was SSH key (or GitHub credentials) Only way to access to Mail was MITM cloning session or access to device (more likely - I thought i would have noticed any MITM cert issues).
Incidentally, from the same country, this time another company, I had another fly out interview request a week later and this company also specifically asked me to bring my computer — when I asked if it would be ok if I wasn’t gonna bring my computer because I needed to get it fixed, they got back the next day and said oh, we have to cancel the interview because we it won’t be possible for us to proceed.
To proceed… with hacking?
Hahaha, who knows? I’m not expert enough to know what this all means. Maybe it’s nothing. It’s probably nothing.
