Exposed S3 bucket? Yep, exposed S3 bucket.

Cybernews said that WorkComposer exposed more than 21 million images in an unsecured Amazon S3 bucket. The company claims to have more than 200,000 active users.

How common is this?

Fairly common. Setting up proper permissions in AWS isn't always straightforward and getting permissions to properly integrate with an app can be confusing. I have worked with a lot of people who don't care about doing things right and only care about making something that works.

Maybe, but if your not able or don't know you need to secure your S3 buckets, you shouldn't be managing infrastructure.
