Exposed wp-config.php file in ███ National Guard website
How it was found
Description:
Hi, team!
I found a ██████████ National Guard website with the subdomain/domain ████████. I know, it is strange they use the azurewebsites.us domain, but apparently it's an official website.
I noticed that some official websites from Department of Defense have versions with the exact same website in azurewebsites.us, however I didn't find the original website with the original domain, but I really think this finding is valid.
