Code:
--------------------
# at the top of Plugin.pm
my $supportAutoSCUpdate = 0; # change this to 1 to allow auto-update
# wherever needed
if ( $supportAutoSCUpdate == 1 ) {
# your code
}
--------------------
Your MITM understanding is pretty much right-on-target. But having
their systems check frequently (what else is the point of auto=updating
to a *nightly* release?) just gives attackers 365.25 opportunities a
year.
SSH hole: 1) you should be able to specify your IP address as the
allowed source, or at least some range of IPs that will keep most
attackers out (letting all of New Mexico attack your friends beats
letting the entire world try) 2) you should disallow remote ssh as user
root, and use either a good passphrase for your userid or keypair auth
to gain access.
