Lately I have been working on implementing v2 of DigitalOcean's API.
|
|
|
|
|
While doing that I ran a query to get all actions on my account.
|
|
|
|
|
I discovered that the result by default is *paginated* with 25 results on each *page*.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I re-ran the query but asking for up to 1000 results.
|
|
|
|
|
While inspecting the result to see if I did get all 87 results this time I discovered this odd-looking action:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
|
"id":XXX,
|
|
|
|
|
"status":"completed",
|
|
|
|
|
"type":"tcpdump",
|
|
|
|
|
"started_at":"2014-04-28T08:26:51Z",
|
|
|
|
|
"completed_at":"2014-04-28T08:28:00Z",
|
|
|
|
|
"resource_id":YYY,
|
|
|
|
|
"resource_type":"droplet",
|
|
|
|
|
"region":"ams1"
|
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The *type* field has the value *tcpdump*.
|
|
|
|
|
To my knowledge I have never initiated a tcpdump on any of my droplets, and I didn't think it was possible.
|
|
|
|
|
In fact, I haven't been able to verify that it is or has been possible at all!
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I'm still happy with DigitalOcean, although this looks a bit suspicious - I have no idea why they would run a tcpdump on my droplet.
