Security readout for executives and security teams

This issue exposes files created during interactive shell use on Cobalt RaQ microservers. Sensitive artifacts such as .bash_history could be world-readable and reachable through the web server, potentially revealing commands, paths, usernames, or operational details. Exposure is likely limited to legacy Cobalt RaQ microservers or preserved deployments based on that platform. Modern environments are affected only if they still operate these systems or have migrated web-accessible home-directory content containing historical shell artifacts. Treat this as a legacy exposure cleanup item unless Cobalt RaQ systems are still internet-facing. If present externally, prioritize containment because leaked shell history can reveal credentials, architecture, or administrative behavior. Mitigation focus: Check vendor or archival Cobalt guidance for supported fixes.; Remove shell history and sensitive dotfiles from web-served paths.; Restrict web access to dotfiles and user home artifacts..
