From 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: egg82 <eggys82@gmail.com> Date: Sat, 11 Sep 2021 22:55:14 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Add root/admin user detection This patch detects whether or not the server is currently executing as a privileged user and spits out a warning. The warning serves as a sort-of PSA for newer server admins who don't understand the risks of running as root. We've seen plenty of bad/malicious plugins hit markets, and there's been a few close-calls with exploits in the past. Hopefully this helps mitigate some potential damage to servers, even if it is just a warning.
