This to me means the devs have access to the prod keys, even to the external services... not good.

No, the process failed. They should NOT have access to prod API keys.. It actually shows how ABnB treats security of prod secrets.

#74Certainly some dev's fuck-up. Now it is interesting to see how they will handle it. My sympathy goes to the poor guy who made the mistake.

Maybe. But given the culture at most of these places I'd expect the junior to be explained that it's ok, everybody makes mistakes. Some engineering manager is probably sweating bigger buckets over their failure to properly secure casual human access to prod stuff, which is definitely not ok. Meanwhile the both of them are really really relieved that the notification contents were completely innocuous and not some sick inside joke that would have been massively offensive out of context.

Its the process, not the dev. A Dev should never have access to prod secrets, it show flaws in ABnB security model and tells me a fair bit around how the work with dev/deployment.
