Description
The firewall rule allows incoming SSH (port 22) connections from any IP address (0.0.0.0/0), exposing your servers to the public internet. This configuration makes SSH access unrestricted and easily discoverable.
Impact
Attackers could attempt to brute-force SSH credentials or exploit SSH vulnerabilities, potentially gaining unauthorized access to your servers. This increases the risk of data breaches, system compromise, and further attacks within your cloud environment.
