Suspicious Files Consuming Storage on IPFS Node - Possible Hack?
I have been running an IPFS node on AWS for my project for the past 3 months, and it has been consuming storage excessively. Upon inspecting the files through the web UI, I discovered a folder named "systemfiles" containing anime files totaling around 132GB, ranging from 300MB to 6GB each. I have never downloaded or accessed anime content on IPFS. Could my node have been hacked, or is there another explanation for these files appearing on my system? Any insights or guidance on how to investigate and resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated.

1It is likely that Kubo does not store files in their original form; instead, it likely chunks and distributes them across various databases. This approach makes it challenging to identify the content, such as anime, solely based on the file structure.
Regarding the issue you are facing, it is improbable that IPFS is responsible for this behavior. To investigate further, you should verify if the administration port 5001 is left open. It is crucial to ensure that this port is not accessible to prevent any potential security breaches.
