settings.ini.php corruption

[lettore]

Hello, I run multiple Muximux instances in Docker with Linuxserver image, data is persisted on a Gluster volume.
Randomly I get error accessing the webpage and I found that the culprit is the file settings.ini.php that become corrupted.
I can understand this if I have modified the settings so Muximux is writing to the file, but it seems that Muximux keeps writing to this file also during normal operation. I tried to deny write access to this file but then Muximux webpage remains stuck loading.
I'm wondering what is the problem, I know Gluster is not ideal for storing data like databases, but a simple text file should not have this kind of problems, and this happens only with Muximux.

I run Muximux with the linuxserver.io docker image and I've had the same issue for a couple of weeks now. I've deleted the file, even the entire directory, and set it all up from scratch every time but it only runs for a couple of days before it gets corrupted again. Normally it's just been gargled towards the end with random characters added but today the entire file looks like this:

; <?php die('Access denied'); ?>
[0x]
[0] = "androxgh0st"

Androxgh0st seems to be a worm on some sort. Should I be worried?

Got the same problem recently. Settings are not protected and could lead to a potential security breach, unless you require auth to access muximux.
